Back in the 90s I worked in the corporate world in New York City and my wife ran an antique's shop in Millbrook, NY, about an hour north of Manhattan. Millbrook was a very upscale town in the New York horse country. Our regular customers included Mary Tyler Moore, Kevin Bacon, James Earl Jones, Rudi Guilliani (actually his wife - Rudi used to wait in the bar next store) and Martha Stewart (smart lady --but a real pain to deal with) , plus big-time antique dealers from New York City looking for bargains in a small town.

I worked with my wife on the weekends and we used to enjoy going to flea markets, small country auctions and trips to small towns on the weekends looking for our antique finds.

In 1995 disaster struck. The advertising agency I worked for lost our largest account, BMW. Even though I didn't work on the BMW account (I worked on RCA and Compaq Computer) I was let go in the inevitable round of layoffs.

I lost my big-time VP corporate job with the corner office, the unlimited expense accounts and the private car service that took me back and forth to work. It was a real awakening!

After struggling to survive for a while, we finally decided to move back to the West Coast where we had started out as a family. We could no longer afford to move back to the SF Bay area, housing prices had risen to the stratosphere. Our old house in California, that we had sold for $210,000, was now going for over $700,000. So, we looked north to Seattle. Even Seattle was too expensive. Finally we settled on a small island about an hour north of Seattle.

I struggled with various jobs until one day I discovered eBay. My teenage son had been buying and selling comic books on the eBay and he couldn't stop talking about it. We still had boxes and boxes of small antiques and collectibles we had kept when we closed up the shop. So we started selling them on eBay. Amazingly --they sold for more on eBay than we used to get in the shop --I was hooked !!!

I was a power seller within a few months and seven years later we are still going strong. We don't sell that many antiques and collectibles any more --we have moved on to other things, but we did it for years and made a very good living.

So many people asked me for advice, I decided to write it down. The result was Selling Art, Antiques and Collectibles on eBay.

SELLING ART, ANTIQUES & COLLECTIBLES ON EBAY , is a straight-forward "how-to" manual designed to get you started selling on eBay.

It is NOT one of those stupid get-rich-quick e-Books.

This is a pretty basic guide. It is not an advanced selling manual such as The Complete eBay Marketing System. This book also assumes that you already know something about art, antiques or collectibles. If you don't --then this book is not for you.

Antiques and collectibles pose unique challenges to the auction seller. You not only have to know what you are selling, but how you sell them is essential to your success whether you are trying to sell part-time or eventually want to build an eBay business.

Over 12 million items are listed on eBay every day! Some of them sell at a profit, some sell at a loss --and many never sell at all!

The techniques necessary to successfully sell on eBay are not trade secrets or difficult to learn. You will, however, need to apply them to be successful. Once again -- this is not an advanced business manual. It is fairly basic --designed to be used by a novice who wants to be taken step-by-step though the process in a logical and simple to understand way. If you are looking for an advanced course, please read about The Complete eBay Marketing System.

We have sold over 15,000 copies of our various books and manuals on eBay and our web site. SELLING ART, ANTIQUES & COLLECTIBLES ON EBAY is a straight-forward training manual --written by an eBay power seller.

It is organized and designed to get you started selling and making a profit on eBay. We not only cover the "mechanics" of getting started on eBay, but we also introduce you to the marketing and sales skills needed to succeed.
