For the past two years, I have been a buyer and seller of merchandise at Half.com. After at least 200 purchases at their online store and selling over $250 worth of merchandise, I would like to relay my experiences with you concerning the strengths and...

Half.com, for the oblivious, is a site where a seller posts an item that has been gathering dust in a closet and a buyer buys it for a reduced price. Maybe oversimplified, but that's it at it’s very base. I have experienced both the buyer side and the...

Half.com is the sister site to Ebay. The listings are for used and new books and recordings. The site offers sellers a chance to sell their items at a fixed price set by them and the buyers a chance to buy items the same way. The fixed price is a ...

"Epinions is a great tool for the writer and consumer. Since I am both, early in December I choose to test out the whole HALF.COM thing. Is HALF.COM worth using?"

Pros: Great place to find bargains! Cons: Buyer Still Beware
Have you tried the online auctions only to be frustrated that the item you have bid on and waited to own for nearly two weeks has been snatched out of your grasp at the last minute? Or have you painstakingly bid for a long awaited item that grew so...

Pros: Inexpensive way to find the books you want Cons: Some sleezy sellers
Half.com is quickly becoming one of my favorite web sites. This is a site where you can both, buy and sell books, music, movies/DVD or games. What makes this site so special is that it is not an auction site where you have to pray to be...

Pros: Great prices. Site is user friendly. Cons: No personal contact with sellers/buyers.
I purchased an Elmo N64 game from Half.com for her birthday. I was surprised at the great price (about 20.00). The item was new and factory sealed as it was described.
Many times I had not purchased from this site for a couple of...

Half.com is the perfect, multipurpose website for both buying and selling general items. I first came across the site after going to an ATM and finding a Half.com coupon on the back of my receipt. That $5.00 off coupon was just the...

Pros: Wide variety of used/new books, music and videos to chose from. Cons: Shipping charges add up; need way to combine charges from same vendor.
Not so long ago, I was looking forward to sales at my local Tower Records, and book markdowns at a few sticks and mortar places like Barnes and Noble and Costco.
If I had to have something right now, I'd pay full price on-line...

Half.com is a great place to find tons of different items. I've been using it to buy and sell college textbooks for quite some time and for the most part I've been very pleased with my experiences. I am not sure when I first started using ...

Pros: List your junk, price your junk, make money on the junk. Buy cool new junk! Cons: Mailing things out takes time and requires a trip to the post office.
Do you read books, watch movies, listen to music, or play video games? Do you have any electronics or computer equipment collecting dust in your house? Chances are, you are just like me and have accumulated a ton of junk over the years. How much of it do...

Pros: Cheap way to buy books,DVDs, etc. Cons: Shipping is high.
I am an avid user of ebay and had heard from that site and various advertisements about Half.com. I can easily get addicted to auction sites, so I have to watch myself. I finally checked out Half.com when I was looking everywhere on the internet to...

Half.com is the best way to buy and sell used books and CDs online. First, you have to be clear that even though EBay owns Half.com, Half.com is NOT an auction site. It is a fixed price site. I have both bought dozens of items on Half.com, and I have ...
