Summary: Informative and Useful
Review: Secrets of eBay is like a text book on doing business on eBay, except it is also a pretty impressive read. The author gives advice on how to build a business on eBay while backing his advice with real life examples of instances where eBay sellers succeeded using the same ideas.
The fact that real life examples are given also helps because it enables you to visualize how you can apply those ideas to your own eBay sales.

Summary: Inside Information
Review: The thought that kept coming up to mind was insider information. When you read Secrets of eBay I think you will realize that it really reads like an inside information publication that could have been published by eBay for their top sellers.
Or maybe a top seller wrote this book and intended to use it to teach an advanced course on selling on eBay.Either way, I kept on getting the feeling while reading this book that it was intended to be for sellers who wanted to know a new set of more advanced strategies that they could use to further expand their ebay business. Great book for those of us who think we already know everything about selling on eBay.

Summary: Good Content that needs an editor
Review: The three stars are for the content. I haven't finished reading the book and at the end, I may give it 5 stars for content. I'm new to selling on eBay so I have yet to see how the application of Lowy's strategies plays out for me. I suspect that he is giving me good, sound advice and I know I'm getting lots of exciting ideas from reading what he has to say. But the way he says it! I have to say -- and I'm sorry to say it -- that this is the most poorly written book I have ever laid eyes on. There are so many grammatical errors, misspelled words, incomplete sentences, poorly organized thoughts that I find it hard to believe this book found a publisher. Obviously, there was not an editor involved. If I try to imagine that someone recorded what Mr. Lowy had to say and just transcribed it verbatim , it becomes slightly more tolerable. I have to think though, given the sad state of the writing here, that some of these "reviewers" have a very close relationship with Mr. Lowy. I'd like to auction MY editing skills to this guy! That's an idea I got from his chapter on auctioning services. Now that's a terrific idea that makes slogging through the prose worthwhile!

Summary: Enjoyed every page
Review: While reading books on eBay it is very easy to either get lost over the technical terms or simply be given information without the extra advice on how to use that information. In Secrets of eBay you are given the information in a very friendly and easy to read format which makes it a great read, and also enables the information to be better understood.
Since it's clear that the information is based on someone who has actively sold on eBay, it also helps to have the extra advice throughout the book on how to use that information in your eBay auctions.
I give this book five stars and definitely recommend it to everyone.

Summary: Inside Information
Review: You can read this at the iuniverse.com website. I did, and couldn't believe how useless the information was. After all the great reviews, I thought it would be at least decent. If you notice though, most of the other reviews are by "a reader". Just a hunch, could the reviews be doctored? Anyway, I went through about 8 chapters before I just couldn't read it anymore. It drones on and on basically saying buy your socks wholesale and sell them for a profit.
