How are your book sales going?

Is it just me or are sales really really slow atm? I used to sell lots of books all the time...now, even the bulk packs arent going like they used to.



I guess there is just not much money around at present.



How are your sales going? Do you think its slow atm?

About usual.



Surprisingly, it's the MMPBs that are around the same price as new dropshipped ones that seem to move.

My sales are very slow, just dribs & drabs. Then I'll get someone buy a heap of old M&Bs that will bring the average up. Past due for that though. 🙂

Re: How are your book sales going?

you sell hundreds of books per day? really? Thats pretty good in this economic climate.I am hoping that after the start of the financial year, some people will have a bit more cash in their pockets. I am basically now just trying to get some of my $$$ back... I dont make enough anymore for it to be a profit...just clearing the shelves now. I have to  lower the prices so much now... the good old days are gone, of multiple sales etc
