Just got the book "The Official Ebay Bible" today by Jim "Griff" Griffith...Thanks Griff!!! What a fantastic book!!! So glad I found it...or should I say, it found me!!! ;0) This book is FILLED with sooooo much valuable, helpful information!!! Not to mention Griff, your introduction to ebay was similar to my situation, so reading your personal story and the experiences of other ebay users in your book, adds a nice, warm touch indeed! Like the community on ebay I've met so far! For me being NEW to ebay, I've been trying to get a better understanding of what ebay's about without making too many mistakes! Up until now, I've been joining groups & trying to read the discussion boards which can be a little overwhelming to someone who's new to this ebay internet world...but I'm having fun learning! I'm finding that reading this book is a nice step away from my computer without stepping away from ebay...if that makes any sense! As a NEW buyer & as a NEW seller on ebay, What else do I have to say about this book... GREAT WRITING!!! I find this book to be an easy read...and when I say easy, I mean the book is fatter than "Gone With The Wind", and when I saw it, I must admit, I was a little intimidated by the appearance...only 744 pages...but like the saying says "Never judge a book by it's cover!" This book is not intimidating at all. On the contrary, It's a breath of fresh air, having the answers right in front of me to many of my questions and being able to have a reference, in hand, to turn to right away is reassuring. I'm actually getting through the book rather quickly which is not surprising...I can't seem to put this book down! I especially LOVE "Griffs Tips" & the personal stories that's shared throughout the book. When I decided to start selling on ebay, I was at a BIG turning point in my life. I had all these skills that I wanted to utilize from years of experience working in customer service and being an artist. I'm another one of those stories Griff that you can add to your next book, ebay has changed my life too! Nerdy Bird
