Wholesale Books to Sell Online

Want to sell books on eBay, Amazon or your own website? This is a highly competitive market. You have heard of Amazon.com & Barnes & Noble right? Amazon started as a bookstore, and grew from there. But because of these large specialty product retail stores, it makes this a highly challenging area to get into selling online. These larger retailers will always have access to the biggest inventory choices, the first to get new releases, and something for everyone at the best retail prices.

We don't recommend getting into this area, unless you are out on your own sourcing antique books and 1st print editions from estate auctions. But we have seen a few cracks. Again, it's all about doing your homework - finding the right niche, the right supplier, and the right price. Any online retailer who takes the time to do their research can be very successful in this area.

(Quick tip: When there are large retailers selling products in your niche, build an affiliate website for that niche to help gauge demand before setting up accounts with suppliers. Anyone with a great site can be an affiliate.)
