Have you ever wondered why some eBay listings go for a lot more than others when the products seem practically the same? Greg doesn't. He's a power seller on eBay who has figured out how to make more on every auction just by incorporating a few key direct marketing strategies into his listings. And he reveals exactly how he does it in this three-part audio seminar

According to Greg, it's really all in the marketing. Ebay has already done the hard part for you by bringing you targeted buyers who have searched out your auction. So, like Greg says, "your fish is hooked and your bait is already half-way eaten." All you have to do is create a description that will close that deal.

And over the next three hours, you'll not only hear how to create those kinds of descriptions, but you'll also hear everything else this eBay expert does to turn his auctions into bidding frenzies.

Part One

In Part One, you'll hear how Greg and his wife use a cell phone and a computer while shopping at garage sales to find big-ticket eBay items at below-bargain prices. You'll also hear how they set up their listings so that those items are easily found by the people who'll want them the most.

Craigslist is great for finding good free stuff to sell and make money with.

But you know what's even better. Your neighbors who live right under your nose. You'll hear several stories about stuff I have gotten off the street from my neighbor and sold for good money. They are all around you.

Your next door neighbor, your upstairs neighbor, the neighbors across the street from you. If you're a student and you live in a dorm, it's your neighbor across the hall from you.

Have you ever heard of Russell H. Conwell's Acres of Diamonds story? It's about a man who spend his entire life looking for his fortune in Diamonds.

And he dies a lonely broke soul. The future owners of the property were walking across a creek on the property and saw something cluttering in the water. And it was the largest diamond mine ever found. All the wealth in the world had been right where this man was his entire life.

And it's the same with you. This letter will find the diamonds in your own area. You'll have full use and information on how to distribute it in your neighborhood with out paying postage.

All with your order on my Craigslist Magic System.

When most people think about the junk business, they picture huge lots full of rusty cars, assorted parts, and expensive machinery. And that’s a fairly accurate picture of a thriving, serious, junk/scrap business.

But there are also little guys out there making it off of what other people throw away – as a side or main business, with or without property to put their stuff on. And they’re not experts on parts, metal, or antiques either.

They’re just people who have learned to recognize valuable stuff from trash. They also know what to do with it.

And in this audio, you’ll get a feel for exactly what that industry’s like from an expert. Dave’s been making a decent living from his small scrap business since the 1980s, and although the industry has changed a lot since then, there’s still plenty of opportunities to be made if you know how. And he’s going to tell you.

You’ll Also Hear…

* A full-proof strategy for getting any idle car you want in your neighborhood for cheap – sometimes, you’ve just gotta be patient and on-call

* Do this one thing to most of the broken lawn mowers people toss out in your area, and Dave says they’ll start right up, so you can resell them for quick and easy cash

* A couple quick stories that illustrate why Dave’s motto of “You’ve just gotta go look” is the most important saying in this business (because things could be much, much better than described or much, much worse)

* The one place you should always grab your flashlight and check for hidden money in any used car (and the other surprising valuables people stash away in their cars then forget about when they sell them)

* A quick-start guide to piecing out a junk car – how much parts usually go for, what a “core buyer” is and how to find one in your area – and a cost-effective look at whether or not this is even worth it anymore

* The shocking truth about the US steel industry and China: what happened and what that means for you Dave’s “barrel route” for getting started today in scrap – he says no one else is doing this, so it’s a huge opportunity (and all you really need are a few $3 barrels and a homemade trailer)

* Dave’s small Yellow Page ad for buying junk cars that did better than most the full-page ones right by him – and the 3-step plan he used to close his deals for cheap

* There’s a lot of value in what other people consider junk, but because they don’t see it, they’ll give it to you for nothing, or next to it.

If you learn to recognize worthwhile stuff from trash (and know where and how to resell it), you’ll not only make a good chunk of change for yourself, but you’ll also be doing the environment a favor by keeping the landfills from piling up with stuff that doesn’t need to be there. It’s easier than you probably think. And this audio will tell you how.

In the United States, we’re drowning in appliances. They don’t last long, and when they die (or when they get upgraded), people just toss them out. Washers, dryers, refrigerators – and most of these only need a simple fix to be running again. That’s why they’re a great area to start with when you’re thinking about getting into the scrap/junk business.

You just have to know your market and what you’re doing. You also have to know how to tell the easy fixes from the ones that aren’t worth the trouble. And in this lesson, you’ll hear strategies for doing all of that… before you even leave your house.

• How to use Craigslist and eBay as a quick research guide for knowing right away whether you should fix something or just toss it

• A little trick for becoming the “middle man” in an appliance deal: find stuff… but repair nothing and still get paid

• The one hardest part about repairing appliances – and the two websites you can go to that’ll make that part a heck of a lot easier

• The $2 item Dave says has saved his butt legally more than a few times, and how to use it to possibly save yours

• The one small-but-important investment you’ll probably want to make if you’re going to get into this business (but the good news is – you probably already own it)

Dave says the best part about starting with appliances is you won’t have to hassle with any of the titles or paperwork like you would if you were working with vehicles. And, he says about 75% of the appliances people throw out will only need an easy fix to get them ready for market. Stay calm and I'll show you ways to tell if the appliance you’re looking at falls in that 75%.
