    Do you need basic stuff like what to click, or tips and tricks and fine-tuning?

    I saw a similar book to this in our bookclub at work. It looked really good!

    best thing to remember with ebay is that its a market, be as honest as posible, even if your try alittle to oversell ;).
    and remember there are always people trying to rip you off so use all the precautions you can and no matter what dont accept something that seems to good to be true

    Good Luck :)

    Good luck it is easy as pie,my one piece of advice is never and I mean never respond to emails in your own email address, the only ebay ones that are real are in your "my messages " on ebay. Don't forget you can get a shop for a month for FREE
