Thrift - Book & Ebay Seller

Need to cancel - there’s no way to cancel ? No help ? No FAQ? It’s not reading bar codes correctly I want to opt out and it’s not letting me

The description of this app is misleading. It doesn’t give values for eBay, only for the bookscouter app. It makes you sign up for bookscouter and become “an affiliate.” I scanned numerous books and none of them except for one current very popular title were available for valuation. They need to make it clear on the description that this app really only works for textbooks and that they want you to sell your books to bookscouter, not list them on eBay.

I wish I could insert pictures

It takes over 5 minutes to process a shelf, and then it misses or does not list a price for the vast majority of the books. I think I got about 7 books identified and priced per 50 scanned, which is the maximum books per photo that they say program can handle (which it cannot, even if you lower the quantity of books). You also have to join some affiliate program for a books reseller website in order to gain access to the book scanning tool. The idea of this app is great, but it’s not functional, and therefore the developers should not have this “service” on the retail market for people to purchase yet.

Nice concept but doesn’t scan correctly.

Honestly I’m brand new to the reselling game. Im just starting out so I don’t have a ton of knowledge to be able to gauge the price of items as well as experienced sellers. So this app is a LIFE SAVER! The simple UI makes it very easy to flip through searches and find the items you need quickly. I don’t have the premium version so I can’t say how it displays the rest of the data you’d get with the premium but the free version is very powerful as is!

Loved this app, but been getting worse with each update for a while now.

The first few days this app was awesome, but now that I am out of the trial and paying monthly, it no longer shows resale value. I don’t know if that’s just a coincidence or purposeful, but I don’t know if I will continue with this app if it doesn’t do what it is supposed to do. Update: After a quick response from the developer with some tips, things are back to being what they were for the most part. Sometimes the app is overloaded due to server issues, but it is now showing resale value.

This app has all the analytics you need to find great products, and as an eBay seller it’s very helpful to have all the insights I have on terapeak but on mobile. If you are new to selling on eBay it’s also been great for learning resale values of common thrift finds, without a doubt 5 stars.

I switched from bookscouter to using the shelf scanner on this app for the last few days and although it can mess up sometimes (I guess it’s still in Beta though so makes sense), when it works man it saves me so much time, and then I just use the barcode scan on bookscouter to double check prices of high value books on the shelf scan if I need more accuracy. Thriftmagic + bookscouter is a powerhouse!
