Pack Rat Corner is our at-home store, in which we offer new and used media – books, movies in DVD and VCR format, piano music and music CD’s. I am a pro-merchant (third-party) seller on the Amazon Market Place which is a great place to list and sell to customers all over the world.
We send items to some very interesting names and places. It becomes a geography lesson in a fun way, also, a linguistics and spelling lesson. We have a large world-map on the wall where we tag each new location where we ship to. This morning we sent a book to Forli, Italy for instance. We had never heard of the place so it will be interesting to zoom in on that place with the Google Earth, thus, a little vicarious travel added to the experience. Another perk is the knowledge that we have helped someone find something that they really want and, often, is a hard to find out of print, item. Sometimes a customer will write a thank you to us, saying she or he has searched for years and is so glad to have finally find it.
This year I will attempt to introduce and review much of our inventory on this blog. Readers may like to go to my online store and browse at leisure. You can scan the pages one by one, or in the search bar type the name of author or title to see if we have it. Or type the author’s name and all the books we have by that author should appear. Sometimes, the search is frustrating and won’t bring up something. This is often a glitch in the computer, at other times, can be a simple word difference in the title.
