Goodbye Amazon and eBay

Friday, September 25th, 2009

Due to rising cost and changing polices.. Amazon and eBay have seen the last of my books.. I sell well on both. But I have to pay such high fees that I can’t price my books at the cost I want to give my customers.  I have been selling one book on both sites and its not worth it anymore.. Amazon has a new policy that I have to send the book or item to the customer before they pay me.  Then if there is a problem I have to fight to get my money.. I dropped them the minute I read that.. Also they charge $5.99 for selling so I have to price things way up to get my money and authors money out of it..  eBay is raising and raising there prices… I am just a simple store who does a few products a week… I am not one of there high end sellers… I do this to please the customer and myself.  If I had to make a living at it. Never happen.. I sell to low…

My dream is to have my own bookstore someday… I have seen what I want to do from several others I know of. It can be done.. I just need capital and a good head start… So its my dream… and a good one.

Any ways I am on eCRATER.  The price and location is just right for me and my book store. I also have a shot glass store…. www.readerwave.ecrater.com      www.shotglassheaven.ecrater.com

Things will be wonderful today… Going to try to clean off my coffee table of all the shot glasses  that  Gene took pictures of  well over a week ago… Need to enter them into http://shotglassheaven.ecrater.com

Anyone reading this and coming to the Flee Market I will take a trade book and 25 cents for each book you want… I will take trade ins and hold a credit for you. So bring in your books and we will keep a tab…

We are going to go looking at cars and trucks.. used for my hauling of books..  I need to get more business going… Maybe ad in the paper will help… Sometimes you have to spend money to make money.

Friday yard sales you need to get your books out for me to look at… picture of the day
