Are your bids starting to pick up?
We sell all of the above and were wondering how your bids are going now?

Book sales have been poor this last week; considerable decline from the week before. Video sales are up.

I have 137 books listed right now, all go off Sunday and I only have 3 bids...Just horrible. Usually at least half would go, and many are my "sure sellers".

I guess people are not reading too much this week. I know I have not picked up a book in days, and fiction is not a priorty now.

I do think books will sell well in a few weeks, many of us will need to escape into some humorous novels...I know I will.

Bidding has been a bit slow,but I understand why.
I'm sure it will pick up in the next few days.

I put 9 book on, on Monday.
Six have bids - most are multiple bids.
Two are doing Very well.
The bids total so far is way above my cost for all 9.

I'm sure it depends on what you list. I offer antiquarian non-fiction.
Modern fiction might not do as well.

I make my living off selling books. Most of my sales come from Half.com. Here is how my sales have been thought out the week.

Date
9/10 -- 34

9/11 -- 3

9/12 -- 3

9/13 -- 4

9/14 --6
So far
Today

If this keeps up I’ll have to find a “real job”

I relisted some items Monday. I only have 1 bid, lots of hits, 50-70% of the lot should sell. Which is about average.

Quite pleased overall--I was off last week and this week is shaping up ok. It will pick up next week. Life goes on.
