The eBay Price Guide Lives Next To My Computer

I used to go online and spend time searching closed auctions on eBay to get an idea of prices --now I just pick up Julia's book. As an eBay trading assistant, I also use it to show consignors the expected value of an item. It is also a handy guide to eBay categories. I can look them up in the table of contents instead of paging through the eBay files trying to figure out where to put something. As a buyer it helps me figure out the best place to put my bid. Whether you are a buyer or a seller you will find this book valuable.
