Paying for Information??

Back in the days before the internet (gasp - how DID we survive???), information was not readily available to us. If we wanted to learn about something, we had to schlep to the library and check out old fashioned books. Or even more old-fashioned - look things up in an encyclopedia!


With this fabulous invention you are looking at right now, we've got more information than we can ever possibly use, right here at our fingertips, available with the click of a button. As with all things, there's a good side as well as a bad side to the internet. There is good information online. There is bad information online. The internet is only as valuable as you let it be. It's up to YOU how to use it.

If you had to write a report on Stonehenge, would you PAY someone to go to the library and check out 3 books for you? Or would you just get your lazy self to the library yourself to get those books? I'm pretty lazy, but I'm not THAT lazy. I'll just go to the library myself, thankyouverymuch.


Why then, would you want to PAY someone to go online and gather information for you that you can easily find yourself?? The internet is amazing. If you look for something, you WILL find it. It's out there, somewhere. Take a quiet evening, do a few searches, and start reading. There is NO limit to the information available on the internet. Go find it!


Another option would be to gather where there are knowledgeable people. Wouldn't it be more interesting to go to a live presentation about Stonehenge? Hanging out with like-minded folks is always a lot of fun.


Come on over to our eBay Underground Facebook Group and hang out with other knowledgeable sellers. You'll find SO much information there ... for FREE!! If you have a question about something, just ask! With nearly 400 members, odds are VERY good that someone will know something about what you're asking. And if not, odds are VERY good that someone will know in which direction to point you to find the information you are looking for.

  1. I'm amazed at home many knowledgeable people that are on our board! And.. guess what? Lots of these people have threw away money on ebooks, consulting, programs and have learned for more with our team of Top Sellers and upcoming Top Sellers that share information without a hidden agenda.

  2. The very few times that I've PAID for information i.e. Hot Tips, Inventory Sourcing, What to Sell and When, etc. I've been BURNED ... badly. There's FABULOUS sharing that goes on at eBay Underground to foster each others greatest successes! (Nice post, Jessie!)
