A Message to my readers...
I can't begin to tell you how lucky I am, writing about eBay and meeting so many of the Community Members. Thank you all, from the bottom of my heart for your support and  comments. I want to keep in touch with you, via the website and my newsletter, but you should know that I do not make any profits from this website, and answer email  messages when I can. I'm a one woman show here; writing, teaching, buying & selling on eBay - with a family to take care of!

 

Please understand that my newsletter makes it out when I can get the time, and you won't be bothered with  pointless emails. Your email addresses will never be shared with anyone. I try to post news here as often as I can, to let you know about news that will affect your dealings on eBay.

eBay University
eBay has once again graciously invited me to teach at eBay University classes around the country. I'll be traveling to about 6 cities this coming year! Hopefully I'll be in a city close to you. Please email me to let me know if you'll be attending an eBay U, so hopefully we can meet. Click here for my instructor profile. As soon as I get the schedule, I will post it here.
