 Somebody really messed up!
I ordered five new E-bay books. I received five books however only three were what I ordered. I am so turned off on Amazon.

eBay Quick Steps
br /A book review by Frank Dobrowolski
br /May 12, 2005
br /
br /by Carole Matthews John Cronan
br /Published by McGraw-Hill/Osborne
br /ISBN 0-07-225506-4 2004 240 pages
br /List price: $16.99 On Amazon: $11.55 +S/H
br /
br /This is a short book, with wide margins and many vivid color illustrations and tables. As a result it is a quick read - per its title. It has a simple, direct approach which works well for eBay beginners and novices. It also contains some information that likely would help advanced users.
br /
br /I like the illustrated, annotated Walk through of an eBay Transaction
br /1. Prospective seller registers to sell an item on eBay
br /2. Takes photos of object to sell and writes a description of it
br /3. Enters the description, photos, payment terms, shipping information, and other supporting material into eBay's auction selling form
br /4. Track the item as buyers start bidding on it
br /5. The buyer registers to participate in the auction
br /6. Buyer finds the item and bids on it
br /7. Buyer wins the auction and connects with seller to verify the details and the buyer pays the seller
br /8. Seller sends the package per the shipping terms specified
br /9. Buyer receives the item
br /10. Buyer and Seller provide feedback about each other in this transaction.
br /
br /The Find Your Way around eBay chapter begins with a page-filling illustration that is typical of this book. The eBay home page is shown and eight areas are picked with a comment on each. The chapter continues with more large figures and sidebar "Tips" and "notes".
br /
br /One page is filled with a table that lists the type of auction, gives a description and notes requirements. For example:
br /* Auction - Buy It Now [Fixed Price]
br /* Description - Offers the item for a given price and there is no auction
br /* Requirement - Seller must have a feedback rating of at least 30 and be a registered user for at least 14 days of be ID Verified.
br /
br /The guidance on ID Verified contains 11 steps and one figure, one Note and one Tip.
br /
br /The following chapters are similarly presented in easy to follow text with numerous colorful illustration, tables and sidebars. Chapter 9 presents information I have not seen this in other books on eBay and it is done well here. The Chapter
br /has sections entitled
br /* Detect and Report Account theft
br /* Use Buyer Fraud-Protection Measures
br /* File a Fraud Alert
br /* Set up a Bidder Alert
br /* Block Bidders or Buyers
br /* Report Unwelcome Buyers
br /* Use Additional Resources
br /a. Security Center
br /b. Law Enforcement Other Resources
br /
br /This may be the best book on eBay I have seen for beginners and novices in using eBay. Advanced users probably would find some information that they could use.
