Help with HALF.com

[LouisLady]

Hello, is any1 familiar with selling books on HALF.com?

I see it says that listing is free, but how much do they charge once my item has been sold?

 

[Berlyn]

Not sure but its not much, I sold some textbooks on there and after fees it was still worth it to sell. They also pay for shipping in advance as far as I can tell.

 

[LouisLady]

really? Could u explain to me a bit on how that reimbursement works?

Let's say I listed a book for $65..

Thanks!

I just pulled up an old inventory receipt from my half...I sold a book for $62, they took a $7.75 commission and reimbursed me $2.64 or so for shipping.

 

[LouisLady]

wow! thats not so bad! I would make more $ selling it on half.com then sellin it to the schools bookstore!

 

[Berlyn]

Yes definitely sell on half if you can, school bookstores rape old textbook worth and then sell it back to other students @ $10 off regular retail

Is half.com only valid in the United States still?

If it's academic books/textbooks etc you're interested in, I have had a lot of success with academicbooktrade.co.uk and it is completely free for unlimited listing.
