Sometimes, though, we might wonder about future of eBay, because sheer volume of goods for sale might bring this giant to a halt. Today, for example, there are 425,641 sports card auctions. Many of these are dutch auctions - meaning sellers are offering multiple items. So actual number of cards for sale is even higher than gigantic list of auctions. If you are a seller trying to auction a few cards, and you aren't really skilled in business like Auction Genius Course students are, what are your chances of selling? Is it possible that in future sellers might be looking for other options if they can't sell their goodies?

Here are some of best online auction links if you're looking for life outside eBay:

It seems as though you are selling products on eBay, but really you're not. What you have to sell is:

* Your time * Your knowledge

And you must maximize use of your time, rather than spend it constantly writing listings. The best way to do this, of course, is with a template. A template is a pattern that you can use again and again, without having to write news listings every time you have an eBay auction.

Here is an example of a template that I used when I was selling ready-made websites on eBay:

I only had to make a few changes on page, such as ...

* The picture at top left * The website name * The appraised value

... and my auction was ready to list. Time spent: under five minutes!
