Selling ebooks?

Are any of you selling ebooks on here or know anything about it? I have 8-9 ebooks that I published on Amazon for a few years, all fiction. I've temporarily taken them down--unpublished them--until my right arm heals enough for me to type again & get more books written in the series. They did very well for a long time but then sales fell to almost nothing with Kindle because I wasn't cranking out fresh content. Right now I'm planning to have them all rebranded with fresh new covers & republish when I'm able to finish a new book for each series. In the meantime, since I really need money, I thought it might not be a bad idea to sell them here. 

 

The thing is that it's clear as mud to me how to go about it. What I've read said that unless you have permission from eBay to sell ebooks that you own, you can't list in the Books category, only in Other. But nowhere can I find anything that tells me how to get that permission. ??? I called & stayed on hold forever & got an email telling me that I can only publish in Other, which conflicts with what I've read. I have grave doubts that listing ebooks in Other would net many sales.

Selling ebooks?

I'm sure that ebooks are categorized that way is because in the Books category there will always be buyers that think they're getting actual books. You're going to get some SNADs with them anyway, but it just simplifies (and clarifies) things to categorize them otherwise. Good luck~

I hadn't thought of that. Makes total sense. Thanks!
