I went by the store today and chatted with J. about some stuff going on this weekend. While I was there, he told me he had put some of the books I'd priced on eBay. He mentioned that two of them, a first edition copy of 'The Martian' and a 10th-anniversary 1st edition of 'The Alchemist,' were priced too high. I remember being shocked by 'The Martian' as, at midrange, it was going for $500 on AbeBooks and ViaLibri. I don't think I meant to put that as the final price. But the $150 I put on 'The Alchemist' was cheaper than it was going for on Amazon.
J was going by eBay sold price, which might be good for toys and shit, but books are a whole 'nother kettle of fish.
Basically, he wants me to price stuff using eBay.
*sigh*
I can't really argue with him.
It's his store.
Still, if I use eBay something is going to go for cheaper than it should.
