Hi All, Previously on Half.com, if an item was added by a buyer to their shopping cart, the seller could no longer see and manage that inventory. The inability to manage this inventory often resulted in orders being processed on behalf of the seller with refunds initiated by the seller if he/she could no longer fulfill the orders. We have enhanced our inventory management functionality to address this problem. Sellers will now be able to see their inventory in buyer shopping carts and...

Hi All, When you make a sale on Half.com, Half.com collects the credit card payment from your buyer. We pay you by direct deposit (ACH) to your checking account. The balance of your accumulated sales is calculated on the 15th of each month and on the last day of each month. Your payment will be deposited to your checking account approximately 7 business days after the end of the selling period (either the 15th or the end of the month). When we're preparing to deposit money to your...

I have been conducting my own little experiment after opting to list on e-bay. I changed most of my 75 cent books to a dollar to get them on e-bay. I was making too little profit on them anyway. I think that I have been selling more of the cheaper books after increasing the price. Has anybody seen the same thing? Or are you selling the same amount of 75 cent books?

Good morning! I've been a "lurker" on these forums and I've learned a great deal from some of you who have a lot more experience than I do - thank you! Now I have a question of my own. I'm going to be spending the Thanksgiving holiday with family in a very rural part of Iowa. Although I'll have the time to list some books on HDC while I'm there, they have only dialup internet access. That, of course, makes the process very slow and frustrating. Is anyone aware of an effective and inexpensive...

I sent to emails to sellerpayment@half.com. I have not received a reply. I have tried to verify/update my checking account information, but am unable to do so. I have only had two checking accounts for the last 15 years. Neither of the account numbers are being accepted on the verification page. I have not been able to contact a live person over the phone. What am I supposed to do here? Half.com owes me hundreds of dollars. JenFindley-half

I had to test the cd to make sure it plays before shipping it. My process for doing this is uploading it to iTunes. If the transfer goes fine the cd will work for the buyer. I uploaded the cd in question to itunes and planned on deleting it after the buyer confirmed it was in working order. I have no plans to listen to it for it is not my style of music. The buyer claimed the cd received was not the right one. I asked her to tell me what tracks were on the cd. She replied with...

I've wanted to ask about this for some time, but never really had a problem with it until now. I have at least two repeat buyers, both of whom are power sellers with high feedback ratings. I figured out that they have set themselves up as middlemen using my inventory to make third-party sales. How does this work, and does it violate HDC policy? Neither seller has any standing inventory on HDC, so I assume they're listing and selling through Amazon or another platform, adding a price point to...

I have been selling on half.com for almost ten years now and I mostly buy my books at book sales that I find at booksalefinders.com. When ever I go to these sales there are people there with scanners. I am just wondering what you do with these scanners and as a bookseller is it worth investing in one?

So I place an order on 11/2, accepted (or whatever the term is) by seller on 11/3. I live an hour from the seller. It's being shipped via media mail. I sent an email mid-last week asking for a status. I'd heard nothing. On 11/21, (19 days after order placed) I get a refund from the seller, indicating that they were "waiting on" the item to ship it, were unable to do so, and are thus refunding my money. What the ****? Half.com policy says "Once an order has been placed, you are...

Found something kinda strange while perusing the Sell it Now offerings -- when I checked out the books on Half.com, I found a number of them listed for less than the Sell it Now offered price (for instance some books will a $3.99 Sell it Now offer were already priced at 75 cents to $1). I can understand that the person with the Sell it Now offer may have intended his/her Sell it Now price for only a Like New or Brand New book (and not a cheaper but lower grade book) -- but occasionally...

I've been listing on Half and eBay for years. I just went out and rented a barcode scanner so I can list tons more books, cds and dvds. I'm running into more complainers on Amazon in one month than I ever had on eBay. Yesterday I posted on AZ's discussion board for the first time. The people responding were so mean and condescending. I got responses such as "Go back to eBay". Why do they think they are so special? It just another way for us sellers to sell stuff.

never heard of half.com before this morning. Found over 30 charges to my personal credit card account this morning. I cannot find anyway to reach half.com to get an explanation and to have those transactions canceled!

I recently sold a textbook for $70. I shipped the book and the customer received the book on Nov 5, 2009 (USPS - 0309 0330 0001 6997 5139) Today, $70 was withdrawn from my account. I cannot find any way to contact Half.com regarding this issue, let alone the customer. This is bologna. My account was overdrawn because of this, now I owe $70 plus $35 for the overdraft fee. Can someone please explain how to fix this issue. I now am broke and have no textbook to sell. This has never...
