Sharing is caring!

Selling no longer used items from around the house is one of the most popular ways to make money online. Some categories of items tend to be more in-demand and easier to sell such as books and electronics. People don’t mind buying them second-hand and they tend to be easy to ship.

There are several ways to get rid of unwanted books, electronics, DVDs, or video games. If you’re looking for a convenient way to get rid of these items, you may be interested in Amazon’s trade-in program. You can receive free Amazon gift cards for items you trade, plus Amazon will pay for shipping costs on the items you send them. Here’s an overview of the quick and easy process:

Search For Items – The first step to trading in merchandise is searching for the items you wish to sell on Amazon’s trade-in site. The categories in which Amazon accepts trade-ins are as follows:

Phones Cameras Laptops & Tablets Wearables Textbooks & Books Video Games TV & Movies Music MP3 Players Other Electronics

If the item is available for trade-in, you’ll see the trade-in price and a button that will add the merchandise to your trade-in list.

The price Amazon offers can vary widely between items, so make sure you’re going to get as much or more than you could selling the item elsewhere. If you are trading in books, you can check prices at Bookscouter. If you are trading in electronics, compare prices to those at sites like Decluttr and Gazelle.

Review Your Trade-in List – After you’ve added all the items you want to trade, Amazon will display your Trade-in List. You can see the total amount of Amazon credit that you’ll receive. Some items may be worth different prices based on their condition. Amazon will assume the lowest acceptable condition and upgrade when your items are inspected. This means that you may end up getting more credit than the price displayed on this list.

Print Labels and Ship Package – Now you’ll need to print the shipping labels and securely package your merchandise. Amazon will pay the postage costs for the items. This can be an important consideration when you are deciding whether to sell the items through Amazon’s marketplace or trade them in. Sellers pay for postage in the marketplace, so you have to deduct that cost from your bottom line. If the trade-in price is close to what you could sell it for, it’s probably a better idea to stick with a trade-in. Once your items are boxed and ready, simply mail it from your home or drop it off at a post office.

Watch for Confirmation Emails – Amazon will email you upon receipt of your trade-in package. This email will also notify you of any condition changes. With a little luck, you’ll get more money because your items are in perfect condition! Also, if any items are unacceptable, Amazon will let you know and ship those back to you for free. After your items are inspected, you’ll get an email with your total trade-in amount. The credit is added to your account and can be used on your next Amazon purchase. Or, save it up for funding your Christmas shopping.

There have been reports of trade-ins being downgraded for reasons unknown to the consumer. If you run into this situation, contact customer service. During the trade-in process Amazon will ask you what you want them to do should your item be downgraded; return the item to you at no charge or accept the lower payment. Opt for the return if possible and try selling it through another means if you feel the item is in good condition and worth more than their lowest price offer.

Overall, the Amazon trade-in process is easy and convenient. While you could possibly make more money selling some items directly or via other sites or stores, the convenience of Amazon’s streamlined process has its advantages. And for some trusted purchasers, payment is instant. You don't even have to wait for Amazon to receive your item in the mail. This can come in handy should you have an expected gift to buy or an emergency purchase comes up. An “Instant Payment” button will be displayed during the trade-in process if you are eligible for immediate store credit. Please be aware that if you take the instant payment and Amazon rejects the item or downgrades the payment upon receipt of the item for some reason, you will be charged the amount of the instant payment.

The next time you have a pile of items to get rid of, check the trade-in prices on Amazon first!

Andy’s Great Gift Ideas

So many people, so many gifts to buy. Now for some they will get the obligatory Barbra Streisand album that was on sale at the checkout line of WalMart. But hey, your grumpy workmate could really benefit from some Streisand. So it’s a win-win.

But for those close friends and family you want to get the perfect gift. Especially with electronics and toys it is a challenge, as new things are coming out each year. To ease the pain and save you time, I’ve picked out some of my favorite items in each category.

Top Electronic Holiday Gifts

Electronics are always a popular gift during the holidays and never disappoint. And there’s no shortage of options. Should you buy a tablet the kids? 4k TV for your man? New smartphone for your lady?

To help out, here are my favorite electronic gifts!

Let’s first start with my number 1 top pick: the Amazon Echo and Amazon Tap.

The Amazon Echo has been out now for a little while. Considering the price, its feature list is impressive. Basically, it’s a bluetooth speaker and voice activated computer all in one. Yes. Mind. Blown.

