hello all, I am just wondering if anyone has tried to sell their cookbook using their own eBay store. I am thinking about opening one up to sell my children's cookbook and wondering if it worth doing.

Thanks! :lips:

if your hesitant (sp?) maybe jsut put a few out there if they dont sell i dont think they charge you much. if they do then maybe open the store.

Is it a hardcopy book or a PDF document?

If hardcopy, then eBay may be the way to go, although I never would have thought to look there for a cookbook.

If PDF or eBook, I think you might get better exposure and circulation using one of the ebook publishers. I love the instant gratification of ebooks and the fact that I can review a portion of the book before deciding to buy.

I just sold a copy of Fernand Point's book on Amazon in 6 hours for 100 bucks. Also sold Alice Medrich's brownie book fairly quickly. Then I start searching for some of the other 70's French cookbooks I have, Verge, Guerard, Troisgros, Bocuse, and they are dirt cheap. So I figure why bother? You can also sell books at abebooks.com.
It's not Dairy Queen.
