Reader Reviews"eBay income," by Cheryl Russell is unique among the hundreds of books on the subject, in that it takes the reader on a step by step journey through the process of learning how to sell on eBay, without overloading them with difficult to understand language that is so prevalent in other books on eBay selling. The author manages to cover every imaginable aspect of selling on eBay and does so in a manner that actually makes the learning process fun. Russell also deserves kudos for writing a book about selling on eBay, without having any kind of hidden agenda, such as leading the reader to purchase additional books or enrolling in expensive seminars. I mention this, because I have read several books on the same subject matter and it seems that all too often, the authors main interest is in selling additional materials, such as seminars that cost thousands of dollars. Such is not the case with Cheryl Russell. She writes in a very straightforward style that is very easy to follow and understand. The book contains vital information for both the newcomer and the experienced eBay seller alike. There are so many books published on how to become a successful eBay seller, with new ones being issued on a near daily basis. It is a pleasure to finally discover one that is heads and shoulders above the rest of the ones that I've read. This is not to say that "eBay income," is the only good book on the subject, but I can say that in my case it is the best book about eBay selling that I have read to date. It will certainly prove to be an excellent reference source for my eBay business and since each chapter contains a summary checklist at the end, it makes for a simple job of finding exactly what topic you may be looking for. This is definitely a 5+++ book on the Amazon rating scale and one that every eBay seller would benefit by having in their library of books on the subject.
