Everything you need to know with regards to syndication collectables on eBay!
By Wylie Ziegler
I’ve purchased assorted books on Amazon.com and while a lot of them were very good, I’ve never felt compelled to write a review. Then I purchased and read “How to Sell Antiques and Collectibles on eBay…And Make a Fortune!” by Lynn Dralle and Dennis Prince. This book is FANTASTIC!!! I had started an eBay business from home a few months before buying the book and was filled with questions…this book answered them all! It covers everything from how to set up your home office to choosing a business name & business plan to how much to spend at Garage Sales, etc. It is filled with aweinspiring tips and tricks (for instance, Lynn gives you a internetsite that helps you tell apart almost any china pattern which is priceless when researching your item to post on ebay).

Not only is the book overwhelmingly thorough, but Ms. Dralle likewise includes her email address just in case you have further questions. You’re in all likelihood marveling if she would genuinely respond to your emails and the answer is, “YES!” I was having a problem with one of my clients and I wasn’t rather sure how to handle it, so after much deliberation I decisive to email Lynn. In less than 24 hours I received a response to my email with a heap of very good counsel which I promptly followed. I may frankly say that her counsel was right on target! It worked perfectly and the client gave me magnificent feedback! So in short, if you are taking into account selling antiques and collectables on eBay, this book is a must-have!!!
