Enjoyable, Educational and Pretty Dang Entertaining

This book is not a dry read! It's pretty engaging. I had never considered the psychology of the auctioner/auctionee - and this guy has captured the online (and live, in-person) auction dynamic and describes it pretty thoroughly (the CD software's nice, too: there are a couple CGI scipts you can use that are documented nicely, along with some .exe's that look fairly easy to cope with). Good insight into the pitfalls that the auction newbie (me) should beware of (what kind of payments to take, make sure service is plenty dang fast, follow up on questions, deal with reputable people, be prompt with payment when buying, etc.) and again, the writer covers not just online auctioning but the live kind. Fascinating. A good read, the kind you can pick up and get something new from each time.
