I have been using a "secret" tool now for years that has gained me an advantage over the competition. So why do I share my secret with you? Because my business model has changed and now my online bookselling goals have shifted from individual book selling to selling book lots. Best of all its free!
The tool isn't a normal tool, but rather a site -- BookFinder4U.com
Bookfinder4U.com provides you with the tools to find new book inventory and rare books. It does this with its "Price Alert" Feature. I'll use a quote from their site to explain it better:
"Price Alert" feature enables user to set a requested price for each book in his/her Wish List and our price scanning bot will periodically search the lowest price of the selected book, and an alert email will be sent out if the requested price is met by the new lowest price. For each book in your Wish List, there's a "Price Alert" link, the default is set to Price Alert [Off]. If you click that link, you will be brought to the page where you can set and enable price alert for "total price"(incl. shipping) or "item price". Your price alert information will be stored in our database and our price scanning robot will periodically scan your requested books and you will be alerted via your member email once your requested price is met.
As you can see Price Alerts is simple, but powerful. I recommend spending a week just putting in all the books you commonly resell, and more obscure harder to find books in the price alert and setting the price at which you want the price alert to occur. This will always give you instant notification when these books come up for sale at good deals, and you can snatch it up resell it(often at the same site you bought it from).
Bookfinder4u.com's Price Alert - an important tool in your online book selling arsenal.
