On Amazon.com So far only a few are listed and just waiting for them to get listed FBA (fulfilment be Amazon) My Store name is 50,000 Things. FBA means free shipping on orders over $35.

http://www.amazon.com/sp?_encoding=UTF8 ... asStoreID=

Click the product tab to see all the Models and books.

I have 25 Hard covers should be showing up soon. Followed by 70 Paperbacks that I'm just taping the box up. (Had to wait for my mail box to get unfrozen shut so I can get my discount mailing card) 40% discount on shipping to the USA.

I have 10's of 1000's of books to follow.

Just working on a box of 100 plastic models right now, mostly Naval and aircraft of WWII era. With UPC code, no problem, without UPC code massive problem. Models anyway, books not so big of a deal.

Only real problem I have is everything is quantity 1 so one entry per item shipped, not one entry for 100 items shipped. It takes 100 times longer.

That and customs for non USA Canada items. Next box is 12 of 70 books printed in the UK. Not sure what to do with old Hong Kong books they were UK now they are China?

Anyhow if you want Military and or SciFy books I will have a few coming up for sale soon and many more after that.

Slow going to get things to Amazon, Expensive too. Seems weight isn't the issue it is size of the box. A 10 pound weight shoe box cost $50. A 40 pound packing box (15 times bigger than a shoe box) is $100. No more shoe boxes.

End of the month I have 100 Models being mailed and 200+ soft cover books. Mostly Scify Some hardcover Military. Anybody have any preferences price points etc...?


Just about all my books are in like new condition, Occasionally one or two in Very good. Anything less than that and the charities just kill you. Mind you they sell the book for 1 cent hope you buy 20 and charge $4 shipping each. I sell with Fulfilment by Amazon at a reasonable price and have free shipping if you buy $35 worth.

Models are up on Amazon.com 15 more on their way.

I also have some professional not for kids considerable skill needed models to sell.

They range from $30 to $100 to $250 a piece. They are vacuformed and very difficult to make and build. But they are the type of things a museum would have on display. Age level 16+ Too hard for me to build. I might sell them as a combination kit for the right price to the right person. I have 11 in total.

They are not the numbered plastic models that fit together, these need to be cut out and made to fit together. Metal and plastic parts. I have other higher end kits as well I will make a list sometime.
