Candlestick Phone Circa 1901

Wednesday, May 9th, 2007

Here’s an old Candlestick Phone I picked up at a yardsell for $3.00.?

Candle Stick Phone?

I normally like to sell items on eBay that I have some experience with. That way, I know what to expect.But, every once in a while I’ll run across something that I’ll take a chance on. Just because it looks like it may be valuable or just fun to sell.

Researching past auctions can really help you out when you have an item that you have never sold before or know little about. A few minutes spent researching can mean the difference between getting a lot of bidding action and a nice high final price for your item or 0 bids and a “sorry — your item didn’t sell” notice from eBay.On the other hand, if you don’t know how to research you can waste a lot of time looking at auctions trying to figure out why one item had 10 bids and sold for $75.00 while the exact same items had 0 bids and didn’t even bring the opening bid of $19.99.

Finally, someone has taken the mystery and drudgery out of researching…

Jenni Hunt has just released a brand new — free — report called, “Duplicating Hot Auction Success!” In this report Jenni reveals the 5 essential parts of a successful auction and she shows you how to dissect hot auctions and quickly figure out what makes them tick so you can apply their success to your own listings.

You can get Jenni’s book from this link:

Not only is it free you don’t even have to enter your email address to get it.Go download it now before Jenni realizes how valuable it is and starts changing for it.

Wow — even I didn’t know these techniques worked that well…

Monday, March 27th, 2006

I just got an email from a reader.? I had to edit it in order to post it here? but here is the gist of it:

James,

When I first got into Ebaying and was trying to find something to sell, I figured out that information was the best? way to go.? I’m not a writer and find it very difficult to put my experiences into words that will sell.? I stumbled across the XXXXXXX thing and started studying and watching the trends and very quickly figured out? that I could buy these items on Ebay and resell them at book prices in a XXXXX XXXXX store.? ? I did $6000 in business over the last 31 days!

Sherry

It? wouldn’t be fair to reveal Sherry’s? niche to the world but I can tell you that there are tons of? opportunities like this on eBay:? Buy low on eBay, Sell high off eBay.? ?

I showed you an example of this in the Arbitrage Report with the first edition book I found on eBay that sold for $16.50 and you can find the exact same book on www.abe.com listed for hundreds of dollars.?

Is this an exciting time to live in or what!

Here’s What’s in the Envelopes!

Monday, March 27th, 2006

We had a lot of guesses about what’s in the envelopes.? Some were very close and some were off in a universe far, far away.? But, no one person got it exactly right.?

Here’s the answer (also see revised image in previous? post):

Envelope #1 — What to buy cheat sheet.? A laminated list of hot items that sell well on eBay.? I’ve designed this so you can carry it around in your pocketbook or purse and have it handy when you happen to come across something that makes you stop and say, “humm, I wonder if that would sell on eBay.”

Envelope #2 — Membership card to the secret Member’s Only website with your user id and password.?

Envelope #3 — Confidential eBay Hotsheets:? ? 12 secret stratagies? I use to push my auctions to the limit, crush the competition, create a tidal wave of traffic to my listings, and maximize my final selling price.

The yellow paper that you see in front of the 3-ring binder are:

#1) Welcome letter, product checklist and where to start guide.?

#2) Four page quick start guide to eBay.? This is for people who are new to eBay, to get them up and running quickly.?
