I have read several books about Ebay & enjoyed them all. When I started Lynn Dralle's "Unofficial Guide" I could not put that book down! I started pulling out those little sticky marker flags and plastered up my book for my future reference. The book is well written & is very motivating. It has me ready to begin a new career of selling on Ebay. The book is GREAT! Thank you.

I read this book cover to cover TWICE before starting my eBay sales. It was priceless! When I made my first listing I literally used this book to guide me through the process step by step. It was fantastic. I have since bought ALL of Lynn's books. She is a marvelous mentor! You don't need anything else!

I thought I knew all about ebay, but learned a lot reading Lynn Dralle's version! Delightful easy reading. Enjoyed it so much I could hardly put it down to get started. Her stories make it easy for anyone to get started selling and buying on ebay.

This book is a must have for any Ebay entrepreneur! This book has alot of invaluable information. From listing to packing to shipping. Alot of little tips that will not only save you money but will make you money!

I highly recommend this book to everyone.

I read this book a few years ago and gave it away. I decided to buy another and the information helped me even more now than it did a few years ago. The authors did a great job of sharing both their knowledge and expertise in a book well worth reading.

This book is very well set-up and easy to follow. She seems to cover every aspect of ebay...and went over things that I would never have thought of. It would take a long time to learn all of this on your own.

In the books of this author, she makes a point that for items under 100 dollars she will bargain the original seller at garage sales down to nothing. Then she turns around and sells them for 10 times as much. She claims that is the only way to make money. Well, you can make money with Ebay and not exploit people like this. There are different ways to do this, but you do not have to exploit people to do this, even with the new Ebay rules, which seem to be somewhat randomly enforced.

She says any item over 100 dollars should be sold for 100 dollars more. Do the math!! What is the profit of 100 dollars on a sale of 100 dollars compared to 100 dollars on a sale of 900 dollars. It is not equivalent.

Capitalism does NOT have to mean exploitation of the weakest--it can also mean fair trade. There are much better books by Marsha Collier, Skip McGrath, and many others. Avoid this book if you like to treat people fairly.
