Update and about this "blog"

Hello!

I am working on getting more of my books updated in between Mom duties and, of course, going out pretty much daily in search of more books. I am such a junkie.

So, for the two people soon-to-be three people that I have given this link to, please know, that my plan is for all of the lists to eventually be formatted in an easy-to-read manner. Right now, I am trying to get books posted with some basic details so that you have an idea of what I have.  My plan is to continue on with that and then update tags, pricing and possibly post some photos. Oh, and I haven't even scratched the surface with posting the books that I currently have. I keep telling myself that I could have worse addictions. Ha.

Pricing: In regards to pricing, most of that hasn't been entered either.  If there is a price, it might be what I would list it for on etsy.  I wouldn't get too caught up in that.  When I sell books on Instagram, I discount quite a bit.  So, if you want to inquire about an order from these lists, expect much of the same.  I do try and throw in extras etc when people order but I am going to rethink how I want to price bulk orders going forward. When I look to price a book to list on Etsy, I don't just look at Ebay or Etsy.  I use several different sites to get an idea of how to price a book.  I sold a vintage Golden Book about Camping for $72.95 on Etsy a few months ago.  I think Ebay might have had a copy listed lower but it's all relative to the condition, the edition and when I looked the pricing up.  I try and post fair prices and sometimes the pricing needs to be adjusted.  Just know, I am flexible.

Grouping/Navigation: For now, I think that I have a logical way of how I am separating my books by post.  I have a Little Golden Book post, but you will find Disney-related Little Golden Books under a Disney post. I am hoping that the tags will help on the navigation side as this evolves.  However, as I found out the hard way, Blogger has a max tag limit.  So, you might find that some books get reallocated in the future as I work on the functionality etc.

***I am going to add to this post so keep checking back.  Also, the very first post of this blog will tell you more about what I am trying to accomplish here. :)
