How to Start and Run an eBay Consignment Business

Unfortunately, as with many good thing eBay used to do, they have discontinued their consignment seller program.However, this book still has some good tips, even though a small percentage is now irrelevant.eBay, if they continue down their ragged road to ruin, will be completely irrelevant quite soon. What a shame!More reason for people to jump ship to the now superior Amazon to sell their wares.

This is a great book with tons of info to get you started. It is so easy to read and written well. I was hanging on every word and re-reading it to soak it all up. I actually think there could have been more info. I have not ventured onto his website yet. That might be my answer for the additional info I need. I think he gave you all the basics, his opinion and his experience. And then not to bore people he gives you resources to find more info. The sample forms in the back and great. I would definitely recommend this book.

Had a couple of worthwhile bits of advice, but overall this is a satellite view of running an ebay business, no real specifics about the details of running the business that are difficult to figure out when starting from scratch. The sample agreements were useful but I'm sure I could find equivalent on a google search. Not worth the price.

Although Ebay has blossomed considerably, this is a good general reference for new Ebay entrepenuers. These days, official consignment specifically for Ebay is franchised by Ebay, so you can't just hang your shingle. Some States now have laws governing consignment shops.Nonetheless, I found it helpful in my early online sales days and helped us take on consignment-type sales for friends and family.

Just do it.

Very good guide on what "to do" and "not to do" in starting the eBay consignment business. The author speaks from his own experience which I have found is the best way to learn.Another Great book that stays close by on my shelf for reference

Like many or most who have read this book, I was going through the investigative process of either starting or investing in an eBay consignment business. This book has a lot of useful ideas and is very practical. No eBay consignment business should be without it, as it will pay for itself many times over.

This is a fantastic book! It is a very truthful and open approach to this business. Definitely something to take a look at considering all of us could use some extra income in this new economic market. If you are looking for information about the tools and systems you will need to consider if you are going to think about selling other people's stuff ... this is the book to get.
