Nutrition and Weight Loss Ideas

Hello — I’m back with more talk about eBay. And I’m also back with another great article by Terry Gibbs. I have a lot of respect for Terry — he is not only a very successful eBayer, but he is also willing and able to provide the guidance so many of us need on our own eBay adventures. Terry teaches people how to run profitable home-based antiques and collectibles businesses, and eBay plays a big role. Terry even wrote a book called the Auction Revolution about his eBay experiences.

Yes. There are a gazillion books out there about how to run an eBay business.

Well, let me assure you, Terry’s book is appropriately named.

It is revolutionary.

When Terry wrote his book, he started out assuming you knew absolutely nothing about eBay at all. The he gradually builds from there. The first 115 pages are all eBay. Everything from setting up an account, to writing your first listing, and getting paid. Even if you’ve been selling on eBay for some time, you will find plenty in this book to make you more successful. There’s no better way to learn than to learn from an expert.

But it is in the second half of the Auction Revolution that Terry really cuts loose. Here’s where you’ll pick up so many advanced techniques — things you may never have thought about.

Here’s one of Terry’s articles to give you an example of what I’m talking about …

Does the newspaper delivery person throw your newspaper into a puddle of water?
Does the grocery store clerk smash your bread into a shopping bag?
Does the fast-food person give you cold fries with your order?
Does the retail clerk chat on her cell phone instead of offering assistance?
Does the repair man make you wait weeks to fix a household problem?
Does the auto mechanic charge you an outrageous price for an oil change?
Does the airline representative shrug their shoulders when your luggage is missing?
Does the eBay seller get annoyed when you ask a question about their auction item?

Does Anyone Care Anymore???

If you’ve experienced any of these unfortunate situations, then you know the frustration that poor customer service creates for a customer.

Unfortunately, good old-fashion customer service is slowly becoming extinct in our day-to-day lives and customers long for the days when they were appreciated for their business.

So, what can a small business owner do?

Another New eBay Scam To Avoid

I saw an eBay auction on Sunday with a new type of scam. The scammers start by using an eBay account with some feedback that they have tricked someone into giving them log in information.

Then they list an auction on eBay with a powerful title and a short description. Here’s a sample description:

"This is the most wanted _______ in the world. I feel sorry because I have to sell it but I really need the money at this time.

If you want to see the picture please CLICK HERE (link) to enter my ebay picture manager."

Some auctions have slightly longer first paragraphs, but they all have the same format. When you click on the link to ebay picture manager you are taken to a page that looks like an eBay login page.

You can quickly tell this is a scam because eBay doesn’t ask you to log in to see pictures, and the URL of the login page is not ebay.com.

This is the first example of Phishing within an eBay auction I have seen. You can be certain these will become more frequent in the future. Remember never log into any page that has a url with anything between the word ebay and com except a period.
