I purchased the stealth book and todate i have 5 accounts up and running smoothly. I must admit because i was broke, i couldn't afford to buy ebay stealth and opted for a trial pay offer instead which was cheaper. I couldn't have spent that money i had on anything better. It was the best investment i have ever made... My trick is every week i revisit the guide, reread it to see if i've missed anything. To the author, i am indepted to you. I thought all was lost and i wouldn't have been able to provide for my family as i have a young daughter who i am home with. Thank you, thank you.. I am forever grateful and there are no words to describe my thanks for getting me back on my feet!

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?

I hope you already found your answer. If not to access your router page: Your computer must be directly connected to the router, no wireless. Pull up IE or firefox. Type in the address 192.168.1.1 which is the routers IP and press enter. A username and pw box should pop up. If you've never accessed this screen the username should be 'admin' and the password 'password'

If you need more info on using the router settings there is tons of info and screenshots all over Google.

Good luck!

I really hope that it works...

I was an Ebay member for 7 years, had 2640 feedback (99.8% positive)
I purchased an item on Ebay from another seller, then tried to resell it on Ebay for a profit. 2 weeks ago Ebay said that the item was a trademark violation, and they suspended me. They also suspended my wife, 2 of my friends, and my boss (who is very mad at me now because he used that account to sell stuff for his business)

I really need to get back on Ebay, I am losing money every day...

I will give my review on the book after I read it.
