Collectible Books not listed.
Never put in your listing that a book is collectible.Chances are that it will probably not appear on the general listing and on seller central it will be under “ other formats “ .Dont ask me why but occasionally a collectible book will be listed but not often.I am fed up with listing a signed copy for instance as collectible to find that the general public cannot see it.Anyone else share this experience?

You do have very good alternative sites to sell through.
I wouldn't be here if I didn't sell some new books, which do quite well here.

It really should be scrapped, and the 'potential price violation' algorithm scrapped for used books, to take account of all the variations
