With so much demand for his services he has finally agreed to write a book to expand his expertise to whomever wants to learn. If you have wondered how some people make a lot of money on eBay and Amazon then this is definitely the one you want, it is not a small quick how to book, rather, this is a very complete and detailed book but one written in a simple and to the point manner. You will learn just about EVERYTHING from A to Z to easily start and maintain a money-making business and/or hobby. Just look inside and check out the table of contents and you will agree, this IS the COMPLETE guide! There are a lot of books on the market about how to have a garage sale and yes some about making money buying at them but many of these books can be limited in their information. There is just SO MUCH opportunity out there; Antiques, vintage stuff from the 70's and 80's, CD's, Book's and the list goes on. However, to succeed at this, having the right systems, information and tools is critically important. This book provides valuable insights into successfully mastering the world of these sales. First, how to find and negotiate the best price for objects of value and, second, how to easily resell those same objects on eBay and Amazon for a nice profit. Beginning with a section titled "How to Use This Book," the author instructs his readers on how to maximize their efforts, how to discern what is worth buying (and, as importantly, what isn't). He also discusses many other very valuable perks to attending garage, yard and estate sales like finding high end clothes or even just general household items for your own or use which translates into a huge savings of money. This is also a great opportunity to start your own collection of antiques and collectibles which is both fun and an unbelievably good investment. Once the buyer has secured his or her bargains, the author walks the reader through an easy step-by-step system to resell those items for a great profit without spending a whole lot of time. Dan Blakely also helps his readers find their own personal niche. Using individual knowledge, the reader already possesses, to dominate those sales. For instance, let's say you know quite a bit about clothing, designer and vintage for example, well there are literally oodles of clothing to be had for next to nothing. Another niche that anyone can easily learn is how to buy books for next to nothing and re-sell them on Amazon. This alone can be a great profit center to supplement your income. This guide brims with nuts-and-bolts advice. For example, there is a chapter on how to organize your self without taking up too much room in your home and the middle of the book is devoted to instructing the reader on finding value in common items, such as DVDs, CDs. Dive into this can't-miss program for a steady second income or a fun new money-making hobby! Whatever you choose, buying at garage sales is a great opportunity!

Download or read book How to Find Hidden Treasures at Garage Sales written by Hugh Kelley and published by Hyperink Inc. This book was released on 2012-03-04 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABOUT THE BOOK Some people dream of being astronauts; others aspire to be doctors. I grew up to be a part-time picker. Finding treasure for sale - cheap - in other peoples garages or basements, combines the thrill of the hunt with the payoff of some extra cash. It feeds the curiosity bug, and keeps me out of crowded, expensive malls. Its a passion, and its got some basic, unspoken rules that will help you search out, identify and collect items for your pleasure and profit. So what kind of picker do you want to be? This is important, because one size does not fit all here... MEET THE AUTHOR Hugh Kelley is a journalist, writer, woodworker, antique picker and lover of fine art in all its forms. He's also a pretty good baker and cook. He's worked worldwide covering stories from earthquakes to revolutions, and when he's not in the middle of the news, he's looking for antiques in out-of-the-way shops and alleys. He's always looking to bring hidden treasures back into the light of today from the closets, attics and barns of America. EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK These web sites are all hungry for you to view their listings and get you exposed to their advertisers. There is often an easy-to-use search function thatll help you dial into your state, city and local area. Some of the listings web sites are free, so there is plenty of incentive for local estate sale business owners to list. Others, like estatesales.net, charge the company for the listing. Whatever their business model, use the internet to search out all the opportunities for you in the coming week. And dont forget to spread your search geographically at times. Look for upcoming sales in towns near your town, or even a drive away. If you live in a major metropolitan area, there will be plenty of sales, but dont ignore the outlying areas. Sometimes a drive will bring you to a sale with great prices and not much competition for the best stuff. While most garage and yard sales are Saturday/Sunday affairs, many estate sales companies begin their sales Thursday or Friday, and then run through the weekend. They do this to appeal to their main clientele: antique dealers and collectors. Running a sale on a Thursday morning means that the traffic coming through the door has cash and is ready to spend. These buyers are professionals, and the estate sales companies know that theyll come back week after week if the deals are good and the merchandise is priced right... Buy a copy to keep reading!
