Ebay Selling

The author does a good job of explaining how to make money on Ebay. A strength of the work is that the author presents a real life story of a successful Ebay seller. The book traces through the daily routine and establishes the work necessary to monitor sales on an ongoing basis. The author explains how to get inventory. i.e. o household belongings (stuff you rarely use) o estate sales o thrift sales o manufacturer overstock o government surplus o overstock o other auctions Once purchases are made, the typical Ebay seller goes home, takes pictures and does write-ups of the inventory available for sale on Ebay. The book explains the necessity of knowing what is "hot" and taking advantage of "branching" into new categories based upon personal experience. The power selling is done through the "Turbolister". The author indicates the importance of describing items completely. I can attest to this by my personal experience with some Ebay sales. Pricing is critical so that the items you list will move quickly and profitably because listing charges do mount over time. Acquire this book and have fun !
