@@nickwoo1 Hi Nicholas. Just curious as to where you are. You haven't published any new UA-cam content in over a month and your Instagram page seems to have been deleted. I sure hope all is well with you and yours. I am missing your great content.
Does Amazon pickup books to put in their warehouse if your close to a distribution center. and if not you said you ship your books and are you taking into consideration that cost when you finalize your profit?
So $75 a month just to start? If I wanted to just donit as a hobby or yo fet a little extra cash every now and then, do you recommend to just stick to the Amazon reseller app? Sorry, new at this.
Thanks! I followed your advice and downloaded this app. It’s much easier to understand than i expected. I also like the ability to check completed eBay sales with Scoutly.
I’m glad it’s working for you!! I didn’t know you could use it to check completed eBay sales! So thank you for that info! I’m going to learn all about it. 😃
So wait, you need a monthly subscription aswell as an amazon seller account to use the app? Is there anyway to use it without needing the Amazon account?
Hi! I just downloaded the Scoutly app and I love what I see from it. My question was when you go to a thrift store to scan used books, what should your basic trigger be set at as compared to when you go to scan new books?
Was having trouble with my scanner watch the lens if it gets scuffed by the laser it wont work good peeps wanted to comment on this video just to say you look like Doc Holiday
Hello! I have recently been watching your videos on book selling and Amazon FBA. I have a question about the ScoutIQ app. I started playing with the app last night with some books I found in my parents basement. A lot of them actually came up with a nice profit, however no prices were showing in the “FBA” column, rather only the “all” column. Does this mean these types of books wouldn’t be good ones to sell on Amazon?
so all that means is that the people that are selling those books are selling them as merchant fulfilled instead of fulfilled by Amazon. I would say that if the profit is there and the books are under 1Million rank, they would probably be worth sending to Amazon as FBA. If they are higher than 1M rank, than you might want to sell them as merchant fulfilled. I hope that answers your question. :)
I like these business models much better than dropshipping. Most of dropshipping is pipe dreams. Example cheap iPhone 12 case off allieexpress. Alibaba whatever. #1 shopping is like 2 months. #2 I promise you Allie has its own eBay account as well doing the same thing cheaper then you can. The only way I see this working is buying say 20 cases for 75 cent a piece 2$ shipped and when they come selling for 6 because you can now ship faster which makes your item worth more. But then theirs shipping and eBay fees. How does that ever work? Lol
Hi Nick, your videos are awesome! I got a question though: when you enter all your inventory into Amazon, do you put the actual price you paid for each book to keep track of the total profits, or just the average price you usually pay for them? Thank you!!
hi, very interesting videos, thank you. Question, you haven't mentioned anything about shipping costs of your inventory to Amazon Distribution locations. What are those costs, and, how much does that take out of your "computed" profit?
Either way if doable for a part time seller, but if you want to keep more profit, FBM is the way to go. (This is strictly my opinion.) It will require a bit more work though.
Scoutify 2, scoutly, scoutiq, and [the worse of the bunch] profit bandit all have their pluses and minuses but when comparing from a feasible perspective it just makes sense to use scoutly. Scoutiq is cool but paying $44 then having to pay a listing app anywhere from $24-$34 cuts in to the bottom line. Scoutly + turbo lister aren't the best but I make them work for me.

humbleanger I agree. And if I’m not mistaken, some of those that you mentioned don’t show “days with sales” (Scoutly does), which IMO is very important information! You can correct me if I’m wrong on that. Thanks for you feedback!
@@nickwoo1 I'll jump in and say yes, you're correct; and, I think Scoutly IS by far the best. Its only real weak point is the same as that of all 3rd-party software, Amazon's API limitations.
Hi Nicholas, great videos! :) Love the white board idea for goals. Going to sign up for Scoutly and seeing it comes with Turbo Lister, do you not use this app?
Hi Nicholas this was a great video because I was having issues with my triggers and you really explainded it well. Also I know sales rank sometimes doesn't tell the whole picture but what sales rank do you stick with when it comes to books. I had my trigger set at 1 million but I think I should move it back to 700,00 thousands. Thanks
Getting my subscription. Finally starting
0:49 I had a heart attack when I thought my volume broke so I put it all the way up, so I do, and then I hear that upbeat music... My heart shattered
Finally starting
Thank you. 😁
I love your attitude. Thanks so much for publishing great content that is real and not just a bunch of hype like so many other so-called FBA gurus.
I really appreciate that! Thank you for the feedback!

What is the long number at the top
That is the upc code when you scan the bar code that number fills in and give the information on the book. Gl

How do you profit $18 per book for a total of $540 per 30 books? That’s a lot of solid books. I’d imagine most profits are minimal.
How long does it take to create the listing of a product on Amazon?
I couldn't figure out how to use this app. Very informative. Thank you!
I’m glad it was helpful!
Is it better the ScoutIQ?
So $75 a month just to start? If I wanted to just donit as a hobby or yo fet a little extra cash every now and then, do you recommend to just stick to the Amazon reseller app? Sorry, new at this.
I’ve been using this app not knowing anything tbh thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️
How much is db mode?

Awesome videos, man!
Great video. I like the goal planning for the future that you went over. Thanks - Thom
How much is the app ?
Are you exporting the scanned books to Excel or manually entering the data into Excel? Thanks Nick
This is very motivating! 👍🏽👏🏽👍🏽
Hi Nick, thanks for sharing. How much upto is good bsr in Canada for used books and toys?

What percent of inventory would you set as a goal for your first month?
I bet you this guy likes axe throwing
What makes you say that? (I've been once, but it wasn't that great. Or rather, I'm not good at it haha)
Thank you for all these helpful information. :)

Thanks Man
What happens when there is no price under FBA?
and is this almost the same tool as "keepa"?
Thank you

Does that app also calculate storage fees?
Is it not recommended to sell a book that does not have an FBA seller?
Just realized tomorrow is the 29th 🤔not sure if you planned one but I would love to see an update

Problem Nicholas, that when you faced your whiteboard in this video, we lost the volume.
I want to sell books on part time on Amazon. What's better? Sell as merchant or FBA?
Either way if doable for a part time seller, but if you want to keep more profit, FBM is the way to go. (This is strictly my opinion.) It will require a bit more work though.

Does this app calculate in shippings cost and fees for FBA when it gives you a reject or profit? If not, can you calculate those into the algorithm?
Yes
Yes it does. The FBA fees are auto calculated, ad then you can manually set up what your estimated shipping costs will be.

Great info! Is Scoulty free? I'm getting conflicting info on the net.
No, Scoutly is not free. But the Amazon Seller App is free.
I've been researching this business idea for a little while, are there any free options to selling that are possibly more time consuming?
Great content, thank you.

With that mustache you could have been Wyatt Earp back in the day, lol.