Bluetooth speaker with great sound Voice controlled, even from across the room Also plays from Amazon Music, Pandora, Spotify, and more Can control smart home electronics and power outlets Able to provide a variety of online information via voice command

After initially using the mobile app to configure it, you can use voice commands to have Echo control any lighting, electronics, or other smart home devices that you have installed. It also plays music from Pandora, Spotify, iTunes, and of course any bluetooth device.

It really is amazing. To fully appreciate it, you just need to go to Amazon’s page and read about it yourself.

A mobile option with a rechargeable batter is the Echo’s cousin the Amazon Tap. It has the same great features but it also adds the mobility as most bluetooth speakers have.

There are also a variety of cases that you can buy to protect it, and the design seems to be a little more rugged to handle the frequent moving.

The Amazon Dot is the Voice Activated part of the Echo, minus the speaker. I enjoy having the Amazon Dot to connect to my surround sound stereo system and make it voice controlled.

Tablets are always a great gift. Whether for your parents, spouse, or kids, there is a tablet priced just right for each one.

When it comes to ease of use, Many find Apple’s iPads to be the best. And iPads are still considered by many to be the premium tablets. The quality of the screens and its speed are always stand-out features.

For me, though, I loved Android tablets. Several Samsung Galaxy tablets are in my house, but some others like Sony and Dell have some nice options these days.

4k TVs were way too overpriced a few years ago. But this year 4k TVs are starting to replace regular HDTVs. An increase in 4k content and the lower price point I think have really sped up this shift.

Whether you are buying it for yourself as the ultimate treat, or a family member, 4k TVs are a gift that will keep on giving for years to come.

I personally have always used Samsung and Sony TVs. I had a Samsung HDTV that lasted over 10 years before I sold it. Great picture and held up fantastically. However, LG has put out some very competitive models recently so you should definitely consider them as well. Most models come in a variety of sizes so you can select the size best for you after the link.

I realize that cheaper brands like Vizio and TCL are quite popular. But you get what you pay for. For many, paying 25% less is worth a lower quality contrast or clarity. The way I see it though, is that You will spend more time with your TV in the next 5 years than any other electronic (besides your phone), so I want it to be the best.

Gifts for Him

My wife says that men are harder to buy gifts for.

Apparently it’s because technical things like a computer or new tool (if you are a handyman) is difficult to know what model is needed. Especially if they aren’t used to researching those things. And she says that men usually don’t care about smaller items, and there are only so many sweaters and watches that can be bought.

It’s okay ladies. I understand your predicament. So from a man’s perspective here some great gift ideas.

On a Budget

Hey nobody is made of money. And despite my best efforts, I have yet to get it to grow on the trees in my back yard. So here are some more budget conscious options for that special man in your life.

If he already has a 4k Blu-Ray player, then really any 4k movie will be perfect for him, not just the one shown below.

And nearly every man can use a custom shot glass, even if he prefers non-alcoholic drinks.

Splurging Some

If you really want something that will stand out, here are some more expensive gifts that will be sure to please him.

What kind of guy is he? If he is into sports or exercising, then the GoPro camera or Smart watch are great ideas. Does he love music? Every man should have a high-end pair of headphones or bluetooth speaker for when working in the garage out on the patio.

Is he into beer or alcohol? Quirky gifts like the beer cap map will look great in his office or “man cave”.

Gifts for Her

What do women want?

This is a difficult question, and one that depends on your special lady’s personality and style. But to prevent me from talking about things I do not fully understand, I have invited fellow site writer Melissa to help me out with this list!

So here are Melissa’s ideas for great holiday gifts for that special woman in your life.

On a Budget

LISTEN UP MEN! Melissa is going to give you some advice.

MELISSA: Men sometimes think that gifts for a woman always need to be sentimental. And of course there are definitely times when they need to be, and there are some women who favor those kinds of gifts. But that is not always the case, especially if you have been married several years, or maybe it’s for your mother or sister.

I have not included any clothes on this list, as you men REALLY have to know her size and style for that be a successful gift.

However, earrings and necklaces are always safe, as you don’t have to worry about sizing (unlike rings and bracelets). The benefit to earrings, though, is that they tend to be more versatile and match more outfits.

Splurging Some

MELISSA: Have you ever thought a high quality, stylish blanket? During winter months it’s a practical gift that she will enjoy everyday.

And you men can never go wrong with diamond earrings. Just one word of caution – find out if she prefers white gold or yellow gold. If she likes white gold then consider buying platinum, which is nicer and will not lose it’s color as is the case with white gold.

Does she baths? Get a basket set with those items in it.

