Help to list a book

Not really. We got given quite a sizeable consignment (for free) of mint Polish hardback books by an ex-civil servant who did a lot of stuff in Poland. Every time he went there he got presented with some large tome, usually some resplendent expensive coffee-table book with lavish colour photographs about the country, the landscape or a particular town, but he didn’t read Polish so they were no use to him (nor could he refuse them). I even had a Polish friend who dropped in one time and I asked her if she wanted to take any (she said no, but then she wasn’t particular a bookish person). Once or twice a year someone buys one of them at some suitably hefty price. But we had space for them and we’ve just left them in the inventory, waiting to be surprised. Or if we can be bothered we might put them all in one job lot and try to flog them elsewhere.

But who knows? One day they might all just fly off the shelves. I long ago stopped second guessing what will and won’t sell. Some of the stuff we get in consignments we acquire looks impossibly obscure to me, then sometimes you list them and they sell within a week.

Polish DVDs might be easier to shift.
