The Costs of Fulfillment By Amazon?

There are a couple of things that will help...

First of all, make sure that your books actually sell! Because if they don't, you'll get charged for storage and you can run into a negative balance pretty quickly.

You'll also have to sign up for the Pro account I think, but if you have a lot of turnover, that should more than pay for itself.

Also, once you have a Pro account, you'll get a big discount when it comes to the fees Amazon charges you.

And, for the shipping of the books to Amazon - you'll be able to use a special Amazon discount (I forgot whether they send you a label, but it'll be something like that), so you'll be able to send them very inexpensively.

Finally, I believe that when you use FBA, your books are eligible for Amazon Prime, which means that they get listed way on top, and... well...

I don't really know how much Amazon (if anything) will charge you, so you should check into that one.

For all I know, people are doing it quite successfully, so it looks like a viable option, provided you have books that really sell...

Good luck!

Thanks,

I think I need to give it another 2 or 3 months and see where I am then. I am really pleased with the sales so far. I'm $126 down but still have $4700 books left to sell.

I have made a few mistakes like purchasing a few books but it is a learning curve. I first thought it would only be non-fiction books which would be profitable but if you have a keen eye fictional books can also be profitable but they are few and far between.
