In my journey as a ebay seller, I have found many things that are helpful. One great resource I use nearly daily is the Ebay coach's VIP Library and the Ebay Coach's Forum.

Suzanne Wells is the author of the Stay at Home Mom's Guide to Successful Ebay selling.
I have read this ebook and and currently using her resources at the VIP Library as well. Through her and her free forum, I often post questions and get advice from many other experienced ebay sellers. I can also post advice on what I have learned so far to other sellers.

Please click on the links to the right to learn more.

While I am not making a living off of ebay currently, I am paying making a few hundred dollars a month. About as much as I do substitute teaching, and I don't have to pay for childcare. Currently my inventory is also free since I am literally selling junk from around the house and that others have given me. If I have a question about how to improve my photos, make my listings look nicer, or about international shipping these are the resources I use. I highly recommend them!
