I have decided to try an experiment with The Handbook of Online and Social Media Research and I am going to try selling two copies via eBay. I am very happy with its ranking on Amazon.co.uk, but a little disappointed that Amazon.com won’t be shipping until October.
So, I have posted two copies for sale via auction, one an unsigned copy and one a signed copy. They have both started at £4.99 which represents a great bargain compared with buying it online where the price is about £27 (the price in a book shop is £39.99). So, if you want to secure a cheap copy it is probably worth a bid whilst prices remain low.
I have listed one signed and one unsigned copy to see what the price difference is (will my ego stand it if the signed copy goes for less, or does not sell at all?)

This is like Econ 101 all over again.
Imagine how exciting it would be if the final price for the unsigned copy falls between £27 and £39.99!
