Customer Reviews

Absolute Beginner's Guide To Ebay
Whether you are new to eBay or just looking to sharpen up your skills, Absolute Beginner's Guide to eBay is a pretty good bet. This book includes full instructions on how to set up an eBay account and getting started buying or selling merchandise. It also explains special features such as product reviews, eBay stores, [...], and eBay Express.

I've been using eBay for a few years now but I still learned a few new tricks from this guide. To me, the most useful portions of the book were the sections that gave tips on searching eBay and bid strategies. I also learned the ins and outs of Dutch Auctions, selling more than one item at a time.

EXCELLENT!
This book is even better than expected! Product was well-packaged and shipped immediately. Recommend this seller and product highly

eBay Introduction
Reference: Fourth Edition

As an introduction to eBay, I found this book to be most helpful to a first time user of eBay. The index section added to the value of the text. The "special elements" such as "Note" and "Caution" were a nice bonus.
