 Absolute Beginner's Guide To Ebay June 17, 2008
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! July 15, 2007
This book is even better than expected! Product was well-packaged and shipped immediately. Recommend this seller and product highly

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.
Great reading for beginners . February 21, 2007

I have a few books on ebay and this one is the easiest most user friendly book i have encountered. Love the cartoons and the bit of tongue-in-cheek fun along the way. It is well organized and actually fun to read.
