I appreciate the wonderful ideas and will definitely try to utilize them. THANKS!

You've done a great job and I commend you for your efforts.<br /><br />I would suggest more photographs. If I'm going to pay $200-$700 for a book, or anything else, for that matter, I want pictures galore, front, back, spine, inside-front, inside-back, title page, dust jacket, outside edges and so forth. Also, close-ups or allow for zooming. Yes, it is time-consuming, but for $700, it's worth it. <br /><br />It might also be to your advantage to break up your single description paragraphs into two or more. People tend to skip huge chunks of text because they simply do not want to take the time to read it.<br /><br />I used to sell on eBay, collectibles as well as books, but it's been a while. I don't know all of the correct jargon of a book's anatomy, but I still did pretty well. So please take this advice with that in mind.<br /><br />I enjoy your blog and wish you much luck with your sales!dawthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05111620685415829813noreply@blogger.com
