How do people make money on Amazon?

Question

it does not make sense to me.. i am trying to sell a book and other people are selling it for like 45 cents and it is a big heavy book.. and Amazon charges $3.99 for shipping which they give to you but then they also take about $3.39 out for commision... so when i go to sell it i will have to pay for the shipping on my own.. how the heck does that work.. i will be losing money.. not gaining profit??? anybody with experience please help..thanks

Answer 1

I have 100 old, used books on my bookshelf. At 50 cents a piece that is 50 dollars for the useless junk. True market value might be 20 bucks for all that stuff and I'll thrown in the 20 or 30 dollar bookshelf as a free gift. No books means I don't need it. My books really aren't worth anything.

Answer 2

I have the same problem .......... Its the rich getting richer and the middle class getting the shaft. .......... Good luck..... I work with ebay and it is not too much better.
