What a Great Book! August 16, 2008

This book by Marsh Collier is as about as good as it gets. It is easy to understand. Though the book was written a few years ago, all of the information is still relevant. A few of the tools, etc. that are listed and described are revised on eBay's site, but the changes are rather minor and her how-to lessons are perfect. I highly suggest anyone wanting to buy and/or sell on eBay purchase this book. A++
entry-level all-around book about starting a non-hightech Ebay business January 7, 2008

I purchased this as a gift for a friend because I owned the previous edition. The book is well written and contains a lot of practical advice and reference material about various facets of starting and running an Ebay business. It is also written from a point of view of a person with a non-technical background (that is, in computers or finance) who was forced to make a living off Ebay and succeeded at that. The book thus concentrates on extracting revenue from general merchandise using Ebay as a re-distribution channel. Naturally, all-around books always overlap with other sources. On-line help from the Ebay site, if you do not get lost in it, would shave off a good quarter of this book, and if you are literate in on-line 'data mining' and computers in general, another good portion of this book is superfluos. Also, most of the practical advice about using wholesale outlets and on-line stores is useless outside of the USA. All that said, this is a good all-around book for starters and it can serve as that last push that gets you going, if you are still uncertain about Ebay business.
Covers and Answers Basic Questions Regarding Opening an eBay Store December 12, 2007

I had been dabbling on eBay for auctions only when I considered opening an eBay store as my retirement job. This was the first book I purchased to help me achieve that goal. It totally answered all the pros and cons of opening a store, and based on that information, I decided to 'go for it'. Mostly it was the mechanics I was interested in - and Marcia Collins provided those answers regarding fees, creating an About Me profile, Selling Manager, store listing times & fees, sourcing products, record keeping, and more. I've also purchased a book by Suzanne Wells ~ the Ebay Coach
specifically aimed in more detail toward helping Stay-At-Home Moms (SAHMs) achieve these goals Stay-At-Home Mom's Guide to Successful eBay Selling. In less than a year, I achieved Power Seller status! Based on that information, after becoming more experienced, I've joined eBay Specific Seller forums, learned to network on WAHM-SAHM boards, and created a successful Blog where I share the tips I've benefited from. If you are simply interested in setting up a store and just starting out and want to know the basic details of how an eBay store business functions, this book is written in language that speaks towards that reader.

Very interesting read. Alot of great insider tips. I'm looking forward to getting started with an eBay business after reading this book. I read it cover to cover, but it can also just be used as a reference book.
