A few months ago I went through all of our books, kids, adult all types. Out of 60+ books they wanted 2!! This was ziffit and we (don't) buy books...
Now tell them how it’s a minimum price of $5-7.50 in order for the sale to be completed. Most items range from .05-.20 on average. That’s up to 50 books to make $7.50 just to send them out. It’s a nice way to clean out storage but not a business model.
The problem with selling books is that the postage cost is usually so high that no one wants to buy them.
The best video from you in ages thank you media is getting harder to sell
Thank you for that app just what I needed to clear out my cds, love your videos 😊
Love the tips you drop in on these videos, top stuff!👍
That app is absolutely brilliant !!!
Great video Nic. Thanks for all the information
Downloading app now. How much time this is going to save me is unreal!
Great tips and advice as always 🎉thanks so much for scan angel app looking forward to trying it
Hi Nic, even with ear buds I couldn’t hear the bells. Great video I’m sure you will have people who are interested. ⭐️⭐️⭐️💓💞🥰🤗
I've been using that app for quite a while. I do it every few months. Before I used to have all the apps open before and scanned into all for the best price.
Really interesting, Great info, Nic thank you
Great vid, thanks for the info, i will defo give that app a look
The app sounds like a godsend. My husband has a charity book stall at his work that sometimes gets inundated with donations so I help out by scanning to ziffit et al. It takes forever. This should make it much easier!
I've been volunteering and doing this for my local charity for a few yrs now it's definitely easier on the phone
Please be aware that certain corporations have set up apps and are trying to remove certain books from society, especially older original, historical, informative books.
This sounds good, thanks for sharing! Wish I'd seen it a few days ago, as I've recently scanned a heap of books for Ziffit and WeBuyBooks and it got a tad confusing sorting out which was the best price. I normally find Ziffit the best - and it did end up with three boxfuls - but got some surprisingly good prices on a boxful of books for WeBuy. Sometimes it's hard to predict what they'll like!
Very interesting vid Nicky thank you
Thanks for the tip on scan angel. I've got a stack of low value media to process, so I'll be using that to pre-sort them and make a stack for each buyer before I scan them into their apps.
Good luck with that. The SA results are very random!
Jesus Christ is the only hope in this world no other gods will lead you to heaven
There is no security or hope with out Jesus Christ in this world come and repent of all sins today
Today is the day of salvation come to the loving savior Today repent and do not go to hell
Come to Jesus Christ today
Jesus Christ is only way to heaven
Repent and follow him today seek his heart Jesus Christ can fill the emptiness he can fill the void
Heaven and hell is real cone to the loving savior today
Today is the day of salvation tomorrow might be to late come to the loving savior today
Holy Spirit Can give you peace guidance and purpose and the Lord will
John 3:16-21
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Mark 1.15
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Hebrews 11:6
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Jesus
Great Video - thanks Nic
Cheers Pete :)
thanks nic very informative
Interesting, thank you!
That app would be a must-get if there was a US version that had Amazon on it along w/ the other book-buying sites.
I’ve used this app for a while as my little boy has outgrown his books. They didn’t want any dvds though
Great app - thanks for sharing
Thanks for the information
Keep it up good work
downloaded the cheers also are the prices for the cd say £20 on note inc postage or postage on top
Is anyone else having trouble registering for this app ? It looks really good and I would love to give it a try.
Just an FYI, the Scan Angel app only works in the UK, not the US.
The ScanAngel app looks good. What is the least amount that you would send in ? - 25p 50p?
Got a massive box of Indian Bollywood type music cds… someone in my village gave them away free- been on death mountain for a year I might try scanning them 😂😂
How would this compare with selling them on Amazon? And what are you using on eBay to check sales? Thanks!
Hi Nic,
I found ScanAngel online.
There was no link below your video. Nor could I see a link to your Classic CD video, which I would have watched.
If you do a follow-up ScanAngel video, would you please cover the BOOK CONDITION requirements for Ziffit and 'We Buy Books'.
Thanks
Unfortunately for dvds and blurays it does not compare prices with CEX and the prices given on the app were on average half of what CEX were offering for the same items so until it includes price comparison with CEX it really is of only any use with books. However if they can integrate CEX pricing then it could prove really useful.
Hi I downloaded the app it's great just wish you can touch the app you want to send it and it goes into the apps basket also wish you can keep scanning not have to come out each time as I scan about 200 a day
..this guy went to the library the other day..he said to the assistant loudly ..'ill have fish n' chips and a can of coke please..!!..she said please don't shout..you do know this is a library ??.. he said 'oh sorry in a quiet voice..I'll have fish 'n chips and a can of coke..😅
The application shows the offered prices and buyers, but I do not see the possibility of selling using it. How to do it? Thanks for the video.
I bought two boxes of vintage fishing books at auction 15 months ago. Although I have sold a few, the rest are taking for ever to sell
Do you have "Fly Fishing" by J.R Hartley?
May get a better return putting them in auction
I’m trying to register on the scan Angel app but it’s been saying loading for 20 mins. Great video
One more thing about the app. When reviewing the results, you cannot go back to the scan screen. I don't know if it works for everyone or if it's just me. then exit the app and re-enter.
