Know your backstock....
Good day for children's book sales today.
Noticed someone looking at the children's books and mentioned we had more in the backroom. Sold the Philip Pullman trilogy and two more books. Half an hour sold a full set of Narnia books to someone else looking at the shelf, and followed that up by selling a nice story book off the top shelf (to someone looking through the basket at the bottom).
We took around £15 on children's books, and they were almost all ones I picked out for people once I knew the age of the child. Now, all I need is a few little girls of an age to like sparkly fairy books.
We also sold one of our old/rare books for £30 (a translation of Napoleon's memoirs).
The craft section is almost sold out, so I'll replace it with either history or natural history next week.
The last of the military history books is on the shelf - they've been selling well, but most of the best ones are gone now.
Currently selling old poetry books. Often quite old in lovely bindings. The bindings, sadly, have a fair bit of damage, but the paper inside is lovely (acid-free and thin). I'm selling them very cheap because of the damage. Also have a language and literature section at present. Dictionaries tend to be popular, and lit books will sell in a separate section when they tend to remain unsold in the general fiction.
