Good for advanced beginners - Lacking much in content..., February 20, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Success Secrets of Online Auction Selling : An Insiders' Guide (Paperback)
This book is good for people who have the basics of selling online down. They know how to list an auction, take pictures, etc. It will give you the best advice I've seen yet on pricing your items, buying low, selling high. Pictures, price and title are everything, when it comes to selling. I'm an experienced seller on eBay and I found this book lacking for those of us who have figured out most of what is in the book. I wish I had the book two years ago. Recommended for advanced beginners. Experienced sellers may pick up a few pointers. I found contradictions in the book all over the place. There is so much more to selling than this book has to offer. For the price, it's worth it for those just getting their feet wet to avoid buying merchandise that is too highly priced to sell. Not worth it for sellers with more experience. Enough though for beginning sellers with the basics down. I do recommend the book, ... and liked it better than, "Starting an eBay Business for Dummies", but left wanting more that I know they could have disclosed!

I wish I would have read this book three years ago when I was just beginning to sell on eBay because I learned everything the hard way (by my own mistakes) but as an experienced eBay seller I did NOT learn anything new from reading this book. For novices and beginners !

FABULOUS BOOK! COULDN'T PUT IT DOWN!, December 23, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Success Secrets of Online Auction Selling : An Insiders' Guide (Paperback)
I ordered this book from ... based on the reviews here. Having never seen it before, I wasn't sure what to expect. To my
delight, this book was exactly what I was looking for! I am not
new to ..., having been a part of the community for a little over a year now. I wasn't looking for a how to use ... book,
I needed a book to help me sell. This book does that. It gives
you all the inside tips and strategies of top sellers so that you can market your items like a pro. If you are a powerseller, you
probably don't need this book. But for the rest of us who are either new to ebay selling or trying to get to the next level, this is the book to buy! Its full of suggestions for everything from picture taking to how to spice up your description for your item (honestly!). The book even tells you how to find out what to spend on purchases for resale, and gives you places to find items to purchase. The book isn't alot of pages, but it is alot of information for the person who really wants to improve their listings and their ... earnings. I can't recommend it highly enough! I started reading it, and I just couldn't put it down!
I just started selling a month ago and I did ok, but now I can see where I can improve and really start watching my bids soar!
I could easily have earmarked every page in this book! If you are serious about selling on e-bay and want to get the maximum bid for your items, don't miss out on this book! Buy it now!
