(Hide Review...)  A great resource for starting an ebay business
Reviewer Permalink
I've heard of people making money off of ebay, but have been intimidated by the shipping and how to sell things. This book was a great introduction to the world of selling on eBay. The author does not pressure you or lure you in with promises of get-rich-quick schemes, but rather gives an honest representation of how to get started (slowly) and the things that have worked for her. Given that she's sold over 12,000 items and makes $2,500 a month in profit as a stay-at-home mom, I say that her advice is worth listening to.

(Hide Review...)  disapointment
Reviewer Permalink
I researched several books before buying this one, looking for a good guide to get me started at my stay at home job, selling on ebay while mothering my children. I thought this book would be perfect, but it was pretty disapointing. It is more like a pamplet- I read cover to cover in less than half an hour, and not sure if I really gained any valuable info. Perhaps it is better for a very much beginner that has no clue on obvious general marketing & business etiquette. Maybe I can resell this book on ebay. :0)

(Hide Review...)  An invaluable resource for anyone starting there own ebay business!
Reviewer Permalink
I recommend this book to anyone either starting an ebay business or wanting to improve the one they have. Suzanne gives you all the information that you need to get started. She gives you ideas as to what to sell, time saving short cuts, and how to fit in your busy schedule as a mom. In her book you will also find tips for setting up your store, taking pictures of your goods, listing, marketing, shipping and handling feedback. The "Stay-At-Home Mom's Guide to successful eBay Selling" is worth the read!

(Hide Review...)  Beginning eBayers Look No Further!
Reviewer Permalink
Like many of you reading this, I've only recently begun selling on eBay as an actual business. For me, this book has provided valuable insight into how to shape and build my business in order to position myself for maximum profit. Easy to read, honest and straightforward, in reading this guide I was able to discover the answers to many of my questions such as finding products to sell, how to avoid and even handle negative feedback and how to save money on certain eBay fees. I was particularly inspired by the section on international selling. I've been a little hesitant in doing so, but I feel empowered to now offer international auctions through eBay as this guide has shared insight into how the process works and what a useful tool it can be in building my business.

Besides covering all of the basics in an easy to read format (and offering very sound marketing ideas), perhaps the best part of this book is the sharing of helpful links, money saving tips and useful resources available outside of the book. Susan Arant-Wells has done more than share the basic "how-to's" of the eBay business, but has also been so gracious as to provide the "where-to's" of where her readers can find even more powerful information, supplies and business tools to support their businesses.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who is considering an eBay business or for anyone who is already in the beginning stages of an eBay business, but ready to expand their efforts and step into their next level of selling success. After reading this book, I'm even more excited about the almost limitless possibilities of an eBay business and I trust all of you will be equally inspired as well!

Reviewer Permalink
Suzanne has compiled an easy-to-read, concise guide to selling on eBay. The book is geared towards Stay-at-Home Moms, but the information applies to everyone including eBay newbies and those intermediate sellers wishing to achieve PowerSeller status.

(Hide Review...)  Great information!
Reviewer Permalink
I've been on eBay for years, but only recently started selling on eBay. In the past few months, I've made some mistakes and learned the hard way. Oh, how I wish I would have read this BEFORE I started selling! Great information on everything without bogging you down with too much technical information. Even though I thought I had it figured out, the author has opened my eyes to even more possibilities! It's an easy read, with great links to her podcast, and website, along with other great online resources.

She covers everything from where to get what you sell, pricing, shipping, and even the scary stuff like international shipping and how to deal with difficult buyers. Even more advanced things like cross promoting and marketing.

It's a great reassurance to see a mom like me who's making it on eBay.

(Hide Review...)  An Absolute Must Read for Anyone Starting to Sell on eBay & looking for a Supplemental Source of Income!
Reviewer Permalink
This is an excellent book for anyone looking to seriously start selling on eBay as a supplemental source of income. I highly recommend it. I'm a WAHG (Gram), and was looking to start an eBay business as a future retirement option. Suzanne Wells speaks to her reader from personal experience as a successful Mompreneur Business Woman, Power Seller and eBay authority, providing all the information that anyone needs to get started ~ from sourcing inventory ~ customer service ~ shipping ~ International Shipping ~ & building a customer base ~ it's all here. I've applied all her recommendations and followed the links to excellent reference sources, and am happy to say that in less than one year, I've become a Power Seller myself. I feel I am well on may way to achieving my goal of being able to Work-from-Home. I've also acquired Suzanne's other books, following her tips & techniques, and have since gone on to network and create a Blog.

Kudos ~ Well Written
