This is so true! I found a book in a slip cover at the thrift store last week. I don’t buy books normally but I opened it up. The book was signed and numbered 17 out of 200. It was also a first edition and in mint condition. It’s worth about $400 and I paid $1.59. I am going to pay more attention to the book section now. 😀
Wow!!!
whoaaa
WHAT???!! SCORE!!! Guess I’d better pay closer attention too.
@@southernmermaid2526 yup!
I watched this last night and went today to the thrift store down the street from my house and found 3 of these types of books, one was a FIRST EDITION! I am hooked! I am a bibliophile anyway but this cemented it. Thanks for sharing this information, as a new reseller it is invaluable!
So glad you liked it. Please subscribe. Thank you

I picked up two copies of a book at a dispersal sale thinking to keep the signed/numbered one for my own library and sell the unsigned one. Then, in the unsigned one, I found a letter from the author thanking the owner (who was a major book collector) for his assistance in writing the book and for providing some photos which were returned with a proof copy of the finished book - yes, the envelope with the photos was tucked in the back of the book! I now have two copies of the book in my library - a signed, numbered first edition and a proof copy (which was signed but in a different place to the numbered one) with the letter and photos.
Signed one is worth $4-500 (on eBay). I have no idea what the other one would be worth (and you would probably have to sell it through a"real" rare book sale to get the correct price).
That is amazing! Thanks for sharing that story!
Another tip -- if the book is illustrated, do like Dom and include the name of the artist(s) in your description and (if possible) the subject line of your listing. Sometimes the artwork gives the book additional value.
Very true. Thanks Tom!
Hi Dominic! I usually snub books but no longer! I’m intrigued because I go to so many estate sales in big houses with libraries which feels overwhelming but now I have a target 🎯🥳🥳🥳
Awesome. You gotta tag me when you get one.
I don’t think I’ve ever even seen a book with a slip cover case??? I guess I’ve just looked over them. I won’t do that again! Thanks for the info!💜
Hey Dom. I really appreciate your content. I learn a lot from you and Don.
Slip cover books are definitely a good indicator. Not always great sales but they are a good indicator.
Something that might be another good thing to talk about would be first edition vs first printing and how to identify each. (TBH old books without barcodes are the first ones I look for.)
Thank you for all of the great tips!! I will be keeping an eye out for these!
Sure thing!
I have been watching you for a while on my personal account. I just started this channel to document my what solds. Today my what sold was 1 item.. Hopefully one day ill be at your level 😂. Thank you for always sharing such great content!
Great information Dom. I will look closer at the books. I usually pick up vintage Cookbooks. Thanks
I didn't catch the live, but watched later. I was screaming THE BOX! THE SLIP COVER! But of course to no avail. I spent most of my day literally trekking down to my shop and my mail box with packages in the snow with my hiking poles. They are calling for more tonight. I am so ready for summer
Thank you for your knowledge, I will definitely be looking for these while I'm out rummaging.
Great!
WOW. I live between DC & Baltimore, an area w/a lot of history...& A lot of estate sales. I've passed by dozens of these, especially as an FBA seller. I sell on eBay too, but I was willing to take a smaller cut on Amazon for a quicker turn-around & using FBA storage.
I will NEVER pass a slip-cover again. Ever.
I get excited when I see slipcovered books, always called them boxed sets myself, but yeah, adds to the value!
I had no idea. I have some books with slip cases! Gonna check them out. Thank You!
Great!
Excellent advice! I would not have thought to be on the lookout for those... 👍😍
Wow, great information. Thank you !!💞
I love your videos because I aaalways learn something. Have never paid attention to this kind of books. Tomorrow Im going to an estate sale. will be on the lookout!! thank you!
Thanks and let me know if you find one!
@@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter Just came back home, was on the lookout, didnt find any. But will definitely let you know when I do find one!
@@inea815 great
excellent - very informative and thanks for the infectious enthusiasm
Thanks!
One of the best comics - Calvin & Hobbes! That and the Far Side!
Great info! I've always passed on books, will think twice now.
I have so many of these slip covered books, mostly collections of books on individual artists, periods in history, and literature . I would never sell them they are some of my most valued treasures, but I’m so excited to look at them from a monetary standpoint after watching this video. Thanks so much.
My pleasure Julie. Slipcover books only allow for a sneak peak of what’s inside. lol
Stop it now! Just kidding but all this laughing is giving me a stomach ache. One of my biggest tests for intelligence is a quick wit, and of course you equate a slip cover on a book with a sneak peak😂
@@julieschwartz2135 😂😂😂 Imagine what Mrs PT has to deal with every day. Lol
I guessed Slipcase, I bought nine slipcase books last Sunday at the 4th day of an estate sale. ( $1.00 each). Took pictures this afternoon and plan to list this week. Last year I sold 4 EC box sets with slipcases for serious money. I have some slip case's I've saved I might try listing them alone. Would love to talk to you sometime about having books grade, I owned a comic store in the 90's and have some inventory I just sat on.
