I've listed some books on half.com. I would like to add more. I know some here said they have sold on there. I have a few questions if you don't mind.

How do you figure your price? Do you go by their suggested price? Also what is the average time you've had your books listed until they sold? How do you package your books and do you figure that into your price?

I listed 25 books on Amazon last year and only sold 2 of them. I know I had them reasonably priced, but I could not compete with those offering books for a penny! By the way, how do they make money on selling a book for a penny?

Can you give me any tips that have worked for you?

I usually price them a few cents cheaper than the lowest priced book. Some books I've had listed for months. I won't sell any for less than .75 and if there are a lot going for .75 you have to wait until you get to the top of the list. I've never been able to figure out how they can make money selling for .01 when there is a .99 listing fee.
