You are by far the best used book FBA seller on RUclips. No nonsense, easy to understand and old fashioned/low tech. My kinda guy! Ty
Appreciate it!
I agree
Thank you for just making a clear informative video with no other nonsense. Super good thank you thank you
No problem keep me posted on your Amazon journey!
Thanks for this I recently started doing fba couple months back
Keep me posted on your journey! Plenty of money to be made out there still!
@@TheUsedBookGuy will do
I have heard that even though the FBA will cost you it is worth more to have a prime shipping button on your book. The fast free delivery for prime members is worth more than the cost. If someone else is selling the same book an is even a touch more in cost most people will choose the prime shipping fulfilled by Amazon. That prime button provides confidence and happiness in the buyer. Hands down I’m going to follow along and do FBA. Just makes sense.
Yes FBA prime bump is real!!
I have gone back to your very first video and am watching them all. Am headed back home in a few days and am anxious to start all this process.
The sky is the limit when it comes to sell media on Amazon. I am an open book so if you ever have any questions dont hesitate to ask.
@@TheUsedBookGuy I’m very impressed with how you so quickly reply to all of us.
@@merrilynblackmore6962 I have to make sure everyone is on track lol and helping people as quickly as possible!!
great tutorial thanks.
Just starting the journey. Next week will be my first time shipping and getting going on FBA book sales. You’re amazing helping the community out. Thanks for hooking us up with your process. May you be blessed in your business.
No problem if you run into any headaches reach out!! First one is the toughest!!

Thank you so much for this video all I needed to know before shipping my first box to fba. Wish me luck ;-) , I appreciate you going right to the point
Some things might have changed since this video but the overall gist of it holds true. If you run into any headaches reach out I can guide you! Just know the first one will be the biggest pain after that its smooth sailing!
Very helpful and easy to understand, Thank u!

Thanks for the nice informative video.
No problem if you ever have any questions dont hesitate to reach out!!
@@TheUsedBookGuy yeah because of your video I’m finally going to try using Your instructions and get rid of my inventory lab thanks a lot
it me a while to find someone who showed the entire listing process when using seller central
@@ricvourn6404 If you hit any headaches let me know!
I have a scanner now, yay :)
Changes the game!!!
u are best. thanks
Appreciate the kind words!
Excellent video overview. If you were to send a signed book, would you label it as “collectible-good?” Thanks again!
Signed books should ALWAYS be comped on eBay first!! But no collectible condition because you will not be buy box eligible with that condition!
Interesting. So eBay is the better choice for comping, but it’s still ok to send it to be sold via Amazon. If the books are signed, how would you recommend listing the books on Amazon? Or should I go the eBay route? I really appreciate your help since I’m new to this.
@DaniloMarrone Usually signatures will command a better price. On Amazon 95% of people do not read Condition Notes so even if you put its signed and ask for more money there is a good chance it will never sell. Anything that I come across that is signed automatically gets listed on ebay.
Thank you so much for the advice. I’ll still use Amazon for regular book sales, and your video has been very helpful in pointing me in the right direction. Keep up the great work!
Great video! Thank you :). I have a question. How do you format your sku? I’m
Ready to send off my first box and that keeps stopping me. :) 🙌🏼
I haven't used any SKUs until recently. I use them to track what store the item is from for spreadsheet purposes. You don't need one but keep it simple. For me if it's Goodwill Harrisburg I use GW.HBG as my SKU. They are not required just depends on how closely you want to track your inventory.
@@TheUsedBookGuy that was so helpful! I thought each book needed one… I appreciate your time! I’m glad I found your channel :) 👍🏼🙌🏼✨😊🙏🏼🌺
@@charissahartunian3627 Appreciate you supporting the channel!! If you ever need anything don't hesitate to reach out!!
Thank you so much for your videos, I've seen some videos where you sell different media, like DVDs, cd's. I'm about to send my first shipment of VHS and I am not sure if I should stick the bar code label on the VHS since they are paperback and could be damaged. What is your advice? THANK YOU SO MUCH
I would just cover the barcode as usual, if really valuable you could poly bag it and place barcode on outside of polybag!
Cool shirt, wonder who found that for you!
My wife!!!
@@TheUsedBookGuy Nice Borat reference.
@@TheUsedBookGuy She has great taste
Sent my first box today! Couldn’t have done it without your videos! I’m still confused on pricing and why scout IQ shows it more profitable than the used buy box. Should I be pricing my book higher if there is no fba offers!? Also why are so many of my books restricted?? Literally three dozen I can’t post even after I ask for approval and Amazon says they granted permission.
Yes awesome first one is the hardest!! If you are the only used FBA offer price it up!!! Those are my favorite ones because we can get a lot more than anticipated from ScoutIQ. Restricted nonsense have you gone through on the PC and requested approval? That usually works the app is broken right now with approvals.
@@TheUsedBookGuy Thanks I will definitely start listing those! I just figured out that I had to use my laptop to list all the restricted ones and what a PITA it is. SMH at Amazon! Again….thanks so much! On another note, a guy contacted me thrust Craigslist and says he has a storage unit he is cleaning out and will just give me the books!
@@joanndolci2592 Yayayaya storage unit is a lot of books make sure you have a plan in place!! One stack for Amazon, one for eBay if you are doing eBay, and one for trade ins!!! Make sure you have an outlet for trading in duds. If you do not I would recommend doing a Yard Sale post on Craigslist $1 books they all must go!!
