The 100 Best Things I've Sold on eBay: My Story--by The Queen of Auctions

Rating:
Summary: Something for everyone!
Review: I couldn't put this book down! Not the dry how-to book you might expect, "The 100 Best Things I've Sold on eBay" is a sort of one-person "Antiques Roadshow" with a personal-memoir flavor. Each chapter describes one item, its history, how the author ended up with it (which often involves the author's grandmother, an antiques dealer), and usually a few details about the auction and the buyer. It's all presented in a creative format with lots of pictures. The book's informal, personal tone make for a fun and easy read, but "The 100 Best Things" also packs in a lot of interesting facts about a wide spectrum of antiques and collectibles. Those readers who play the eBay game can also pick up some useful insights into how online auctions work. You don't have to be a eBayer or a collector to enjoy this book--I've loaned it to several friends and it's been a hit with everyone.

Summary: Great book!
Review: I loved reading The 100 Best Things I've Sold on eBay. This book is extremely well laid out and easy to understand. The author gives great examples and the specific details of the items that she sold on e-bay. To me these examples were useful because she shares the amount of money that she paid for the item and not just the amount of money that she made from selling the item. A personal story accompanies each example which gives the book a great touch. After reading this book, I realized that I can make money with my "junk" because the author really proves that your trash can be someone else's treasure.

Review: Interesting and fun read. It helped me get motivated to sell what was junk to me, but valuable to others. Made some quick $$. It is a good investment that has paid off and opened the Ebay world to me. Highly recommend this book! I am giving copies to a few friends for the holidays

Summary: Best Ebay Book Out There!
Review: This book is a must read for anyone who dabbles in Ebay. The book is highly entertaining and extremely informative. I've been a seller on Ebay for four years, and picked up a lot of helpful tips from this book. Lynne tells it the way it is, and she's not afraid to say when she's made mistakes on Ebay (haven't we all?). I've read her book cover to cover three times, and can't wait for the next installment.