I can't wait to use the app, it will be such a time saver. Unfortunately, I can't get the app to work at the moment. You must be registered to use it, and when I try and sign up through the app a message says loading and it freezes at that point.
Yes or says it’s loading and never ever stops loading I give up lol
The ScanAngel app gets a 'No' from me. An advert before every scan that is made and not banner ads either but full on annoying videos with audio for chat apps and the like - just awful. Ran three Playstation 1 games and a PC game through it and got a 'nil' each time. I removed the app almost immediately.
...talking of Apps, what's happening with your own App, or did I miss an update?
Can you do anything with books , which have no bar code ?
Take a shot every time Nic says 'Books' 🥃
or "Bells"
Hey great video and funny I e just goad a load of books and this seems like the best idea to do with them just wondering do they take all books or is it condition variant because I’ve heard if they arnt the best quality they keep them and don’t pay and you don’t get your books back has this happened to you or is it a bull but great video tho. Like say I’ve got 1000 books so would like to hear back from you
My best media buy was about 5 boxes at auction of DVDs. A lot of old science fiction series and documentaries which did OK but the big earner was 2 boxes of railway DVDs. I sold loads of train ones for in the region of £5 - £10 each, i think they cost me about 10p each in the auction.
Is this app available in the USA?
The bell ringers are probably practising for the coronation
Does the app Scan Angel have 100 + downloads ,
So I download the right app
👍
No luck with the app. Created an account been waiting days for a verification code anyone else had this issue ?
Such a shame. Was excited to try it and don't mind adverts, but a video advert after each scan is crazy
Hi there, I’m interested in selling cd’s as I have a hoard of them but in your video you say you are getting ready to list your cd’s but you don’t say where? EBay? I take it you are not scanning through scan angel?
I know you've already sold it now so it doesn't really matter, but that Enjoy The Rumours CD is a bootleg and eBay doesn't really like people selling them types of CDs on there. Just be careful picking up unofficial bootleg CDs because there's always the chance eBay could remove the listing.
Tried the app, not sure I'll use it much as the ads are really annoying.
Why is religious stuff in the non-fiction section?
How much do these guys make selling online?
I have got around 5000+ DVDs, CDs and games after inheriting the collection of a family member. I did come across your videos and thought of scanning them but after one box, I realised it’s definitely not my cup of cake… Scanning through one box for a few quids..Not for me. If anyone wants them, can have a look at them, just come and offer me a price. I am based in London.
Let me guess, they have to be mint or they won't pay you
Story: Right now I've got a problem with a buy back place. Sent a sealed Catholic Wedding Bible, received email today saying it's in poor condition.
Just got a £80 Ziffit order boxed up and ready this week….Wonder how many get rejected.
Do you have to buy a box or they will box it for you?
@@chinaforeverblue You box it yourself and either get it collected from your address or you drop off at a local collection point.
I missed the Collection 3x in a row since making this comment and missed out on the order.
I now have 5 boxes of books sitting there
@@interesting2491 okay thank you, you should schedule the collection again and make sure that you’re there and alert 😊🩷
First 10 books scanned in charity shops all not recognised .I’ll
keep trying .
The app is pretty buggy at the moment i couldnt sign up because i didnt put the activation code that had been sent to my email in 15 minutes and theres no way to request another! pretty poor, had to use another email to open an aacount and as others say you get an advert after every scan so realy slows down the process. I don't know whether you got a version without ads Nic
same here, got stuck loading, closed the app now stuck on the activation loop
I think scan should really have an m at the end, instead of n.
Mainstream stuff, everything counts in tiny amounts.
Every church is practising for the Kings coranation
What conditions do the books have to be?
The app is a waste of time you scan 1 barcode and get same annoying advert don't bother using it - quicker to just scan through the apps themselves!
Nic, these book buying apps make me wonder if this is a way of removing certain books from society, especially original, historical, informative books. In this era we are in now, they are b a n n i n g and c o n f i s c a t I n g certain fact and fiction books. Could we all just bare this in mind, and sell those types of books a different way, and sell to actual people who want those type of books. We must keep them in society.
Makes you watch an add every time you scan anything. Makes a good idea completely useless
Ziffit in Arabic is a bad word
Nice little Vid bud, but you are losing so much money! I'm in Norfolk PM me.
love the channel, but you are getting ridiculous prices with buying books at 0,10/020 cents a book...?! People who are selling you that should be locked up really. Getting books for cheap anywhere else where your buying at thriftstores/flea markets, etc is around 1 tot 2 euro/pound, for the rest of Europe, etc. Most thriftstores are selling books for more, especially bigger non fiction art books etc. So love the channel but this flip option you are doing is for the 1% of resellers I think who can do this. Or if you are getting books for free. Have a good one and keep up the good work!
May of got them from auction.
@@Dirlewanger44 could be, but still almost nobody unless you have a thriftstore you are getting good quality reselling books for ,10 cents!
@@Jorit19 maybe in the USA but not uk
Surely Jesus books are fiction? 😂
Hi there what's better Ziffit vs Webuy book to make more extra cash pls and better App to use in the longrun.