Wow! This was super helpful! I’m on the look out now! Thank you!! Also - cool shout out
Tag me when you find one! Butterfly power!
@@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter of course
Great info. Thank you
I really enjoyed this!!
I love "Nighthawk" as well. Saw the original at the Art Institute of Chicago. It was awesome.
Great stuff!
Great info to know!! Thanks!!
Thanks!
Good stuff, good video , keep them coming ! Thanks !
Thanks Mike!
Very helpful, thank you!
Sure thing!
Thanks for this!!! Great tip!!!
My no. 1 item to source is vintage books. I knew this added value but not this much, thanks.
Sure thing!!
Good advice, as usual. Thanks.
Great content! Thank you.
Thanks!
My favorite running joke was “the tree is first base but not on Tuesdays, the shrub is second base but if you hit a fly ball you have to hop to it...” reminds me of my boss who I can never predict 😅
What is that from? Lol
@@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter from when Calvin and Hobbs would play Calvin ball. You said to leave a comment if we liked Calvin and Hobbs and I remember sneaky Calvin would make the rules so hard!
Have a slip cover version of an Audubon bird guide two volume set. As you said most walked away probably because the slipcover was backwards and it showed a lot of cracking and peeling on the spine of but the books inside were in perfect shape I'm pretty sure I'm going to do well on that. I never passed them up either Prime Time. By the way Calvin and Hobbes along with Far Side are two of my very favorites of all time 👍
Same here Gary. Absolutely love both of those series!
Thank You for the awesome knowledge
Sure thing. Thanks for watching!
I feel like I have a signed Calvin &Hobbs book of course it's in my pile. After this video makes me want to list some books! Thanks for the info
My pleasure Gwen!
It's possible but very, very unlikely. Watterson is notoriously private and almost never interacts with fans. The only authentic Watterson sigs I know of came from a handful of book signings he did early in his career before C&H really took off.
Thanks for sharing !
Sure thing!
Knowledge is power! Thanks DOM!
Thanks Robbie!
I thought that the answer was, "that it's a game". I have some cool old games that look like books in slipcovers ♥
Good guess!
Now I have something else to look for at sales! Very interesting! 🙂
Yay me! You kept showing all angles and I said "it's boxed!"
Good for me. I don't generally sell on ebay and sell very little hard goods. I want to sell more on ebay but somehow when I set up my account I ended up with a computer generated user name. I can't quite figure out how it happened or how to fix it and it bummed me out. Lol
You get a gold star! ⭐️ good luck with the computer!
@@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter
Bah. Phuck computers. I hate them. I was learning binary code when I was 11. By 1986 I only found them fun for target practice. Lol
Hate them!!!!!! Lolol
Great video Dom , thanks very much for sharing, new subscriber here from Northern Ireland
Welcome to the Prime Time family!
Thanks Dom
Bout Time David! Welcome Welcome 👏👏💖👩🌾
Lol Noel , thanks boss
First time on your channel Dom! Over from Don’s! Love the Spider Man Comics!!
Thanks AJ. Please subscribe.
Great video thanks again
Thank you!
I remember old encyclopedias used to have those slip covers on them
Great info. ❤ 📚
Hey there Dom! Where would you say the best place to sell books is? We have an EBay store.. never really focused on books..
Ebay and Amazon for sure
I sold some kids book sets in the slip box/covers for $60 and more. I love selling these types of books.
So much fun!
I struggle find the books I have some of them anywhere to learn more about it. To price it.. I struggle with old books, postcards, marbles, records the only things in my home I struggle learning on.. findin info.
Folio Society are known for making these, been going for years. Some are worth a fair bit and worth keeping an eye out for. I found a sealed lord of the flies for £1, sold it for £160.
My Mom had that set of books. I would look at those pictures as a child. I don't know what happened to them or where they are at this point.
Thanks awesome video im just starting out top tip.. cheers
Thanks Ken! Please subscribe!
I noticed you offered Free shipping. Approximately how much was the shipping?
Good info Dom
Thanks!
Is it a facsimile copy of a first edition classic? Maybe put out by First Edition Library? It looks like some of the books I picked up from a thrift store a few years back for $3.99 a book. I flipped them for some really good profit. If I remember correctly I flipped a few for around $100. That’s my guess😊. Now back to the video. 😊
Good guess!
Nice video. Thank you. I'm a long time fan of Bill Watterson.
Love him!
I'm going to the last day of an estate sale Sunday. I'm going to see what was left behind i. Books, if any. Today was the 1st day and I couldn't go 😭.
Oh no!
Excellent ! I love books ! WOW! Great price!
Thanks Dom!
Thanks for raising your hand! Hope you liked the shout out!
