I was just responding to an ebay discussion and noticed all the ebay selling kits. Clicked on a few and wondered does this really work, some where scary looking, one I might think about looking into. How about it anyone ever invest in any of these.

Most anything you need to know about selling on Ebay is found on Ebay and does not cost anything. The Community is there with groups and they can be ever so helpful. They even support each other in selling. In my estimation it is a money maker for someone. Take some time and go on Ebay and find what you need to know there. Good luck!!

I sent off for that one (just pay shipping). It didn't help much. Mainly gives you a list of dropshippers that want you to pay for access to their service. Not something I would recommend before you're ready to become a power seller.
I have actually purchased another package that was much more informative since it contained several useful ebooks on ebay as well as interviews from some folks that have done well. For the package price I got all the ebooks, software, and stuff to make your own website (Do-able but not as easy as it sounds). While I found the ebooks useful & have used alot of the software myself, I have yet to sell one. :D

eBay teaches you all you need to know about buying and selling on the site and the members in the forums are very helpful. If you are a book person like me, check your local library, there you will find tons of reading material regarding eBay and other auction sites. Good luck eBaying!

The easisest way to learn how to sell on eBay is to go to your local library and get a book about it. Take it home, take your time and read it.
Then, go to eBay and read what they have to say, since there may have been a couple of changes since the book was printed.
Now, list a couple of things you want to get rid of and see how it goes. If you enjoy the process, you may want to sell more; then you can start looking at wholesalers and dropshippers. If selling on eBay is not for you; you didn't lose anything learning about how it all works.
That is how I started selling on eBay and I decided it wasn't something I wanted to do a lot of. I sell some of my old stuff before Christmas to make a little extra money for the holidays and I also sell when I need to make room for more stuff. Right now I am selling a bunch of my books so I will have room for more; plus a little extra money to spend on more books.

Most of these are little more than a waste of money. All you need to know about eBay can be found on the eBay site and if you go to the eBay community boards, there are loads of people there who can answer any questions you might have. Personally I wouldn't bother bidding on these selling kits at all,
