Title: Should have been good, had it not been so self-serving
Product review: I'm really disappointed in this book. The overall premise was a solid one, that if you can buy (say) a DVD for $12, watch it, then resell it on eBay for $5, it really only costy ou $7. The author goes into some of the history and theory of secondary markets, why they work, and why they are important.Unfortunately, I just gave you the whole book. He repeats the above 3-5 times a chapter for 10 chapters, and weaves in commercials for his own, drop-shipping company, claiming that only fools or hobbyists would consider selling things on eBay themselves. I wish this book had been worth the time or money it took to read it, as the topic is a fascinating one, but instead I feel like I was duped into reading a barely disguised brochure for the author's company. I cannot recommend anything about this book.
