Default Ebay Books

Are there any good books on ebay that would help someone that is just getting started in selling on the site? Thanks.

I tried to find out the best result for this question from other members but couldn't get the perfect response. I checked out certain videos online through YouTube which are helpful but to certain extent itself. I am not sure of any books but would follow this thread to know the books.

There are loads of sellers on eBay advertising their own books and eBooks for sale, promising the world. I think your best bet for learning about eBay is their own Community section though.

EBay for Dummies is pretty good--it gives you a nice, basic outline of how things work. I'm also fond of The Official eBay Bible by Jim Griffith. A word of caution about books, though. Often their information is out of date, even if you get the newest edition. My experience is that eBay makes minor--and sometimes major--changes and adjustments frequently.

You can learn all you need to know by reading, and asking questions on the eBay Community discussion forums, as has been mentioned above.

Also just plain experience with listing and selling will teach you alot.
There are tutorials on the eBay site which takes you step by step through the selling process, it is quite simple really, after you have done a sale or 2.


Good Luck

Thanks you guys for the information. I will check these out. I do love the "Dummie" books because they break it down in laymans terms. At least the ones that I have seen. Thanks again.

I need to check out the eBay for Dummies, I heard of it many a times but wasn't sure how good it would be.
