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

Everyone is on Twitter.. I can ask a busy Author and get a answer.. I can ask an Actor a question get an answer.. Same goes for a weatherman or woman.. A Book seller or buyer,

People get on Twitter to pass the time, information, gossip,religion, hook you up with there business..

Why do you go on Twitter?

I go to talk to my family weather person.. To talk to some of the Authors I find on there..To fellow bookseller who sell on www.ecrater.com   You will find I have two stores on ecrater… www.readerwave.ecrater.com  and www.shotglassheaven.com  

One thing I will be looking for is someone who can advise me on photographs of shot glasses.. They are hard to take especially the clear ones with a little writing.  Some of mine at www.shotglassheaven.com  are really bad…

Now books I can do pretty good… And I have been selling more and more lately.. Thanks to everyone what ever way you find me… Let me know what you are looking for…I list more by author than I do my say romance, mystery, which is a better way if you were buying? 

would love to get some comments… thanks for reading my blogs….

Authors start thinking of ideas, Books come out of the ideas,Book Sellers move the books(me) and Reader’s pickup the books and take them home (You).  Today we are going to concentrate on making a better way to do this and help you see what you are missing by not looking, seeing, and buying books from me. Why you don’t even read my blog anymore or any-less… Remember Yes things are great today. and I will do my best to see that My bookstore will survive. And then there is my shot glass store shotglassheaven… in the next few days we will be adding more merchandise. Come check us out….

We have local author Joe Bullard’s book Waiting For Agnes (New paperback) in three places… Amazon at $22.00, eBay at 19.50 and eCRATER at 19.00, all three places are great.the difference in price is to pay for what the company’s charge me to sell there… The only one that does money orders is eCRATER… They are just as good a store as the rest maybe a little less known…. I have had lots of sales there just people are not use to going back and leaving feedback. Feedback is an important thing to a buyer and seller.. Tells the buyer how good the Seller has done on past sales.. I have over 2000 on eBay you can look at… then go somewhere else to find me if you like…

I sell at our local Flee Market on Saturdays also. You can comment here and leave word of what books you are looking for.. I look on Fridays to find books where ever I go… and sometimes  find places during the week while I am out.  I will be running a couple of sales this weekend… so check it out.  Please let me know you are reading my blog… Its nice to hear…. You can find me on Twitter also… Have a good day and picture of the day is…….
