About us
We are a homeschool family that loves to read! We use a mixture of Charlotte Mason, classical, and unit study methods -- always reading lots of real, living books! As you can see in the photo below, we have found so many books that our house can't hold them all!
We decided EIGHT years ago to start selling books online - both to make some money for our family and bless other families with these wonderful books. As our homeschooling journey is coming to an end we will be selling more of our home library PLUS I've decided to start selling books that I have made myself. Including the one shown in the photo above. I'll be making and listing paper bag albums, purse/pocket brag books, heritage cookbooks, and other altered scrapbooks in the next few months. These would make GREAT Christmas gifts! Please sign up for my YahooGroups newsletter if you're interested in these items.
A portion of all our eBay proceeds go to our two sponsored children, Islaveth in India & Emilio in Mexico, through Compassion International.
Helpful eBay links
Very often people ask me for advice on selling on eBay. I wish I had enough time to sit down with each one of you and let you know what I've learned. I've often thought I should write a book about it! But why, when so many great ones are already out there. So, I'll just share my sources with you and let you read for yourself! All my sources are listed on the eBay page of my website. Here are just a few of my favorites:

Finding Jewels: A Guide to Identifying Valuable Children's Literature will help you find, id, and sell the most valuable books on eBay! Julie Anna, the author, also sends out a monthly list of hot books to look for.
How to Sell Books Using Online Auctions will tell you almost everything you need to know about selling books on eBay such as how to set your starting bid, what category to list in, how to get more bids, how to advertise, building your AboutMe page, and LOTS more.
Terry Gibbs has written a lot of great information about buying & selling on eBay. These two guides are completely FREE.
I've been selling books on eBay for EIGHT years and still learn from these sources!
Shipping & Handling Info:
Single books will be shipped in a bubble mailer that has been well taped. If you win several books, more than will fit in my largest envelope, I will wrap them in bubble wrap or plastic and ship them in a new or recycled box. I'm not a bookstore, I'm a stay-at-home mom, so I usually go to the Post Office twice a week to mail books.
YES, I will combine auction wins & store purchases. Usually shipping/handling is $2.87-3.99 for the first book, $1.00 for the second, and 50¢ for each additional book.
Thanks for reading,
Ann Tatum
