Learn How to Buy and Sell on eBay

You can buy just about anything online ... don't believe me? Check out eBay. You'd be amazed at what people are selling. For example: Scientist Purchases New Species on eBay.

According to eBay's website:

"With a presence in 39 markets, including the U.S., and approximately 84 million active users worldwide, eBay has changed the face of Internet commerce. In 2007, the total value of sold items on eBay's trading platforms was nearly $60 billion. This means that eBay users worldwide trade more than $1,900 worth of goods on the site every second."

If you haven't joined the 84 million eBay users yet, consider signing up for the Library's two-part Buying and Selling on eBay class. Due to popular demand we've added a second class on Wednesdays, October 22 and 29 from 6:30-8 pm in the Library Training Room. (The first class, on October 8 and 15, filled up in a few hours!)

I'll be instructing new users in creating an account and becoming comfortable with eBay's site. You'll learn the most effective ways to search for items as well as how to safely make online purchases with your eBay account. We'll also cover the basics of selling on eBay and how to set up a free PayPal account.

I hope to see you there!
