I just tried to list some books on half.com. I would name a book, it would say there are 7 in brand new, I click on brand new, a sign comes up the\is book is not longer available.
After I tried 4 books I gave up. Meantime, I notice my inventory has gone down about 200 books. If they eliminated some, I wish they would tell me so I can sell them elsewhere.

They emailed me 9-28-2003 and let me know which of my inventory items were being discontinued.
Is it possible you have notifications from Half.com turned off, or a spam blocker sends it to nowhere land?

(BOOKS LISTED HERE TAKEN OUT OF POST FOR RELAVANCE PURPOSES)

I understood from the message that I had no items that would be discarded. And their photo list of what I have on is down and has been all day.

You may have missed an email from Half. Ebay is selectively pruning the book selections that it wants to port over to the main site during the transition.

Not til next summer - however, it appears we are in for a lot of changes. I've started to do more things on ebay that I would have normally done on half. That's gone pretty well actually, some things have sold for MUCH more than they would have on half...I don't think this will be too bad for me, just more work...

Ebay keeps shifting from the First Quarter to the Second Quarter and back as to when the final merger will occur. I thought ebay had move it to early 2004.
