This book also aims to help you gain confidence in eBay as a marketplace, teaching you how to weed out questionable buyers and sellers. You'll learn how professionals in the jewelry industry successfully use eBay, discover how to efficiently search by category for the jewelry you want to buy, and find out how to become an eBay PowerSeller.

Customer Reviews & Comments
This book can be interesting even if you have utterly no intention of buying or selling jewelry on eBay. Who would have thought when eBay started up, selling trinkets, that jewelry would rapidly form a multimillion dollar niche? Not a small niche at all. Gordon goes into the practical details for both buyers and sellers. The book's paramount theme seems to be how to avoid getting ripped off. Unsurprising, considering the high valued nature of the items. For professional sellers, detecting fake buyers is vital to staying solvent. Whereas real buyers tend not to do this as a profession. So while a buyer might suffer a loss due to a fake seller, it's not like being put out of business. But, if you follow her guidelines and use some common sense, you should have good chances of a successful transaction.
