Oh! Thanks for the recap! I did miss that.....

It's a great idea! I do have a lot of books to get rid of. Mostly fiction and hard cover and all in like new condition.

Amazon.com is a easy way to sell electronics, DVDs and books. The USPS flat rate envelope makes for a simple way to mail your sales too, if it fits.

The book market has gone downhill so much that it's just not worth it to try to sell used books. $1-2 each just isn't worth my time. I have unused signed first edition hard cover books that I can't get $5 for when they use to sell for $50- $100 ten years ago.

I bet the purchaser of that teapot will be real surprised to find out that's an engraving not a reflection...

Laptop RAM - 2x 512MB PC3200
 

Upgraded the memory in my laptop, and am unlikely to find a use for this my own self in the future. Details:

Super Talent 512MB DDR-400 PC3200 SO-DIMM

These modules aren't worth enough to try selling. I'm more than happy to mail them to you (snail mailing RAM is cheap...), but I insist that they go to a loving home where they'll be installed and be the holders of your precious data, and not to sit in a dusty drawer somewhere. (I guess just using one is fine, but you'll get both :)

EDIT: forgot to mention, I don't check the board much so please use PM or e-mail.

No, I think this is reason enough for you to be posting on LoT on a regular basis :D

I have pet steps two sets that were handmade when we got Lucy and Ethel. Anyone want them? The girls don't need them yet and when they do my store has some really great ones. I really don't want to throw these away either. Any takers?

I wish I lived closer to you! My dog struggles to haul himself up on my bed all the time and sometimes he even misses. He's not small, but apparently my bed is rather high.

It has, but I've been a slow and steady seller on amazon and some other items on ebay. Suprisingly, I've sold some books that have multiple listings for .01 for $5 on amazon (Scott berg's bio of Charles Lindbergh as a case in point) I stuck it up for $5 with tons of competing books from $5 down to .01. It took a little while, but it sold just before Xmas. The truly rare I will post on ebay first or price accordingly on amazon. It may take a while, but so far, I can't complain. I've also weeded down the DVDs, but on those I priced them to sell, I did not make a profit, but in this economy, every extra $5 helps. I think if you are selling on amazon, it pays to scan the cover (if there is not one), check for multiple listings on the same book/DVD and if it's collectible, make sure you mark it as such. A good desciption is also helpful.

That's just my .02, but like the tortoise, slow and steady has been working for me.

Anyone want my sense of optimism? I haven't used it for years.
