The Seller Ledger: An Auction Organizer for Selling on eBay [Spiral-bound]

Hillary DePiano (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 30, 2007

Set up like a traditional ledger, The Seller Ledger allows sellers to keep track of fees, profits, feedback, addresses, tracking information, shipping and handling costs and much more all in one place. Item information about your sales and auctions is only kept on eBay for 90 days so millions of sellers have found the value of keeping a hard copy of their records to minimize mistakes and for running a more efficient business in the online marketplace. Whether you are a Power Seller or just someone looking to sell enough to clean out their attic, the value of organizing all your eBay information in one place is immeasurable. Specifically designed for the online marketplace, it also contains the most recent fees for both eBay and PayPal on a handy "cheat sheet" while including ways to keep track of Non-Paying bidder alerts, returns, and other eBay procedures. With room for over 500 auctions! FEES INCLUDED HAVE BEEN UPDATED TO NEW FEBRUARY 22nd, 2006 RATES.

5.0 out of 5 stars A MUST for All Ebay Sellers!!, June 10, 2005

By 

Kimberly K. (Michigan, USA) - See all my reviews

This Ebay Seller Ledger is a must-have for all Ebay sellers! The Auction Organizer keeps all information readily at hand and helps make selling on Ebay a breeze.

I especially like that I can carry the spiral-bound notebook with me everywhere I go. The notebook takes up minimal space but holds a ton of data! The "cheat sheets" and other info in the notebook help a seller minimize mistakes and realize a profit--which is mostly why people sell on Ebay to begin with.

I truly love this notebook. Using it has gone a long way in de-cluttering my home office!

If I had to recommend one tool for Ebay sellers, this would be it. So, what are you waiting for? Get one today and I promise you will not regret the purchase.

If you spend any amount of time listing on E-Bay this wonderful spiral-bound ledger is a great time saver. First there is a great fee "cheat sheet". Of course you can look this information up but it sure is nice to have all the information on listing fees, reserve price fees, insertion fees, final value fees and the fee for paypal transaction on one simple to use and understand sheet.
The ledger part also is a great time saver and wonderful way to stay organized. It has a column for everything you need including opening fees/reserve price, listing fees, other fees, final value, final value fees, charged shipping and handling, amount paid, paypal fees, auctual shipping charges, date shipped, tracking number and a lot more.
For anyone that loves selling on EBay but could use a little help staying organized and keeping the books. All in one simple to understand, straight forward, and well planned ledger I highly recommend this.
