eBay Resource Review
I have read almost every book and package written about eBay. I find this to be a great way to improve my skills.
Unfortunately, a lot of what I read is garbage. Some are pretty good, and a few are truly exceptional. In order to help you decide what is worth your time and money I am putting the reviews here on IWantCollectibles.com.
If there is not a review here, it doesn't necessarily mean it's a bad book. I might not have gotten around to writing a review, or even heard of the book yet. If you are interested in a review of an eBay related product not covered here send me an email.
The items I look at when I write the reviews are:
- Currentness - Is the book current?
- Unique Content - Is the book just a rehashing of other material, or does it explain new ideas.
- Accessibility - Is the book easy to read. Does the writer explain things well?
- Acceptable Techniques - Does the work teach unethical techniques or skirt eBay rules?
- Cost - Does the book deliver value for the cost?
I look at all the above factors when I do the reviews. I might not mention each factor in the review, but I do consider them to get an overall rating.
I have posted some reviews from the past here, and will add more as time permits.
Be sure you read my review of eBay Auction Sniper Programs.
