- Auction Seller Guide To Success
When its time to clean-up around the house, some people have a hard time deciding what to keep and what to throw out.

- 3 Unusual Formats For Auctions on eBay
eBay users are accustomed to only two "standard" formats for sales on eBay: either the 'regular' auction which involves bidding and waiting; and the Buy It Now, which is an instant purchase. But there are three other formats that are less well known.

Before eBay, the traditional auction included live bodies in chairs and an auctioneer up front (talking so fast he was frequently unintelligible).

For the record no less than America's second richest person alive, Warren Buffet whose personal fortune reached a dizzying $48 billion before he decided to give back to the society $31 billion can attest to this.
