In reply to Patti. Patti, have you tried your local thrift shops, auctions, and even garage sales? If you have a thrift store like Goodwill or Saint Vincent de Paul, check their warehouse specifically. You can buy books for a few pennies. Sometimes they sell them by weight.

I want to start selling more books actually. I’m trying to find ways to buy unsorted gaylords of material. Why would I get those?

In reply to Teyana. Thanks for the suggestion Teyana. I hadn't heard of BooksRun. Do you sell books via BooksRun often?

In reply to Oscar Corrales.

Oscar, this may sound strange, but have you tried Facebook Marketplace? You may have a better chance of having your “ad” seen by speakers/readers of those languages!

If that fails, your best bet is to create your own listing on Amazon.

I have a question as well I have a bulk set of books, written in Hebrew, or possibly Arabic? I’m honestly ignorant to whether those two are exclusively different.?

My question is where can I sell books such as those I’ve tried Amazon and the main ones talked about but even with advance AI picture taken and most books I can do is have them translated which I find that these are New York time top selling books they’re just translated into Middle Eastern audience…. after the name I’m unable to find anyone or any place that has the same book for sale so do a search for the title in Arabic pull up nothing 95% of the time.

For the 5% when it does pull up, it’s usually on Amazon and the book is usually much much higher than the English version. However, in most cases, I’m unable to list there as they are locked to the original listing seller only.

So right now I’m thinking of either having to create my own listings which will be a drag on so many different titles but I’m sure we’ll pay off…. Or find someplace where I can solve the bulk of them and if I could get even half of what Amazon sells them for, for the few I found that would be enough for me.

Any help would be greatly appreciate guys. Thank you.

Hello,
Faye…Bobs advise is the best from my experience as well. I would like to add that, especially on Amazon. You’re competing against various people and making yours. The cheapest from those is not necessarily the best way to get it sold as someone mentioned Amazon customers pay top dollar much more than any other site that I’ve studied… to the point that I raise prices when something has set for a while without any views, I was quite surprised when you picked up!
People with disposable money like to show they have money even if it’s themselves LOL.
I’ve shown my girlfriend for example how she’s overpaying 60+% of the items she buys on Amazon showing her the exact same thing for cheaper on eBay or locally on craigslist… obviously shes seen that there is no difference between the sites as I sell all three so she knows more then most how it works.
Yet she has this idea that she’s buying from a higher-end company with better customer service and sticks to Amazon. It’s so embedded in her brain, that she can’t find an item on Amazon. She has in the past gotten it from eBay, but only if I order it for her! LOL. Too high a risk to use her own credit card on those ghetto sites apparently!

which YES totally made me reevaluate our relationship after doing it several times. Would you say I’m just beneath her and ghetto so ok for me to use them, or my credit or security is just not as important from her perspective??!

LOL. Moving on, thought I would expand on Bobs advice. Individual books for the highest profit Amazon for sure I’d rather sell them there than locally even there’s books there that have a ridiculously high price range for no apparent reason. But if you have a lot and you want to sell bulk or lots that place for that I found is eBay or direct to other companies.

Hope that helps. Have a great day.!

In reply to Faye B.. Unless you're making $50+/hour at your work its probably best to list them individually. Sure it will take a long time but its a lot of money. If you don't have the time pay someone that can do it quickly. Realize there are certain websites that cater to certain types of books. Browse them to see the types they promote. Punch in lots of ISBN numbers and you'll a huge difference in pricing. If you sell to a reseller kiss your money goodbye.
