Common Magazines, Uncommon Profits
Part I: The Basics
Gold Edition #10 $5
Big profits in common magazines? Well, if there are
any secrets to making a good living in the book biz,
selling magazines – yes, common ones included – may be
one of the best kept. And yet, given the huge numbers
that many magazines were printed in, not to mention
the frequency with which even vintage or antique
examples surface at estate sales, auctions and other
venues, it seems, at first glance, unlikely that many
of them would be worth bothering with. Au contraire,
ALMOST ALL OF THEM are worth bothering with – in fact,
they can be as profitable as high end books. How can
this be? Get the answer is in this month’s Gold
Edition.

| How to Buy & Sell Foreign Books
Gold Edition #17 $5
If you sell books written in only one language, you
will effectively eliminate the majority of this
planet's books from your pool of potential inventory.
Unless you have - or can consistently acquire - more
quality books in your native language than you know
what to do with, therefore, it makes sense to at least
consider foreign language books when they become
available for sale. There are challenges, of course,
with both buying and selling them, but to a
significant extent these can be overcome. Learn how

Mastering Bookselling Is It Really What Your Think It Is?
Gold Edition #43 $5
I thought perhaps this might be a good time ... to discuss something ... fundamental - the present
health of your businesses and what can be done to improve them. If you
believe that your business is suffering largely for reasons beyond
your control - the economy, too much competition, planet misalignment,
etc. - you won't be interested in what I have to say. On the other hand,
if you believe that you've played a large role in creating your
situation, you might want to check in. There are things you can do immediately
to turn things around.

| When "Bad" Books are Good
Gold Edition #44 $5.00
Before I resume my discussion about buying and selling hypermodern
mainstream fiction, I'm going to step back in time slightly to what is
commonly regarded as modern fiction - and not just any modern fiction but
the most collectible fiction out there. And forget about first editions.
I'm going to put some easy money in your pockets. Over the years I've
compiled a list of titles in my scouting book that are so intensely
collected that we booksellers can make good money selling copies of them
even if we never encounter anything in a first edition state.

| Buying and Selling Hypermodern Signed First Editions
Gold Edition #45 $5.00
One of the most profitable niches for the hypermodern specialist is signed first editions. Of course, not all hypermodern SFEs have
significant value - in fact, it's safe to say that most don't, either because the author signed so many copies that supply outpaces
demand or the author book isn't especially collectible. But is it practical for a bookseller to specialize in SFEs? Gold Edition #45
answers this questions - and much more.

| A Bookseller's Guide to Betty Crocker
Gold Edition #48 $5.00

I'm sure this isn't possible now, but even today, booksellers who don't know this niche cold are leaving thousands of dollars on the table year-in
and year-out.

A Primer on Buying and Selling English Language Dictionaries
Gold Edition #49 $5.00
Next to Bibles, dictionaries are perhaps the most likely book you'll encounter at sales. If you're serious about bookselling, it pays to know what to pick up and what to leave on the table - we could be talking about a difference of hundreds if not thousands of dollars in your annual income.
