Hey, has anyone tried selling on half.com? I don't really understand the shipping reimbursement and payment schedule thoroughly. Thought it might be a good way to sell CD's and textbooks? Any thoughts? No auctiva website yet, btw. Killing time now.

I sell a lot of textbooks on half.com. I personally think it's the best way to resell your textbooks without totally losing. I think the way they do shipping for textbooks sucks (sorry. An example...I just sold a textbook. The book was listed at $42, the person wanted the book sent express mail to them-which half.com charged $5 for-, the shipping cost me $9 and half.com took $6.50 commision. So, it isn't like eBay where you can set your own shipping, but you can set the price and just make it higher if you wish), but if you get your money back, at least it's not like taking them back to the bookstore and leaving whimpering. Generally speaking, I highly recommend it to sell and buy textbooks.
