eBay books, electronic vs paper

Hi Folks

What do people think about the number of different books available on the subject of eBay?

Is it best to buy an online book and subscribe to a weekly ezine, or buy a book from a bookshop which might already be out of date?

    I think you can learn everything from message boards & ebay's help pages. I work in a library and I have flicked through every book we have. I don't think I've really ever learnt anything from one that I couldn't learn for free.

    The majority of ebooks for sale on ebay regarding how to "make it on ebay" are usually written by and intended for the americans. I have read a couple of useful "proper" books specifically aimed at the UK user: "Make Money on Ebay UK" by Dan Wilson, and "The ebay Book" by David Belbin. They're for sale on Amazon...and probably on ebay too! I found them very useful.
