How thorough and transparent u are explaining this is ridiculous. You’ve help me more than any other TH-camr on this topic. Thanks
Nice! That's what they are for. Glad it helped.
One thing to keep in mind with the old dictionaries: There are book collectors that collect only dictionaries. If you come across an English dictionary from the 1800s, check to see if it is a dictionary for the English that were printed for them to keep up with the rapidly changing American-English lexicons. These are unique and sought after by collectors. They are more likely to be found, though, in New England than in your neck of the woods.
Thanks Lynn. Old books are so cool to see in person. I always am trying to find them. You just helped many.
you and the commonwealth picker are very helpful Iam getting ready to get starter
All the best. Thank you for watching.
Another great video. I'm trying to build my ebay store up a bit more before I invest in Amazon, but this gets me fired up to try it.
Yeap....and this one was a very light find of books. Usually I have three full binds.
I am very happy I discovered your channel, ya! I watch a few sellers who buy vintage glass. Kinda depressing, can't see all the money they say they make. I really want to do this, scared girl in Arizona;
Cherly, never be afraid of this. RESELLING isn't that hard, just take your time and watch many of us on TH-cam and take a little from each channel. One step at a time. Sell, one thing then two and three.....and soon you will be off and running. Thanks for watching. ;
This is really something I should explore. I kill it on books on eBay, and have over 40 years experience in books. Thanks for your posts, and I love watching them.
Thanks Book Guy. Good money on AMAZON.
@@goldenstatepicker Thanks, I love your channel.
Joe btw
Good stuff 👊
Thanks for watching GRINGO.
Great content! I've caught the book bug after flipping a $2 GW book for $150.00 on Ebay in less a week.
Now I want to branch out to FBA. Question: Does Amazon require a minimum number of books for each shipment? and
Do you write off the whole $100 bin as cost of goods?
Subscribed a few months ago and like your style of providing actionable advice AND a peek into your strategy.
Keep up the great job! Your one of only 4 resellers I follow. So tired of the all flash nonsense out there.
Doug you can put any amount in but it is best to put the weight limit in. 50LBS is the limit and you don't want to go over. The cost to ship said weight for me is $9.79. It's like MEDIA MAIL on steroids and it goes UPS. Yes, I write off the whole bin as a cost of doing business. Thanks again for watching my friend.
Thanks so much for all the book/amazon info! I watched your other video you did recently and just set up my Amazon seller account and FBA. Now I need to get the software lined up and a thermal printer. I have several hundred books I have collected to resell and haven't listed yet. Uggh! So will scan those first. I have a pretty good eye for picking (been doing it over 20 years on eBay). I was wondering about the reject bin. You just leave that there for Goodwill or do they make you dispose of them? If you leave there, do they resell them again in another bin or do they get trashed/recycled?
Great Junk Store Junky. I get to leave the books there and they resell them over seas is my understanding. They get to double sell them. Kinda of a deal as I get to leave behind the duds.
How very true on the passing of people. Time and time again, at first I would wonder why so many clothes at the thrift store would be the same size & in very good condition. Same at estate sales. It’s obvious they had ‘good pictures’ to take with them, as Joe Black (Brad Pitt) asked.
Yeap, It's peoples lives some of these bins. Especially bibles. Why they get tossed amazes me. Thanks Marc.
Great content as usual thank you sir
Thanks ROD. Appreciate it.
We are a non profit organization for foster kids. Our primary business is book selling online. We usually have 20-40 boxes of books we can't sell. Where can we sell them in bulk? We're in Sacramento. Thank you
Where do you go for the bins of books
Hey Mike! Thanks for the video! I've just started FBA. How necessary would you say the buy box is? Do you know what percentage of your sales are made through the buy box?
They say the buy box is important, but there is so little you can do about it, as AMAZON's algorithm is unknown. All you can do is find the books, price them and you must use a REPRICER. I use REPRICEIT.
Hey buddy I bought a big bulk load of over 500 books for $100 recently just to get started, as I'm scanning I'm finding out that probably 98% of them are getting rejected by scoutiq...any suggestions on what I should do with all of the "bad books" that I'm stuck with now? Should I give them a shot on ebay maybe?
Thank you sir!!
Thanks again for an awesome video! What profit threshold do you use per book to determine if it's a keeper? $5?
If it flips fast $2 will work. I average around $8 net profit for every sale. That is pretty typical for AMAZON FBA. I do a part volume and sorting style. Reezy says take all profit.
@@goldenstatepicker Good to know! Thanks! 👍
Hi Mike. How do you go about lining up one of the Gaylord's to scan? Do you ask to speak to a manager and get "back room" access and then scan/ keep what you want and leave the rest for them to sell in their retail store?
No they are auctioned off on the dock. Basically then go for $100 no one really wants them. I then have an empty gaylord next to the one you see and toss the ones I don't want in there. They then dispose of them via a jobber. I think they go overseas.
Where do you find the book bins? As in what stores? Interesting option for sources.
You have to try big thrift stores. They almost have to be in the bigger cities. They might have a way for you to get them at auction. Check around. Goodwill is the biggest.
That's nice you have access to Gaylords for books.
Mike, what happens to the books you reject?.. do they go to paper recycling?
btw, that paintings album - design lovers would go nuts for it, I think.. they can just use the pages to frame and make pictures.. there are some amazing images there.
