The first step to winning is--find the right item. I'm a collector of Musical Recordings (and some plays). How do you know how to find those hard to find CDs and LPs? Most buyers search the CDs or LPs listings by the name of the item they want. But, there are other ways to seach for great finds. Sometimes sellers list items in the wrong area and that results in an excellent find for buyers who are willing to look in odd places. You would expect to find a great old Broadway musical cast album listed in CDs or Records. I have found wonderful cast albums listed as antiques, collectables, theatre-related, and many other areas. You might say, "Hey, if I just search by the name of the show in all of ebay--I'll find what I want anyway!" Well, that is true if the seller listed the show by the correct name, but what if they listed the album by the composer, lead actor, or the record label? I have found great albums listed in all of those ways. Remember that just because you and I know the proper title--does not mean that the seller knows it. Just because we would list the album under records or CDs--does not mean that the seller will do it that way. Go forth and search for great finds! Lois
