Reader Reviews
When I decided to tell a set of CDs on eBay, I read this book first before I tried my first auction. I have bought a lot of items on eBay, but this was my first time as a seller. I am well satisfied with the book. Sure, there are tons of info products out there talking about selling on eBay from the US standpoint. For Canadians, its similar, but not identical. We deal with a different postal service, different currency, different border regulations, customs and taxes than do our neighbors to the south. This book was a good help and I'm glad I found it. eBay has changed a few minor regulations since the book was published, but that is almost inevitable with a print publication. If you're new to selling on Ebay, and you are situated in Canada, this is a good resource to have.
