    A few months ago I went through all of our books, kids, adult all types. Out of 60+ books they wanted 2!! This was ziffit and we (don't) buy books...

    Now tell them how it’s a minimum price of $5-7.50 in order for the sale to be completed. Most items range from .05-.20 on average. That’s up to 50 books to make $7.50 just to send them out. It’s a nice way to clean out storage but not a business model.

    My best media buy was about 5 boxes at auction of DVDs. A lot of old science fiction series and documentaries which did OK but the big earner was 2 boxes of railway DVDs. I sold loads of train ones for in the region of £5 - £10 each, i think they cost me about 10p each in the auction.

    The problem with selling books is that the postage cost is usually so high that no one wants to buy them.

    The ScanAngel app gets a 'No' from me. An advert before every scan that is made and not banner ads either but full on annoying videos with audio for chat apps and the like - just awful. Ran three Playstation 1 games and a PC game through it and got a 'nil' each time. I removed the app almost immediately.

Like say I’ve got 1000 books so would like to hear back from you

    I have got around 5000+ DVDs, CDs and games after inheriting the collection of a family member. I did come across your videos and thought of scanning them but after one box, I realised it’s definitely not my cup of cake… Scanning through one box for a few quids..Not for me. If anyone wants them, can have a look at them, just come and offer me a price. I am based in London.

    I know you've already sold it now so it doesn't really matter, but that Enjoy The Rumours CD is a bootleg and eBay doesn't really like people selling them types of CDs on there. Just be careful picking up unofficial bootleg CDs because there's always the chance eBay could remove the listing.

  • @traceywindle962
    @traceywindle962 Рік тому +3

    Nic, these book buying apps make me wonder if this is a way of removing certain books from society, especially original, historical, informative books. In this era we are in now, they are b a n n i n g and c o n f i s c a t I n g certain fact and fiction books. Could we all just bare this in mind, and sell those types of books a different way, and sell to actual people who want those type of books. We must keep them in society.

      John 3:16-21
      16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
      Mark 1.15
      15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
      2 Peter 3:9
      The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
      Hebrews 11:6
      6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

    Unfortunately for dvds and blurays it does not compare prices with CEX and the prices given on the app were on average half of what CEX were offering for the same items so until it includes price comparison with CEX it really is of only any use with books. However if they can integrate CEX pricing then it could prove really useful.

    This sounds good, thanks for sharing! Wish I'd seen it a few days ago, as I've recently scanned a heap of books for Ziffit and WeBuyBooks and it got a tad confusing sorting out which was the best price. I normally find Ziffit the best - and it did end up with three boxfuls - but got some surprisingly good prices on a boxful of books for WeBuy. Sometimes it's hard to predict what they'll like!

    love the channel, but you are getting ridiculous prices with buying books at 0,10/020 cents a book...?! People who are selling you that should be locked up really. Getting books for cheap anywhere else where your buying at thriftstores/flea markets, etc is around 1 tot 2 euro/pound, for the rest of Europe, etc. Most thriftstores are selling books for more, especially bigger non fiction art books etc. So love the channel but this flip option you are doing is for the 1% of resellers I think who can do this. Or if you are getting books for free. Have a good one and keep up the good work!
