For the first time, guides that focus on a specific eBay category

In the past few years, one radical new technology has leveled the playing field for small businesses to compete with large corporations: eBay has drastically transformed the way people sell products in this global, high-tech world. Now Entrepreneur turns its expert guidance to eBay with new Pocket Guides.

Packed with innovative, practical advice, the new Entrepreneur Pocket Guides on eBay teach you how to stand out from the crowd and make a huge profit in eBay's competitive marketplace. You’ll be privy to insider tips and techniques specific to the hottest categories on the site, including designing listings, setting prices, providing customer service, marketing, financial management, using eBay tools and resources, and more. Plus, exclusive eBay PowerSellers in each category reveal the lucrative strategies that bring them hundreds of thousands of dollars in annual sales.

For years, buying clothing and shoes on eBay was viewed with suspicion: who wants to buy someone else's old apparel without knowing what condition it's in? But the recent proliferation of items with the tags still attached has caused this category to jump up to more than a million and a half items. Tips for where to buy products cheaply and how to sell for a big profit abound in this guide.
