Reviewer: Jack D. Herrington "engineer and author" (Silicon Valley, CA) sez:
"This is a tightly written 250 page book that covers the basics of buying and selling on eBay. The style is very practical with real world advice and stories. Screenshots are used very well. This isn't one of those 500 page bible tomes that covers every single aspect.
You can compare this book with O'Reilly's "EBay: The Missing Manual". This one comes out smaller and more focus. While the O'Reilly book comes out as more thorough and comprehensive. Both are good. It's just a question of how import eBay is to you. If it's something you do now and then and you just want to do it better, this is likely the book for you.
