Selling on the eBay market
By Vera M. Chan-Pool
Editor
With thousands of workers throughout the country losing their jobs due to the ever-declining economy, more and more will undoubtedly turn to the Internet to not only look for jobs but also to sell items for quick cash.
And, according to one eBay-certified business consultant and education specialist, it can be done - and done well.
"You can absolutely make a living on [eBay]," said Everett-based Cindy Shebley, one of the first 10 eBay-certified business consultants worldwide. "It's like having any other small business."
"I
started listing Airsoft Guns and Sales are bigger than I have ever
seen!!! This really took off because of you talking to be about bundling
product. I have offered Airsoft for over 14 months now with maybe
a sale every 8 weeks. I am no longer dropshipping these and now
having to order in 250 guns at a time. This is all thanks to you!
I am so close to being able to give up my day job it isn't
funny..."

"Hi Cindy,
I am so glad I ran across you. You are teaching me more with your free little tips here, than anyone else that I have paid big bucks has ever taught me. Some of the supposedly eBay experts just make you think they have something that you can't live without, and that will teach you everything you need to know about selling on eBay, but when you get it -what a disappointment. More often than not, it is an overview of things you can get right off eBay in their help area, and then they use most of their space trying to sell you something else that belongs to them, or one of their Guru buddies.
When you say you are going to teach me something, you do. Step by step, and that is the way I need it taught to me. You are not only talking about how to do it, you are at the same time showing screen shots of how to do it.
You are great and I just wanted you to know how much I appreciate your help."

I want to take the time out of our busy weekend
and thank you! You have done such a great job teaching us the
ins and outs of eBay selling.
I am currently enrolled in The Art Institute of
Pittburgh Online program for Advertising (Marketing emphasis).
:) You have supplied me with tools I can come to the class
with in a lot of my Web Marketing courses. What you are
teaching is definately on par with my program. Thank you for
your dedication and hardwork (I know it is).
