Michael Eavis is reported as being disappointed with the quality of the tickets printed for this years Glastonbury Festival (BBC Story). Tickets are now appearing on eBay, though it does look like there is some Auction Wrecking going on as this example shows -
Anyone wanting to risk the getting turned away on the gates as the photo part of the ID must be backed up by other forms of ID, so there's no real way around this added security level.
As for anyone fool enough to think the car park tickets will enable them to get close enough to try and sneak in better think again as there will be a check that car occupants have tickets before they actually leave the main road to drive the mile or 2 to the actual car-parks! Even if a 'fence-jumper' gets close enough to the fence they will be quite disappointed when faced by the impregnable 'Ring-of-Steel'. In the 2 previous years that this fence has been used there has been no reports of anyone successfully getting over it, and very few actual attempts at it either. The fence is 10ft of solid metal with a 3foot angled overhang, even the SAS would consider this impossible to scale without equipment. The other popular idea has always been tunneling under it, well as the same material that is used for the fence is also laid on the ground next to the fence and bolted to the uprights this is also making tunneling impossible to all but the most hardened miners. The enclosed road either side of the fence to allow security to drive quickly to any point of the fence with floodlights and a secondary 8 foot mesh 'Heras' fence, either side of this road means the tower lookouts will get plenty of time to get a patrol to you before you even touched the 'Ring-of-Steel'.
Basically, if you haven't got a ticket, forget about trying to get in and stock up at home to catch the web-cam, webcasts, TV coverage and Radio broadcasts courtesy of the BBC. You may also want to be thankful of clean porcelain and cold, reasonably priced beer without having to queue!
You can catch up with our adventures of the festival here on our glastonbury page which we hope to be updating the slideshow daily during the festival!
The Book Garden will be appearing at this years Glastonbury Festival alongside such acts as The Arctic Monkeys, The Killers, Iggy Pop, The Who, Bjork, Chemical Brothers and many more! Well, we won't actually be on stage as such, and selling books isn't exactly performance art, but we'll be there with a stock of approx 4,000 books. The majority will be general fiction, though we will be have a large selection of Travel Guides, Art Books, and Theatre Texts & Plays as well as sections on Health and Spirituality.
You will be able to find us on C market and this little map will hopefully be a guide to where we'll be. So pop in and see us, books will be available from 30p and very few will be priced more than a fiver. We also intend to offer a post home service for those who'd rather not carry a book around or want to send a gift to a friend/relative from the festival.
If we can get online we will be posting updates here and on this web page
Unbelievable! That was my first reaction when I came across this book! The old saying - "If something looks to good to be true, it's probably because it is too good to be true". (this is the only instance in the English language where a double positive becomes a negative!)
Sharon Fussell makes some quite astounding promises in this book which is for sale at £37, quite a hefty sum for a book that only has 85pages. The claim that you can easily make that sort of money from only a couple of hours work a day and with only the need for a a couple of shelves of books, is far fetched. I know very few sellers who are able to source the kind of niche stock that would enable that performance.
How you can make 86p extra pure profit on each and every book by almost doing nothing! - It's called signing up and paying a monthly Pro-Merchant Fee!
If you have a spare room, you could be making £36,000 a year as an international bookseller! - You'd need a pretty big room! Say about 500-1000sq feet!
you can look forward to becoming an international book seller and earning at least £6,000-£15,000+ per year working about 1 hour a day from home - From the few people I know that got into selling on Amazon from buying this book, none have achieved what is claimed. And they have stated that the amazon seller boards provide much more valuable advice and assistance than this book did.
The only people I know who can even approach the claims made on the amount of profit from such low amounts of stock and work are those who have expert knowledge of niche markets. For example, if you were an expert on, let's say, books about wheelbarrows, and could source stock from the wheelbarrow college weekly carboot sale very cheaply and resell quickly for a very good price, you may be able to make that sort of money easily. Though for most specialists there knowledge of book genres and where to source them is the result of years of experience and they do not pass this sort of experience on!

Being an Amazon Affiliate/Associate is still fairly new & exciting for me! I only discovered aStore's recently and have only been using them since April. In the last month I created my own tutorial on How To Build An Amazon aStore, which you can see here. It's getting a reasonable amount of traffic and a fairly decent page ranking in google too! Though am finding that most of my sales seem to be generated from traffic to my own website - The Book Garden.
I've also messed around a bit with google pages, a free and easy web site creation package from google. You can see some of the results of this by looking at my tutorial on aStores and my alternative book garden website, which has given me more scope in creating more pages than I get with my .co.uk site, this only came with a limited (very) sitebuilder set up. Google Pages have proven excellent for a person at my level of experience with building websites. Maybe in the next month or two I'll look into building a proper website!
Anyway, I wanted to share some of the weird and wonderful things that were bought via my aStore this month! My favorite first as I earned £7 commission on this! If you hover over each item you should get a nice little detail window show!
We're Going! The Book Garden will be at this years Festival selling fiction, travel books, art books, theatre books and childrens books. We are offering to mail them to you so you don't have to carry them home. Though many will be wanting a book to read while lazing in the sun in front of the various stages whilst waiting for the band of their dreams to play. Come and see us, we're on C Market and would love it if you came and said hello! The stall will be shutting at a reasonable time each evening as we do want to see some bands!
The Line up is looking spectacular and we're already trying to work out how to be in several places at once. Do we see The Killers or Iggy Pop on the saturday night? Arrrrrrrrrrrggggggghhhhh! Friday night is easy as The Arctic Monkeys just can't be competed with!
