5.0 out of 5 stars Step by Step Guide to Buying & Selling on the Internet, May 31, 2000
This review is from: Online Auctions: The Internet Guide for Bargain Hunters and Collectors (CommerceNet) (Paperback)
Online Auctions is a well-researched book, full of examples and illustrations.

It is a great "how to" book for the beginning online auction entrepreneur. It guides you step by step, from start to finish, whether you are the buyer or the seller.

I found it very informative from the seller's point of view because I've never sold anything online. It provides excellent tips on how to word your ad. It expressed how the timing of your ad can make or break your auction. I wouldn't have given this much thought but I now know the start time/end time and day of the week start time/end time are critical.

Online Auctions also pointed out that catergorizing your items might make a difference on the number of bids and the amount of the bids you receive.

This book stressed the importance of researching buyers and sellers, how to do it and why.

Online Auctions spelled out the process to attach a picture to your auction. I didn't realize it was such an ordeal.

This book also introduced me to the ins and outs of dutch auctions. I hadn't heard of these before reading this book.

Online Auctions-The Internet Guide for Bargain Hunters and Collectors is a must for someone who has not been involved in the online auction world but would like to be.
