Default Who bought the "Ebay Stealth" book and what did you think of it?

(I bought it yesterday, and my evaluation of it is below...)

I have always been afraid of anything "ebook" assuming that it's a scam or marketing thing... or that they are worthless instruments like recipies, pictures, or paperclips used in penny auctions for feedback.

But after years of trial-and-error of Ebay accounts (and I've learned, lost, and listed an incredible amount over the years) I consider myself having a master's degree in Ebay BS, and bought the book just to see if there are any little tricks I might have overlooked. (When you spend an average cost/waste of $5 everytime you buy a prepaid card, or $35/6mo for a PO Box (or $100 for the year as some PO's have a minimum, which I just paid) then $30something for a comprehensive list of "tricks" is nothing.

Let me say if you're thinking about buying an Ebay account or starting a second one or are going to make a few to set aside for a "rainy day" then don't even bother until you've read the "eBay Stealth" book. It's almost 50 pages, very well done, and not at all the same thing as the ebooks in Ebay penny auctions. There are no sales add-ons like 200 pages of "wholesale sources" at the end, etc.......

I've seen the ads in my Google searches for the longest of time, but assumed there were so many versions that people bought and sold again so I never bothered. I bought it on a whim 2 days ago (after becoming a member of this site) and HIGHLY recommend it, as there were several things that even I didnt know.

It reads like a ".... for Dummies" book in the way that if you dont understand something all you have to do is go back and read it slowly and you will get it.

100% NOT clipped and pasted from somewhere else, 100% professional and there are no hidden aggendas for offering it (like other links and downloads inside the book for other products). SOLID info, well organized and I learned a lot from it, even with my years of experience.

The only down sides that I can think of was that 1) you can't pay for it with Paypal (which I wouldn't anyways, obvious reasons) so you have to have a credit card handy and 2) if it would have said $37 next to the ad I would have bought it a long time ago, at least out of curiosity. Anyone who's either bought an established account or bought a ton of junk for the sake of feedbacks on an account they started themselves knows that a few $100 is not bad, and that $37 is NOTHING when it comes to a secure Ebay account. Sure there are the 5 or 10 things that are common sense, or that you can learn from reading on the internet, but there are a LOT of things that I didnt know. Things I didnt realize DONT matter, and things that DO.

Anyway, I wrote all that just so that anyone else on the fence knows that the book is both CHEAP and what I'd consider the BEST. Dont even BOTHER to start or buy another account before breezing through it.

I'm sure a lot of other buyers of the book would agree, if just given a place to say so. This website is very informative and great for new thoughts and discussion, but the book is the BEST. DEFINITELY the place to start.

Anyone else bought it?

For starters no one should 'breeze' through the book. It takes more than that even for people with degrees in ebay BS. We are not going to have a long discussion on its merits. It's proven to work. Anything you may not like, then I recommend a pm to aspkin. Everyone is different. Some people may go your way and think before they do anything. Others will jump in the deep end. That's their right. The forum exists for them as well.

It's a very well constructed book. It has been purchased by many users. Look for users with names in green. They have purchased the book.

I dont agree about paypal. aspkin helps many people with alternative payments. There is Trial pay.

Absolutely, I agree about the "breezing through it part", it's worthy of reading very carefully.

I bought it and was blown away, that was the main point I was trying to make. I suppose after seeing the word "ebook" in Ebay penny auctions for so long I became unnessesarily skeptical.

The book is DEFINITELY the authority on the subject, and hard to go on about without sounding like a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ review. I didnt realize the connection to this website when I bought it, and I learned more in the last 2 days than I have in the last 9 years on Ebay.

HIGHLY recommend for anyone who is on this site and doesnt have it yet.

@Donna, that's 1000% true. The book together with the forum helps many people who have been punished by ebay/paypal. Thanks to aspkin, we have a great aid to beat ebay/paypal

I'll be quite honest with you. The information regarding how to set-up a new stealth account is excellent. It's a step-by-step guide into making a working stealth account and that's in essence what we paid for. I hate saying this phrase but, "that being said" I already knew the information regarding how to set-up a new stealth account, it was information I already knew like arsgunner77 pointed out.

The reason this book is so good is all the extra and insider information on how to keep these accounts working for you. Which is some of the most important tid bits of information you could probably only find in the book or the forums if you search hard enough. The content in the book is well worth more than the asking price.

It reveals some of the most secret details you need in order to achieve creating a new account. There are also remarkable examples of how to keep track of all your accounts. So if or when one goes down you'll have accounts to back-up on to keep your business running.

Five stars and two thumbs up for this book sincerely, it does what it claims it can do and exceeds beyond that. If there were more you could ask for you'd be being greedy. I could go into further more precise and intricate details the book offers that I personally liked but, they would spoil the book and I'm pretty sure that's not a good idea.

Ok i'm planning to buy the 'Stealth' book, but i'm feeling nervous because i'm seeing numerous cases of people starting stealth account then getting limited straight away, so i'm thinking that maybe this book isn't being updated with new information, or maybe there is just no way of knowing how some people get found out.

Is 'stealth' an Ebook or a physical book?,if so how long is delivery to UK. Maybe I have missed the information somewhere.

Obviously there are alternatives to 'stealth' available, so I want to make sure i'm getting the best info for my $37.

I just bought it 15 minutes ago. I'll let you know what I think after I have some time to digest it all. I'm very anxious to start rebuilding.

Hi Sasasasa, it's an Ebook, but a GREAT one. I highly doubt anyone is starting a Stealth account and getting limited down the road unless they vary from the rules of the book, this book is priceless, as it puts together a few of the commonly known tricks with an indepth walk through (and many more tips) of starting over. HIGHLY recommend, I suggest you buy it off of one of the links from this site, so you're sure to get the right Ebay book. I dont know how many others there are out there, but as you can see from the forum this is THE place to go for help. (This site and the ebook...)

That was the reason I started this thread, was because I was on the fence for so long and wish I DID buy it in the beginning.

I hope that helps!
Donna

Really? It shouldn't be a problem for CA users.. some Asian countries get an error message because my main payment processor (TrialPay), blocks those users.

I do have several alternative payment options though. You can check them out here: Alternative Payment Options :eBay Stealth - eBay Suspension & PayPal Limited Guide

My main hold-up right now is I need help on Amazon more than anything. I also however perceive myself having plenty of ebay problems in the future. I wish you had a book that covered both.

The book is worth its weight in gold. What happens alot with ads you see on google and informercials is the tell what you could do, with out any direction. The Stealth Book gives you a step by step guide how to resolve the the issue with evilbay and and its business partner Payasspal. So for $37 bucks you get a Associates Degree how to EBAY and PAYPAL like a rockstar. Plus you get all these people who want to help the next man woman or child get thru the BS. You must read and reread this information then print the summary so you can check of each step as you go. And go slow build a few account (10 or more ) over a period of time BUYING stuff so you can get over. THE EBAY STEALH need a grammy,emmy or tony something for what it has done for us EBAYERS and future ebayers.

OK. I was going to be DONE DONE DONE with ebay but after reading this thread, I have to buy the book! I've been doing pretty well on a few websites selling some things but not near the income I had from 3 ebay accounts (2 were powersellers!). I was pretty sick of dealing with all the scumbags and cons on ebay but must admit that I miss that income!! I had been flipping real estate since 1994 & when that market took a plunge, I began ebaying & soon got addicted! Then they pulled the rug right out from under me........
I'm off to buy the book! Thanks to everyone for their input!
