New to FBA. Found about 30 music cassette tapes to sell via FBA. What is the best way to package and ship these as a group? Please be detailed! Haven't done this before.

    See if there is a market for these cassette's. With all the modern day tech cassette's are a thing of the past. You may have a very diffucult time trying to sell them. Unless you find some one with a 20 year old car that still has a working tape player.

      I agree the market for tapes are way too small

    Actually, there is a thriving business in cassettes...on Amazon and other sites. In the US I recently read that cassettes are making a comeback - in other countries they are still quite popular.


    However, 30 cassettes is not a lot - ebay might be better suited than Amazon for that number.

    January was long, February was iffy, March was a freaking dumpster fire.
    So sit down, be quiet, and don't touch anything.

      Absolutely true that cassettes are coming back! eBay is full of great cassette machines and the biggest seller there for Nakamichi and topline Pioneer decks is a team of collectors and servicing collective called Nak Central AudioLabs. I think these guys have the biggest collection of serviced audiophile cassette decks on eBay!

    If I understand the question correctly, I have to agree with Kay King here. Ebay or Craigslist is your best bet for selling a single package that contains 30 tapes.

    Put them in a box with a bunch of styrofoam peanuts and ship them, insured (assuming they are worth insuring) and with tracking via UPS or FedEx. I'm not sure how much more detail you need about packaging and shipping something.
