Now is the Best Time to Sell Your Used Textbooks

News & Updates By August 22, 2013 Last Updated on November 4, 2022 by Olivia Smith Tags: No Comments

A recent article on extrabux.comย suggests that timing can drastically affect how much cash you get back when you sell your textbooks. In fact, due to the Laws of Supply and Demand, the week of August 20th is the best time of the year to sell your used textbooks. Research shows that sale prices during this week can increase by as much as 20%. In an effort to maintain enough supply to meet the Fall-Semester demand, book-buyback companies featured on BookScouter are currently in fierce competition for students’ textbooks. As a result, prices offered to you are at an annual high.

Now is the time to take advantage of the textbook buyback season. By using BookScouter, you can maximize the immediate sales for your used textbooks. Go out and get some cash.

Amazon sellers now can use FeedbackGenius.com to help increase your feedback score

News & Updates By April 27, 2013 Last Updated on November 4, 2022 by Olivia Smith Tags: No Comments

I am very happy today to announce the general availability of FeedbackGenius.com. This tool allows Amazon sellers to automate messages to their buyers based on a number of criteria including SKU, ASIN, Item Condition, and Fulfillment Channel. Sellers can create custom messages to buyers using any combination of those attributes, or you can just use a generic message that is sent to everybody. Messages are composed using a free-form email editor where you can write your message with any structure that youโ€™d like. The email editor allows you to use over 25 variables in your messages as well so that you can include things like the product name, shipping carrier, tracking number, and links to various pages on Amazon that are specific to the buyerโ€™s order.
