Reader review(s):

Excellent--a must for anyone who bids or sells., November 26, 2000
I'm not high-volume seller, but I run two dozen or so auctions per month on ebay and Amazon. This book is absolutely indispensable! It covers general info about auctions, how to handle problem customers, reviews of auction management software (this alone has made my business 100% better), pros and cons of the various sites, shipping methods, and pretty much everything else you needed to know. Whether you're a buyer or a seller, you need this book!

Excellent book to help you sell, July 7, 2001
Like the other reviewer, I'm not a high-volume Ebay seller but I do run some auctions every month. This book covered a great deal of what I wanted to know about how to run my auctions and make them more profitable. It has a wealth of information on alternate auctions sites too.

Highly recommended for anyone who wants to get going on eBay.

Should have had a yellow jacket, and read "for dumbies"., February 1, 2002
This book was very weak in content. It provides few noteworthy pointers. It is basically a common sense walk-through, of how to view an auction business. If you aren't a complete idiot, you probably have no use for this book.

Like An Inexpensive Crash Course On Online Auctions, November 1, 2001
When I finished reading this book, I felt like an "auction expert"... even though I've never bid or sold items on an online auction before. It seems to have many good tips only experience can teach you. I felt I learned all I needed in this book to get a good start. It appears there are no loose ends or anything left out. Very complete with urls to web resources such as appraisers, automation and tracking software to making selling at auctions a business.
