This review is from: Make Serious Money on Ebay UK (Paperback)
My apologies to Dan Wilson, but wish you came out with this book years before I discovered the opportunities on eBay UK by coincidence.
If this was published years ago, it would have been an aspiration for sellers to do business in the UK, but now, it is very tough unless you have a unique product with practically no competition. I used to do $10~$15,000 (USD) per month sales in the UK without much effort, but for the past few years eBay has been making changes after changes that did nothing but hurt sellers (much more damage caused to international sellers), basically eBay shot themselves in the foot with their stupidity in poor decision making. I just watched my numbers go down slowly over the past two years to practically zero, till I completely shut down my UK sales and just focused on the U.S. alone. And for those, who may think I am the cause, my product was and still is popular in the UK, I have more UK customers buying from my U.S. listings than the UK, even though many prices were heavily reduced in the UK. I was never the highest nor the lowest in price, but always got a decent share of the pie in the past. I have 100% positive feedback with thousands of feedback, 4.9 on DSRs and earned the 'Top Seller' award with a 20% eBay discount, but it still did me no good with the changes eBay geniuses have implemented.
