Hi everybody,
I am a newbie both on Ebay and on this forum, and I don't know how u guys are getting into the business, but I decided to do it very methodologically. So I was heading for a private course in a real class. The course was going to cost me 1,500$ and to say the truth- it was 1,500$ more than what I had actually. I was quite frustrated with it, but But than I came across 4 ebay ebooks that seemed to serve as quite a good substitute. So I bought two of them and I have to tell you that from the first look, it seems like one is more rocking than the other!
First one was written by Tom Barnes- a power seller that makes about 1 million$ each year from ebay since 1997. I know that there could be power sellers that do even more than that, but what I like about his book is that he seems to break this massive body of knowledge into very digestible (and delicious) meal, and all in a very organized way from a-z. It cost me 47$ but looks like its worth every cent.
Second book is REALLY mind blowing because it has a list of 500,000 hot products, most of them at reduced costs and ALL delivered in DROP SHIPPING by about 500+ wholesalers! Now I don't know about you guys, but when I think about working on the internet, I strongly fantasize on an a truly HOME BASED business that generates to me an income which is as passive as possible, so for me drop shipping is crucial in this regard. No inventory, no pocket expenses, no hassle of going to get the stuff, packaging it, and than heading off to ship it in the mail. U get the orders and the wholesalers do most of the rest. I paid 47$ for this one as well, but I would have paid even more considering the fact that my "tutoring fees" were reduced from 1,500$ to less than 100 bucks. All is left now for me is to get the wheel spinning and ROCK IT!
I'll try to attach the links for anyone who may be interested to have a look at those books (hope I'll manage cause I'm not very good at this), And I'll be happy to hear comments and other recommendation any of you may have for beginners like me.
The Ebay fortune guide- http://www.auctionslord.com
Drop shipping wholesalers- http://www.dropshippingwholesalers.com
Also if anyone read or know anything about the other two books-
Sky high auctions- http://skyhighauctions.com or Salehoo- http://www.salehoo.com (both by Jimmy Huber), I'll be very happy to hear opinions. I wanted to get them too, but it was a little over my budget.
Thanx and good luck to everyone!

No, I just copy-pasted them from somewhere on the web. Do they have resale rights? If so it could be a good idea..  |

That's good that you just "copy-pasted them from somewhere on the web" - affiliate urls are only allowed in the advertising & announcements category or in your signature.
As these weren't your affiliate urls I've edited the post to remove them.
If your seriously after recommendations, mine is stay away from Drop shipping wholesalers. I think it sucks, and offers poor value for money. Instead, go with SaleHoo if your after this kind of thing. |
