My contact at O'Reilly kindly sent me the book eBay Hacks (David A. Karp) a few weeks ago, and I decided to start reading it this last week. I was motivated as my dad wanted me to attempt to sell a very expensive item on eBay since I've successfully sold there before. By using some of the tips in this book, I was able to spruce up the listing a little more than I usually do, as well as selecting some additional options that seem to have paid off with more traffic than I expected.


As with all Hacks books, it spends some time explaining the basics of the subject (like how to bid). Most of the material is how to best take advantage of the features that are offered. Some of the info is common sense, but some of the info is invaluable (like which add-on listing options are most valuable in generating a better chance at selling).


If you sell on eBay (or if you'd like to get into selling), this is a book you should get. It will save you time and money in a very short time...
