- I have been selling on line since 1996. I've listed on most of the megasites during that time and also maintained my own web site. My favorite and only selling site now (besides my own domain) is tomfolio.com, the booksellers cooperative, mostly owned by the booksellers who use it. I'm in the process of writing a lens about this.

- Hi Cheri,
I like your lens. I have been selling books on line for about a year and really like it.
I learned about sites to go to on your blog that can be of some help to me. I put a web site together and you are welcome to visit it.

Thanks, Allan

- Hey, Cheri. An excellent lens. I have been selling online now for 7 years. I owned a brick and mortar used book store for 5 years as well, selling mostly used paperbacks. Learned more about fiction in those five years that in the rest of my life (LOL).
