• May. 8, 2006 - Curriculum Sale Contest

Posted in HSB News

So, we can't sell teacher books on e-bay.  Does that mean we will be stuck with teacher books cluttering our garages and bookshelves, while we wait for a local curriculum sale? 

 

I don't think so! 

 

So, what can we do about e-bay's ban on teachers manuals?  Right here at HSB you can go to The County Fair where you can buy and sell your used curriculum.  You can sell other products, you can trade!  With NO percentage fees!  Homeschool parents need all the money they can get from the sale of their books, don't give it to e-bay! 

 

We may not be able to hold out for the highest bidder, but if you can't sell your teacher's edition, it won't put money in your pocket.

 

Here's the deal; So many bloggers don't know anything about The County Fair.  That makes it a little harder to sell.  If we all help get the word out, then maybe we can make HSB's County Fair the place to buy and sell used curriculum!

 

I will choose a random winner to win this Level 1, Grades 3-5, Spelling Bee game!  (Slightly used, in keeping with the theme of this contest.) (Still, it's in very good condition, as I said, slightly used!)

 

Just copy and paste the following in a post on your blog.  Leave a comment here telling me that you have, and the link so I can check it out.  Anyone is welcome to particpate, not just HSB bloggers.  Contest will close May 15th.

 

Sagerats is having a contest to help promote The HSB County Fair where you can sell and buy used curriculum, EVEN teacher edition's/guide's/answer key's, with no host percentage fees!

 

Thanks Spunky for the copy and paste idea, it makes it so easy!  I am receiving absolutely nothing for doing this contest or post, from any interested party.  So there.

Do you have to register separately to get on the forums?

The idea of being able to sell stuff this way sounds great.

Blessings,

I have a TON of stuff to sell and have been putting off ebay. I'll list it all here. I keep forgetting we have this available. If we all take advantage of it, we could have a wonderful resource! Thanks for the heads - up.

Posted by Mileshouse
Okay, I sat here with 2 tubs of books at my side, ready to post away...and I can't figure out how to log in to the forums! Apparently my old log in has expired, and it won't let me use my email addy to re-register.

Any suggestions?

Thanks for letting me know about ebay's policy and about the sale forums on HSB. I wasn't aware of either one.

OK. I did it. Here's the link: http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/heidim/133637/

I'm glad you are doing this. I had no idea that e-Bay was no longer allowing people to sell teacher's manuals. I usually sell in the summer. I will have to check out the HSB Fair.

I am going to post it on my blog, though, because I want to get the word out about the Flea Market!
