Selling Books, DVDs and Cds on Half.com - The Millilo Book Store

Robert and I have accumulated many books over the years as well as many are from the auctions we have won. Many people have told us about their success with selling their books on www.half.com . Half.com is affiliated with Ebay and runs similar to purchasing and selling books on Amazon. However, there are no up front listing fees on Half.com and your books/movies/video games/music stay on their site until you remove them or sell them. Once you make a sale they email you to notify you to send the item to the purchaser. Half.com collects a small percentage of the sale and sends you a credit for shipping costs twice a month on all of your sales.

Since we heard so much about Half.com we finally decided to list some books this past weekend. We listed 30 books on Sunday afternoon and to our surprise on Monday morning we had our first sale. Yesterday we sold 2 more books. Wow! How easy was that! Last night we listed another 14 more books so now we have our own little book shop. We’ll be adding to it periodically since we have many many more books to sell. If you’d like to check out “The Millilo Book Store” click on this link http://shops.half.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?HalfSearch&seller=getitnow1013 or click on the link to the right side of the page call “Millilo Book Store”. It will take you directly to all the books we are selling to help pay for the adoption of our daughter. It’s another way to fundraise for your adoption. It’s easy to set up an account with Half.com especially if you already have an Ebay id.

One nice thing about listing on Half.com you don’t need to type the description in to the listing. Since all you do is type in the ISBN number (number near the bar code) it pulls up the picture of the cover of the book, description and the price ranges of other people selling the same book for. All you need to do is describe the condition and put in your price. It’s that easy. Much easier than Ebay and your listings stay on as long as you want and you don’t get charged for any fees until you sell the item/s. Give it a whirl with a few books you have laying around the house. You might be pleasantly surprised.