I still have slipcover books in my bedroom at my mom’s from when I was a kid! It may be time to let them go lol I know I have Emily Bronte! I noticed “Mary” thought the book was old, any coincidence there? 😂😂😂 It was a fun way to start the video but I didn’t know the slip covers added so much value, thank you! Liked and shared, hugs to Daisy and take care! 😀
Oh yes, you were so nice to raise your hand 🙋♀️. Thanks so much for participating. You get an A. Lol
@@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter woohoo, first one since 8th grade 😂 👩🎓
@@MaryMcQuain 😂😂😂
@@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter 😁😆😂
I would keep the Edward Hooper set. Helpful, thanks.
I paused the video, and guessing this could be a MEDICAL REFERENCE BOOK🤔. Now continue watching❣️
Good guess Mindy!
@@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter Thank you:)
Great tips, Dom. Another niche to learn just enough about to be semi dangerous!
You’ll be crushing these too soon! 📚
Loved the video
Thank you!
Books are my passion, especially old children’s books, where there is a great demand for dustcovers, no book. In addition to appealing to book collectors, dustcovers also appeal to people interested in ephemera and art.
BRILLIANT!
the slip cover?? I love the elegance of this style!
It looks to me like a heritage press Edition. Am I close? I guess I will watch the video and find out
Wow, great SOLD prices. I will be looking closer at the books now. 🤓
For sure!
because it's olive drab? wow, this video is blowing up! Great video man!
Lol, it’s crazy 😜 thanks for watching!!! Good guess
I always pick up slip cased books whenever I see them, seems like a pretty safe bet.
Have you ever bought and sold sports trading card? Any videos?

Hi Dom. I'm not able to get into the FB Reseller Resource Group anymore. I get this error: "This Content Isn't Available Right Now
When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted." I had recently posted an answer to a member to assist them in how to go about using eBay that included a link to Pirateship which was removed as I was not aware that it could not be included. Have I been banned?
What was your name in the group?

@@elvibora1111 I didn’t block you but a moderator did. I unblocked you but I can’t do that again. You must be sure to be familiar with all rules before posting which includes no links at all without permission. You can apply again but once in, best to lie low for a few weeks. Thanks.
I have several books and sets in slipcases that I've been holding on to for 40 or more years. Never read or even look at them. Guess its time to sell to someone who will enjoy and appreciate :-)
Was that a library card on the front page? Are old library books worth looking at for resale?
No it was an old name sticker. Yes to 2nd question
Really cool find. Great video. I have been doing a lot of research on quick ways to find 1st edition books. It is so funny how when i am researching the subject. you always seem to have a video at the right time. Enjoy watching your old videos as well. Thanks
@@harryloomisnewandused2886 well, I am a neuropsychologist do I know what you are thinking before you do 😂😂😂 thanks!
@@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter Lol. My wife started watching your channel a few months back, and she started selling on posh and mecari. We both really enjoy your channel and we do appreciate you. Thanks. Looking forward to the next one.
@@harryloomisnewandused2886 so glad to have you both in the Prime Time family!
It’s in a slipcover, and it looks like it has an early paper label.
Liked and shared, what are you doing with this video? Yes liking and sharing!
It’s in an old cardboard sleeve?
⭐️
Is it a periodical index?
Good guess
Because it’s in a hard case shell that you slide it in
After the first 5 seconds of watching, my guess is "Readers Digest Condensed Books." ;) (IRL, I think even an empty but uncleaned can of Campbell's Condensed Soup would be worth more.)
Second guess - Gutenberg Bible reprinted by the Franklin Mint.
Third guess - Slipcase Edition of Poor Richard's Almanac.
Good guesses!
Pity I missed the live of this. Assuming it was from you answering questions. Never pass up a slip cased book. Always check it. Yu never know what you will find.
That was just me acting. Sounds like I did somewhat of a good job with it. LOL
@@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter Yes, you did. I was looking for a live chat replay!
@@thisoverstuffedhouse lol that’s funny
I pick Daisy to give the answer.
Good Answer 👏👏👏👏😅🙄👩🌾
Have you ever bought off ebay, and resold for more. Or is that a no no. I find nice stuff cheap.. never buy.. I wasn't sure.
Yep! I have a video about that here: ua-cam.com/video/gFF06VVC0cU/v-deo.html
What if the older books smell musty?
It usually does not matter unless it is vile and damp.
@@PrimeTimeTreasureHunter Thank you!!
empty book box?? lol will keep watching,
Courier and Ives platebook
Good guess
Let's go primetime 🎆✨🌠
I had no idea Hopper had books.
Interesting huh?
I have no idea..
Part of a book set
Old Rare 1st Edition?
Good guess!
Love C & H
It is cased
⭐️⭐️⭐️
Because it's in a slip cover!

It's in a slip case.
