Half.com n Founded by Joshua Kopelman, a University of Pennsylvania grad student in 1999, after realizing the demand for a better way to buy & sell used mass market items like books & movies n Purchased by eBay.com in July 2000 after Half.com quickly became one of the most visited websites on the web

How the Process Works n Collect your used books, CDs, movies, video games, computers, electronics, sporting goods, or trading cards. n Get the ISBN or UPC numbers from your used items n List Your Items on Half.com, especially the ones the bookstore does not want to buy back.

From

Whare are ISBN or UPC Numbers? From

Selling Your Stuff n Once your items are listed, you keep the books until Half.com s you that they have a buyer. n You can either confirm or cancel the sale. n If you confirm the sale, you need to ship the item within 3 days via the method the buyer selected.

Collecting Payments n Half.com processes the payment so you don’t have to worry about bounced check or late payments n Half.com charges 15% commission on each sale, but they do give you a shipping reimbursement for each sale and do not charge listing fees.

Getting Paid n On the 1st and 16th of each month, Half.com pays you all the monies collected for your sales in the previous 15 days. n You can be paid by direct deposit to your bank account or check.

A Few Examples...

Why Half.com is Better n It’s safer because you ship rather than meet buyers. n Save time by not having to place flyers, meet potential buyers, or have to go to the bookstore because the buyers come to you. n You can potentially get more money because items can be listed for more than half of their list value. n And….

Why Half.com is Better n Half.com is always there when the bookstore does not want to buy your books back because your professors have gone to a new edition!!
