Reader ReviewsI've purchased things on e-bay but never sold anything there. So I started reading this book with a view to selling some camera and computer items that I had collecting dust. First I decided to read about buying things to see if I agreed. Not only did I agree, but they pointed out some things that I had never thought about, like searching for things with mis-spelled words in the title that would not show up in a search. Sure enough under "moboard" rather than "motherboard" I found a dual processor motherboard with no bids that would have gone for thirty - forty bucks if they had spelled out motherboard. There were also lots of boards with the search using the misspelled "motherbord." Sounds like these ladies know what they are talking about. I started listing some items for sale, and while the bids haven't closed yet, so far at least what they said has proved dead on accurate. As for making e-bay into a business, their comments on how to find a continuing source of supply for what you can sell profitably makes good sense, but I'm not there yet. Finally the last part of the book is on the gerneral rules of starting any business such as licensing, accounting, taxes, etc. These are a lot like the same rules for starting any business but are tailored slightly with e-bay in mind. All in all, easily worth the money.