The book go back into bins and resold to another vendor.
Nice video. I have questions . One why do I always wind up with so many books that become valueless after I leave the store when it has value. Second what should I do with the Target Price that shows on Scout I. Q. Do I use it or the buy box price?
Each book is a bit different. As far as the BUY BOX or the price they are showing, I go off of a variation of the two. Look at how many books are in etc. Your repricer should also help.
I would like to see what boxes you keep on hand for your eBay book lots. Great video. I have been trying to find a book source like yours but no luck yet.
MOUNT BOXMORE! Someday I will show you the disaster that is by box storage.
Hi Mike, which store do you get the gaylords from? I live in NY and would love to try that out.
Goodwills are a start and local thrift stores. Check aroind
Good video, had to watch twice.How are you separating the Ebay pile from the Amazon pile. Why not send them all to Amazon? How do you determine the condition? Do you check the insides of the books or what exactly is your way of doing it?
Condition is checked at home for the amazon books that are good. They all can't go as the amount I'm allowed is limited so some have to go to EBAY. Usually older books. I could sell FBM also on AMAZON then I ship and store the books, but that is more work for me, so I sell the others that don't go on Amazon VIA EBAY. All books are checked for page condition etc when you list the book to sell on AMAZON. It's actually pretty easy to do. You just know the condition once you hold the book. The books in the plastic tubs are AMAZON ones on the ground are potential EBAY BOOKS.
@@goldenstatepicker Soo, good. I love this information. I can use the normal phone for scanning, if I was just going g to GW or Savors. And check the condition there. But if I'm going to do this full-time I will need the two products you suggested to do this business, correct?
Where do you network for sourcing
You have to build relationship with others. Pickers, etc. Those relationships will lead you to many things.
What do you do with the books that you don’t take home? Do you just donate them and use as a write off? Thanks for sharing all of your knowledge!
I leave the duds behind as the place then resells them over seas.
What’s the place? Sorry complete novice/book reader here in the UK😂
How do you deal with taxes, when/if you don't have receipts or if you sell your own books. Thanks
Well I get the receipt for my book bin, which is $100. The other one is the honor system. I take money out of the ATM before garage sales and that show that I'm taking money to use to buy stuff at garage sales. As, long as you don't try and cheat the system you will be fine.
@@goldenstatepicker
Thank you Appreciate it.
What is that enormous box of books called??? I am driving myself crazy trying to figure it out!
The BIN OF BOOKS! Video right here to show you. th-cam.com/video/1qtrXWrr5w4/w-d-xo.html
What do you do with the bad books?
They get resold to a jobber overseas from the source store. I only keep the good Amazon books and the ones I can sell on EBAY..
How do I sell a used book if it says “requires approval” ?
Those you have to flip elsewhere like Ebay.
Apparently you cannot use scoutiq in the uk. Does anyone know of a reliable alternative?
I do not know of any. There has to be.
@@goldenstatepicker 👍🏼👍🏼
I live 40 minutes from amazon. Can I just drive my stuff there and save shipping them there?
No. Only shipping.
lol you said you buy bins of books i was thinkin a small bin of book! you are buying garlorde pallets!
Yeah, the big ones.
What do you do with the books from the bin that you are not taking?
I just read a response from another comment. Sorry for the unnecessary question
It's okay, We are lucky they take the duds and resell them overseas.
Where do you find pallets of books?
Check you local Goodwill to see if you can buy GAYLORDS of books. You have to find some store willing to do that for you.
@@goldenstatepicker thank you! That is very generous advice. :) I found you through Don's channel and I'm binging your videos. It's really generous to share your knowledge. I appreciate you both so much!
Where do you go to buy the bulk of books?
Check with your local GOODWILL
How often do you send books to Amazon and How many on average do you send at a time? Thanks
I try to send 40 books a day on average. That works out to 1200 a month. Right now I have sold 950 last 30 days but I was also on vacation for 2 weeks and really sent no books in for 3 total weeks.
@@goldenstatepicker wow, amazing. I'm out in the UK and will be sending 200 books in soon just to test everything. Was going to send in 1000 until I realised how much work it is. Thanks so much your videos are extremely helpful
Sources, what is your take in finding the right sources?
All I can tell you is don't be afraid to talk to other pickers etc. Get a business card and hand it out to them. Once you get to know more people they will help you. I found my book source that way. I have found many a high end item from other pickers etc. Just keep meeting people and letting them know what you do and are looking for.
It’s a lot of calling around and asking questions
Where do you buy your books ?
Local thrift store try your local GOODWILL.
I had a 93 year old gentleman, that was a world wide engineer. He gave me about 400 vintage engineering books he had, and some he used in college. They are from 1930's-70's. no ISBN numbers. What would be my best method to sell these?
WOW! That could be very hard. Best way as always is EBAY. You might try to bundle similar titles etc to help some of them move. It really depends on condition and demand.
Where is the best spot to buy bulk books?
Goodwill would not sell gaylords
Well, many do it all depends on your city etc. Not sure what city you live in. BIG CITY?
@@goldenstatepicker hey thanks for getting back ... I live in Michigan by taylor
I've checked several near me 4 of them to be exact.... ? Am I maybe asking wrong 🤔 or is there a certain person I should contact at the goodwill?
An is there any other directions you can point me in to find them ?