@@TheUsedBookGuy I’m gonna drive the hour to 2nd and Charles for the duds. Also I don’t think the entire unit is books.
@@joanndolci2592 Awesome so plan for there to be a wait at 2nd and charles you drop it off and sometimes it can take 2 hours sometimes less depending on the day. Plan accordingly if you are going alone feel free to hit thrift shops in the area or if you are going with someone maybe plan a lunch somewhere!! Make sure you bring your I.D they will need it.
Hey. Any chance you can do an updated version. This is over 2 years ago and it is such a great video that I think it would do well to have it redone! :)
I agree this is actually my next tutorial video I will be doing this year. Hopefully will have it done within a week or two!
@@TheUsedBookGuy Thanks. Appreciate all your info. Its helps out alot. Do you do 1 on 1 help?
I do for super cheap lol its apart of the RUclips membership! Clock the join button it will take you there its $24.99 thats the 1 on 1 level. We also have a private discord and weekly zoom calls for everyone to attend!@@davidcollins5740
Even better. Thanks for help. Will check that out soon
Do you use the same printer that you printed the 30 Up labels as you do with the 2 shipping labels on the box?
I'm trying to scan my first bos, but Amazon tell me I need approval, and that on every book> Did you have to deal with that as well when you started out, and what do I need to do to overcome that?
Just apply for approval most of them will be automatically ungated.
Where do u get the sticker printer pages
Amazon or Staples has them they are called 30-Up Labels I have a link to them in the description as well!
Thank you for making these helpful videos. Do you choose a product tax code for the items you list on Amazon?
Nope Amazon takes care of collecting sales tax if you are a US seller!!
@@TheUsedBookGuy Thank you, you are incredibly helpful.
Let’s say I’m shipping 250 books. Would I do it all in one shipment and multiple boxes or just do them in individual (les than 50 lbs) boxes
One box at a time!!
Hey buddy this video was great I like the idea of not using any fancy software for scanning can you tell me, I came from the pawnshop and i picked up a DYMO labelewriter 450 for $75 like new i am going to try and set it up to print my first shipment are there any updates to this video for shipping and what scale do you recoomend can i use like a home scale or is thier one i can pick up for cheap i see what you mean by saying GOOD condition it keeps the sale of the book safe thanks again
Home scale will used if you don't want to invest in one I have an accuteck one believe the link is in description it is battery powered so I can bring it for bulk buys on the go. You got a good deal on the Dymo at that price. Things may be a little different I have a newer tutorial that is the one you may need to watch. Amazon always changes the workflow so it's hard to keep up. If you run into any snags or headaches my email is always available or comment here and I always respond!!
Do I need a thermal printer for those labels.
Nopers standard old printer!!
do you clean off the sticky adhesive after using the heat gun?
Nanana just label it and cut it loose!!
Amazon has since changed their workflow! Here is a video I made covering the new workflow! ruclips.net/video/NFw9D8ojM-k/видео.html
So just went to do my first listing (Canadian)on my iPhone and my listing page asks the manufacturers suggested retail price & it’s a mandatory field. I’m just inputting the new book price from the listing ??
Just put 0 that's the easiest way!!
In your experience, Please explain about what kind of bank account better for sell used book in Amazon? personal or business? which one is better?
Great question!! Definitely business. New tax laws starting next year that will require everyone to report their income no matter how much or little they make. I use the same bank and just have a seperate account and card. Having a seperate account will make book keeping a million times easier and more efficient.
@@TheUsedBookGuy Thank you your quick response! also another idiot question. if I want open business an account , Do I need to register new company ?
@@nominnomin1606 I use a seperate Checking Acc. In my name. As long is its all seperate you dont need an "Official" business account. I run my business as Sole Proprietor so I dont have a registered business. I run off of my Social Security # as a sole proprietor, dont need anything special for that.
@@TheUsedBookGuy Thank you so much, It is really helpful!
@TheUsedBookGuy Thanks for video! Amazon is requiring me to enter the "Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price" when I create a listing for a used book. What should I put in there?
0 don't waste time with that!!
@TheUsedBookGuy Thanks. It's forcing me to enter a value. Strange for used products.
@TheDobberj3 Yeah Amazon implemented that to make our lives miserable lol
HEY BUDDY, HOW DO YOU CHANGE YOUR SCREEN VIEW TO DARK MODE?
On Amazon? I dont think you can!
@TheUsedBookGuy I ask because in this RUclips video I noticed your Amazon Seller Centeal acct your using looks like your screen is in dark mode?
Why is amazon charging me $25 shipping fee for a 30 lb box?
Depends what warehouse you are shipping to and from where!
@@TheUsedBookGuy Port Lucie, FL and I'm located in CA. Should I just wait a few days to see if their algorithm changes?
@@dianel.5764 Yes you also need to choose what area of the country you are sending items to West/Central/east!
has something change because I have followed your steps but when i get to the bottom nothing happens
Yes they revamped their whole process for sending things in. I still have this way but all newer sellers have their new workflow which is more tedious.
@@TheUsedBookGuy thank you so much , I was pulling my hair out
If you are stuck at a certain point feel free to DM me on Twitter same handle theusedbookguy and I can try to help walk you through it.
Do you know were I can find how to list - no new videos on youtube
@@sacarguy40 Using your phone to list correct? That should be the same as in the video only difference now is you have to put US in country of origin while listing the item. Just US nothing else it will allow you to submit it after filling that out along with price.
❤ nice thanks right to the point 👍🏼🫶
Appreciate it!!
