Getting the "Best" out off eBay!

In my opinion eBay is very greedy. Taking 9% on everything you sell including shipping plus an insertion fee! How in the world can we make money! I have read around the internet and seen many people complain about the fees being to HIGH! Although many people complain, they still use it. Including me. I used it because it is the easier way to sell things fast. They have a huge audience and I (anyone) need that to make a sale. So how do I make the Best out of eBay you say?
I don't! Just Kidding!

Some Tips!
1. Take advantage of the free insertion fees on auction!
eBay offers free insertion fee when your item starts as a penny! BE CAREFUL! Study your item on eBay and get a view on how much your item sells for. Chances are your item might sell the same, or even more.
2. "Steal eBay's Audience" 
eBay has existed in the World Wide Web for a long time. Through out that time eBay has accumulated many people. Put a link in the description of your site. I do not think it is against the rules to post links leading to another buying page (your page). For this you need PayPal. Learn how to make Buy Now Buttons on Paypal. PayPal fees are like 1%-2%, much cheaper than eBay.
3.Watch the news.
Most of the time items being sold on eBay are things that happen in the world for example "Charlie Sheen" His tickets sold very high once he became a sensation Another example is Osaama Bin Laden's death. On eBay they sold for about 10-20 dollars for the newspaper. So keep up with the news and take advantage of what the world brings.


If you have more tips please share. I will put more as I learn more.

Watch Movies Free on Iphone, Ipods and Ipads! With Crackle!



Sony recently released a new app for the iPhone called Crackle. Crackle is a Sony product, similar to Hulu. The big difference is that Crackle lets you watch their videos on your iDevice without signing in or buying a subscription. They have many shows to pick from, like Seinfeld, Married with Children and many others. You can also watch full length movies. There is not a wide selection of movies like Netflix, but Netflix is a paid service. Crackle is free due to ads in the movies and shows.The ads are very short, its what makes this service better. This a app is free for iPhones iPods and iPads, you can even use this service online with your computer.

Color App Review for iPhone & Android!



A new app (well not new new) has come up on the app store call Color.
The idea of this app is to share photos or videos with people near you. The photos/video are share with anyone within the 150ft range, no uploading or attaching required. There is no signing on or making an account. You can see different perspectives of the same thing or location. . You can also leave a message or comment on the photos you see. Color is a new way to socialize.

I think this app is a great idea but not many people have it yet. Of course when it first came out Color was very confusing to use. All you really saw on the app was icons which you would not know what they were for. Updates have been made to make the icons or buttons represent things that actually relate to its job better. The app may need some more work but for now it does as advertise.

 It would be cool to see different persons point of view and see other parts of the city I have never seen. I will keep on using it and expect more people to have this app later on.
