From Booklist
Holden is an eBay pioneer, having joined the service back in 1997--ancient history in Internet time--and he has seen the site go through many changes. Increased fees, intense policing by site watchdogs, and complicated policies can make listing on eBay a landmine for inexperienced sellers. This stripped-down handbook provides answers to the questions that sellers new to eBay ask, starting with the biggest one of all: "What should I sell on eBay?" Although there is no definitive answer to that question, Holden provides tips on choosing a product that is right for you, and he offers suggestions on how to contact wholesalers, falling short of giving out any wholesale sources. He covers all the basics, like creating attractive listings, answering customer inquiries, dealing with the complexities of shipping internationally, and handling complaints and returns. Seasoned PowerSellers will appreciate his tips on purchasing keywords, working with an auction service provider, and migrating to one's own Web site. Although 1,000 tips is a lot for one sitting, this will make a decent addition to your eBay reference library. David Siegfried
