Welcome to KCUsedGuy! I am a one-person seller. My number one goal is your satisfaction. That is why I do things differently.
Yes, my prices are sometimes a bit higher on books compared to the "big" guys. Here is why:
-I inspect every book and give it an honest rating. No generic text describing a class of books but not THIS book!
-I back that up with pictures of this exact item. l take as many as I need to show condition, good and bad. If a seller is only showing you a stock image, you might as well put that money on blackjack!
-I will ship the next business day in most cases - sometimes even the same day!
-I package each book to survive any trip. I won't close the package until I am sure the book won't budge.
-Finally, I'm not big enough to lose money on low end books. I must cover at least the shipping and fees or why am I here? I'm happy to do that for books where dozens of copies exist, but I'll still be higher than the lowest prices.
Check out my reviews. At the time of this writing, I have over 75 positive reviews with no neutral or negative reviews. My customers are not just satisfied; they are glowing in praise. I hope you are my next buyer! Let me know what I can do to make that happen.
