Simple from the start
How to sell used books online in Kenya
Photograph identifying details
Photograph the front cover, back cover, spine and publication page. Include examples of the inside condition and show highlighting, notes, torn pages, water damage or worn bindings. For physical media, photograph the disc, case, label and any scratches that could affect playback.
Use searchable book information
Enter the exact title, author, edition, publisher, ISBN or format where available. Describe the condition and state whether notes or missing pages are present. For bundles, list every title rather than calling the listing simply “books,” and set one clear price for everything included.
Confirm the edition and delivery
Answer questions about the edition, syllabus, bundle contents and condition through Juuhudi. Confirm the final price and whether the buyer will collect or pay for delivery. Package books and physical media to prevent bending or water damage, then confirm payment before dispatch or handover.
Selling a whole shelf
Split the valuable ones out.
List sought-after titles and current textbook editions individually where they will be searched for by name, and group the rest into clearly itemised bundles by subject, author or age range.
- ✓List frequently searched titles on their own.
- ✓Name every title included in a bundle.
- ✓Never describe an old edition as the current one.
