    Ebay VS Amazon

    I don't do online classes, because the most important parts of selling through Amazon FBA require and over-the-shoulder approach in assisting someone. If you do need help though, look up my name on Facebook - or feel free to ask questions here.

    Is there a way to avoid entering SSN during paypal business account sign up?

    Nope, you need a SSN now. A EIN used to work just fine, but not anymore. Even for my LLC, I had to provide a SSN. PayPal wants to know who to come after when the account become negative.

In a perfect world, their...

    Nice Lamborghini Quote

    Actually you do, marketing isn't as direct for any luxury items because to go to someone and say "Buy this toaster, its super fancy" isn't as strong as saying "You know Mr. Jones, the guy that makes $400,000 a year? He owns that kind of toaster" I just saw the new corvette being advertised in...

    Nice Lamborghini Quote

    It's because less than 2% of the U.S. population could obtain one, which wouldn't lead to a very profitable conversion rate for the advertising company, this wouldn't be worth investing in advertising by Lamborghini due to its low ROI oppurtunity - in that 2% the ones that are interested in...

    Ebay VS Amazon

    I pretty much had to stop teaching classes on eBay because the DSR was destroying sellers and my classes went from "How to sell on eBay" to "How to Survive on eBay" - My Amazon FBA courses are nothing like that and you can see growth in peoples businesses. On eBay, you're just a little flea...

    In a wierd situation with eBay. Could someone help?

    Sometimes you can fax them a blank piece of paper and e-mail them and say "Hey, I faxed you my invoice" and that's all that it takes. Sometimes they actually want to look at your your invoice but they are usually checking for an authorized distributor for that item and someone they can contact...

    Lost TRS , sales goes DOWN, going bunkrupt

    First off, what the hell are you selling? At that kind of difference, eBay must be promoting the hell out of your listings. Buy a bunch of stuff from Chinese/HK eBay sellers, resell locally for no profit - just break even - or hell, sell it for below the cost the Chinese/HK seller is selling it...

    Chinese Sellers on eBay Selling Steam Keys and Vouchers. How?

    Most of them are stolen. A person with a stolen credit card or paypal account will go on eBay and buy game card codes from other sellers, and then resell them the next day. Then the original seller loses money because they were purchased with a stolen credit card or paypal account which has to...

    Revenge vs Forgiveness

    While I will not say I find forgiveness as a sign of weakness, if you tread on me, do not expect me to forgive you.

    Your biggest problem is going to be finding someone that can responsibly separate the accounts while listings items.

    Getting Customers to Leave Positive Feedback. What do you guys do?

    You don't do anything. If someone hasn't left you feedback, just consider that a good thing. On Amazon for example, you might be lucky if just 2% of your customers leave feedback. The eBay DSR and feedback system is already seriously flawed because eBay doesn't educate buyers on the...
