5 out of 5 stars Everything you need to know in one slick package   April 30, 2002
48 out of 51 found this review helpful

What an awesome book!! Marsha's book helped me take my eBay business around the corner, turning it from a fun hobby into a serious money-making machine. I love her insights and stories, as well as helpful tips. Just finding out about her recommended auction software and the shipping folks at ShipperTools.com was worth far more than the price of the book. This title is destined for a LOT of underlining and constant reference in my library. Thank you, Marsha!!!!!!!!!!!


5 out of 5 stars A Remarkable Business Opportunity   December 6, 2001

Marsha Collier's "Starting An Ebay Business For Dummies" is your golden gateway to self-relience in a fun business of your own. How about opening a store in a mall with 30,000,000 visitors daily? What would you pay for this opportunity? Marsha shows not only how to open the store, but how and what merchandise to stock, how to manage accounting, advertising, how to get the best site (location), how to price your merchandise, and how to display your wares. I was amazed at the depth of information about what is required to take and post photos and simple explaination about the best methods of being paid.

This is a Dummie book , but only for Dummies who are smart like a fox. Sure it is written with cartoons, tips (with targets and arrows), reminders, warnings (with cutsie bombs), and ancedotes so it's fun and understandable for "the rest of us". Marsha put her years of success making a living on Ebay into this book. It is simple enough for a beginner to follow, but with tips and ideas a computer guru will appreciate.

(...) Marsha, has shown the least expensive with the greatest upside potential of any business I've seen. Start it as a hobby, build it into a business, but do it right with "Starting An Ebay Business For Dummies" This book has my very HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION.

Having been an eBay buyer for some time, I found myself wanting to learn how I can make money using eBay. I came across this book and literally engulfed myself into the details...page by page. Not long after, I was selling items on eBay and doing very well.

This is a very comprehensive book for folks who want to start a business using eBay. I would highly recommend this book.
