Default Finding models of success on eBay....

Hi Mitch,

One thing you can do is look through eBay's auctions yourself. Look at what gets bids and what doesn't.... And when you see a "PowerSeller" - add them to your Favorites or Bookmarks. They clearly are doing something right....

For example, if I wanted to sell baseball cards, I'd do this.... I'd type "baseball card" into eBay, and browse the listings....

If I found a "PowerSeller" selling baseball cards, then I'd study his or her auctions. What does he or she do which helps to make his/her auctions successful?

I might even buy a baseball card from him or her, just to get the "full experience". Once you know how a successful eBayer runs their auctions, you know about half of their business.... The other half is their sources, which is more tricky!

By the way, we have covered these kind of eBay-based businesses in The Great Ideas Letter, where we uncover the sources too.... It is finding the sources which is often the more difficult part. When we can find this out, too, we reveal it in The Great Ideas Letter.

I hope your auctions go well, Mitch.... Don't delay, jump in and start doing it, and learn as you go.... :)

- Dien