Top Toys & Board Games

It seems each year there is a new hot “must-have” toy. I don’t know about you, but it can be so much work finding out what is popular with kids! And who wants to spend hours researching toys when you can be spiking the punch at your party?

Before we get to my list, here is my favorite! Exploding Kittens – The Card Game.

Hey don’t judge me from its name.

According to the game’s description, it is “a card game for people who are into kittens and explosions and laser beams and sometimes goats”. Who doesn’t like laser beams? Or kittens? This game’s creator must be raking in money!

The game plays somewhat like the card game Uno, after being dipped into a bowl of crazy and sprinkled with kitten tears and laughter. Sorry that I spoiled the game from that description.

It’s a card game. With kittens. And lasers. And goats. Grandma will LOVE it!

Amazon. com Gift Ideas: The most popular items ordered as gifts in Electronics

404 means the file is not found. If you have already uploaded the file then the name may be misspelled or it is in a different folder.

Other Possible Causes

You may get a 404 error for images because you have Hot Link Protection turned on and the domain is not on the list of authorized domains.

If you go to your temporary url (http://ip/

Username/) and get this error, there maybe a problem with the rule set stored in an. htaccess file. You can try renaming that file to. htaccess-backup and refreshing the site to see if that resolves the issue.

It is also possible that you have inadvertently deleted your document root or the your account may need to be recreated. Either way, please contact your web host immediately.

Are you using WordPress? See the Section on 404 errors after clicking a link in WordPress.

How to find the correct spelling and folder

Missing or Broken Files

When you get a 404 error be sure to check the URL that you are attempting to use in your browser. This tells the server what resource it should attempt to request.

In this example the file must be in public_html/example/Example/

Notice that the CaSe is important in this example. On platforms that enforce case-sensitivity EXample and EXample are not the same locations.

For addon domains, the file must be in public_html/addondomain. com/example/Example/ and the names are case-sensitive.

Broken Image

When you have a missing image on your site you may see a box on your page with with a red X where the image is missing. Right click on the X and choose Properties. The properties will tell you the path and file name that cannot be found.

This varies by browser, if you do not see a box on your page with a red X try right clicking on the page, then select View Page Info, and goto the Media Tab.

In this example the image file must be in public_html/cgi-sys/images/

Notice that the CaSe is important in this example. On platforms that enforce case-sensitivity PNG and Png are not the same locations.

404 Errors After Clicking WordPress Links

When working with WordPress, 404 Page Not Found errors can often occur when a new theme has been activated or when the rewrite rules in the. htaccess file have been altered.

When you encounter a 404 error in WordPress, you have two options for correcting it.

Option 1: Correct the Permalinks

Log in to WordPress. From the left-hand navigation menu in WordPress, click Settings >Permalinks (Note the current setting. If you are using a custom structure, copy or save the custom structure somewhere.) Select Default. Click Save Settings. Change the settings back to the previous configuration (before you selected Default). Put the custom structure back if you had one. Click Save Settings.

This will reset the permalinks and fix the issue in many cases. If this doesn't work, you may need to edit your. htaccess file directly.

Option 2: Modify the. htaccess File

Add the following snippet of code to the top of your. htaccess file:

# BEGIN WordPress

RewriteEngine On

RewriteBase /

RewriteRule ^index. php$ - [L]

RewriteCond % !-f

RewriteCond % !-d

RewriteRule. /index. php [L]

# End WordPress

If your blog is showing the wrong domain name in links, redirecting to another site, or is missing images and style, these are all usually related to the same problem: you have the wrong domain name configured in your WordPress blog.

How to modify your. htaccess file

The. htaccess file contains directives (instructions) that tell the server how to behave in certain scenarios and directly affect how your website functions.

Redirects and rewriting URLs are two very common directives found in a. htaccess file, and many scripts such as WordPress, Drupal, Joomla and Magento add directives to the. htaccess so those scripts can function.

It is possible that you may need to edit the. htaccess file at some point, for various reasons. This section covers how to edit the file in cPanel, but not what may need to be changed.(You may need to consult other articles and resources for that information.)

There are Many Ways to Edit a. htaccess File

Edit the file on your computer and upload it to the server via FTP Use an FTP program's Edit Mode Use SSH and a text editor Use the File Manager in cPanel

The easiest way to edit a. htaccess file for most people is through the File Manager in cPanel.

How to Edit. htaccess files in cPanel's File Manager

Before you do anything, it is suggested that you backup your website so that you can revert back to a previous version if something goes wrong.
