In order to make money you need to spend money--$5 to be precise, an investment you're likely to earn back in spades on your first eBay auction if you follow the advice in this pocket-sized guide! By focusing on just the most common tasks you're likely to perform, this tight, bright, four-color guide serves as a super quick reference to using eBay safely, securely, and (most importantly) profitably! In less than 50 pages, eBay veteran and digital technology whiz Stephen Gregory covers all the eBay essentials: making safe purchases, setting yourself up as a seller, writing effective product descriptions, creating and posting persuasive product photos, ensuring transaction security, and making sure your customers are happy. Each page features a full-page visual (either a photograph or a software screen shot), step-by-step instructions, and perhaps a warning or tip at the bottom of the page-nothing extraneous, nothing more than you actually want to know!
