In order to reduce the amount of surplus entertainment material that I own I’ve decided to start listing things for sale on Amazon.ca. It looks like even though I’m listed through the Canadian site it seems that my listings appear in a global fashion depending on whether I agree to ship to Canada, the US or internationally. This is good but it seems that the competition for books and music is pretty steep. It might be difficult for me to sell some of the books but it’s not really costing me anything to list and I really have to cut down on my collection. I have all of the music archived (or soon will) and most of my books are just taking up shelf space. The ones that I really want to keep I’ll keep but I think probably about 90% of the books I own I could sell. It could potentially be some extra income as well as increase the amount of storage space we have around the house. And if they don’t sell in 60 days (the listing period) then I can either relist at a different price or figure out another way of dispersing them (craigslist for example). Long live The Long Tail!
