I like to sell books on Half.com if they're books that might be a bit less popular and potentially not sell on Ebay.com
I would sell all my books on Half.com, but with Ebay you get money faster so I usually opt for Ebay when I'm selling textbooks.
So what do you sell on Half.com?

I have never sold anything off of half.com, but I have sold on Ebay and have never had any problems getting money.

I've had a few times when I didn't get paid on eBay, but then I didn't send the item either. It was bad though because then I paid fees without making any money. Which I realize was partially my fault since there are forms for that, but at the time I was too busy to worry about such things.

It seemed I always had problems on Ebay too. I quite doing it.
One lady paid me and I sent her stuff out right away. She complained when she got it saying all the stuff was falling out of the box and the box was destroyed and so on and so on.
I knew she was lying, there was no way the stuff was falling out. It was in there good. I told her its a shame how the post office would take such bad care of other peoples property and that I could only refund what she paid for it not the shipping. She insisted I paid her the shipping too and then she would give me a positive rating.
Well at the time I was just starting out so it was a toss up I didn't want no negatives so I gave in and paid her it all back. I wasn't happy with the situation at all!
Then the next person I sold something to. He paid, It took me a little longer to mail it out and then in that time post office was closed for a holiday. He never left me nothing! No positive feedback nothing. SO that told me he wasn't happy either.
I had other things for sale too, which never sold so eventually I gave up. I think it takes a lot of time and running to do that and it seemed no one appreciated it.
I was very discouraged.

Yeah, I get discouraged with eBay too sometimes. I've had quite a few people who never left feedback. I think some people just don't care about leaving any. And then I have had tons of sellers who won't leave feedback for me as a buyer as well. That's kind of annoying because I should have a lot more feedback than I do, probably at least 100 more ratings.
