Message From The Author

Hello, I'm Gary Hendrickson and I've been making my living selling on eBay since 1998.

When I began my eBay adventure in 1998 I sold antiques and collectibles. A few years later I purchased a hay wagon full of books at a garage sale for $20. Nearly all of them were non-fiction.

I did well enough selling my 'wagon of books' on eBay and Amazon that non-fiction books soon became a little sideline to my antiques and collectibles business. Although it's not a large part of my business, it continues to remain a very profitable part to this day.

Today I run my eBay business from my home in Grand Forks, North Dakota. My eBay business allows me to indulge in my passions in life. It's allowed me to travel; to play golf at some of the great courses around the country; to spend time restoring the vintage sports cars I've been interested in since my early teens; and so much more.

In recent years I've been able to share with others some of the ideas and techniques that have made my business a success and this report is part of that sharing. I also blog about selling on eBay at TheAuctionRebel.com

222+ Non-Fiction Books That Sell For $25 Or More On eBay

Introduction

This report is unlike most books or other reports you will find about what books to sell on eBay.

Most such books available today are simply compilations of the headlines and prices realized taken from eBay's closed items lists that have been cut and pasted into report form. This report is different.

The book contained in this report are not the most expensive non-fiction books selling on eBay. Rather, I've tried to include non-fiction books that you, the average Joe, have a reasonable chance of finding copies of at thrift shops, garage sales, and Friends Of The Library or other local book sales yet which bring good prices on eBay and Amazon..

It's unlikely that you will have the opportunity to purchase a dozen or more of the titles contained here on a day-to-day basis. However, you should be able to find these books here and there on a regular basis. In other words, these aren't titles you will never have the opportunity to buy. With a little time spent at thrift shops, garage sales, and Friends Of The Library or other local book sales each month, you should stand a reasonable chance of locating and buying several of these books.

You will notice that a large majority of the titles included here are cooking, decorating, and crafts categories. There is a simple reason for that. All three of those categories are popular with new book buyers. That means that used examples are out there waiting to be found.

The report is broken down into sections that correspond with some of the categories under eBay's Books>Non-Fiction category. Within each category they are listed in alphabetical order which, hopefully, will make it easier for you to check titles when out book scouting.

Each book listed in this report contains the book title, the author, publication date, and a price range that you should realistically be able to sell the book for on eBay . I've made an effort to be conservative with these price ranges. However, eBay is not a static marketplace. On some occasions individual books may not reach the low figure of it's price range. On other occasions they may exceed the upper figure of the price range.

The price ranges shown are realistic at the time of publication in February 2008. However, prices on any venue are subject to change. As the market evolves the prices some of these book bring may drop while prices for other may increase. If you are only paying a dollar or less for a particular book these fluctuations probably aren't important. However, before spending a considerable amount of money for a book listed here, I recommend you check current prices.

All the pricing data contained in this report reflects actual completed multiple sales on eBay over the three months prior to publication. If Amazon is your primary sales venue for books, each title should sell for a similar price there also.

If you haven't sold on Amazon before, one word of advice about pricing. While most of the books listed here will have multiple copies available on Amazon, some will only have one available for a price that is considerably higher than shown here – sometimes for four, five, six times what's shown here.

In that situation, the price being asked on Amazon is most likely grossly inflated. Likely it is a case of a seller hoping to snag and unsuspecting buyer. You can find a lot of examples of books with only one example listed on Amazon priced at several hundred dollars that go begging for buyers on eBay with starting prices of four or five dollars or less.

If you do choose to list books on Amazon rather than eBay, rather than using a single example on Amazon to determine your asking price, check recent sales on eBay and base your asking price on what you find there.

222+ Non-Fiction Books That Sell For $25 Or More On eBay

Vintage sports cars & Formula 1 racing - Almost anything published prior to 1980 in this genre will sell for at least $25 on eBay. Many of them will bring $50 - $100.

Any Autocourse Grand Prix Manual published prior to 1990 should bring at least $25.

Any Motocourse Grand Prix Manual published prior to 1995 should bring at least $25.

Japanese tattoo art books - There are a lot of these floating around. While nearly any book containing tattoo art and/or tattoo patterns will sell, those concentrating on Japanese tattoo art will almost always bring at least $25, and often between $50 - $100.

Small martial arts books - There have been hundred of various books published in small printings of various methods of martial arts such as judo, tak-wandoo, karate, etc. Many of those published in the 1960's or earlier will bring $50 - $100 on eBay. Many that have been published later can also do very well. If you have access to ScoutPal check them. If you don't, you should come out ahead overall buying anything between 1960 and 1985 as long as you don't pay more than $.50 - $1.00 for any of them.

Blackwell's The 5 Minute Veterinary Consult - There are numerous versions of this book, each targeted at one specific animal such as cats, dogs, ferrets, etc. Nearly all will sell on eBay for at least $25 - $50, occasionally more.

Collections of photographs of nude or nearly nude young men - These have a huge following among the Gay crowd and as long as you include the word “Gay” in your auction headline many will easily bring between $25 - $50 or more on eBay.

Local town and county histories - These are often large volumes, some times multi-volume, histories published in conjunction with centennial or bi-centennial celebrations. The more pages of family histories they contain the better. County histories usually sell better than town histories. These will bring anywhere from $25 to $100+ on eBay.

Rich Dad Poor Dad Series books - While these don't do well individually, a lot of six or seven from the series should bring $25 or more. The larger the number of books in the lot, the higher the price. Large lots frequently bring $75 - $100.

Cooking Magazine Recipe Annuals - While most of these won't bring $25 individually, lots of six or more will often reach the $25 or higher mark. As above, the larger the lot, the higher the price. Look for annuals from Weight Watchers, Cooking Light, Sunset, Taste Of Home, Quick Cooking, Southern Living, and Cooks Illustrated for starters.
