 Out of date December 26, 2008
This book covers a lot of topics, ranging from screen by screen walkthroughs on how to create an account to how to set up an Amazon Auction or Amazon zShop.
Unfortunately, some of this information is already out of date. For example, Amazon discontinued zShops entirely more than a year ago. I was disappointed with this book because I was looking for more insight than screen by screen walkthroughs. I can follow the instructions on the screen just fine, thanks.

If you have never purchased or sold anything on Amazon before ... or, if this is the first time you have ever logged on to the internet ... then this book might be for you. Or, if you've tried selling on Amazon and can't figure it out, this might be for you. Truly, this is for "dummies" only.
I hope this doesn't sound tongue-in-cheeck - I'm really trying to be sincere. If you are of reasonable intelligence, and have used the internet, then you won't learn anything new here. A LOT of filler, no criticisms, no unique ways to use the site. And a LOT of buttering up Jeff Bezos...almost as if these two guys are wanting a job or something. (Or maybe they are somehow related to Amazon or Bezos?) Also, much of the book is already outdated.
For me, this was a waste of time. For you...it all depends.
About half is useful. Outdated and disappointing May 10, 2008

I purchased this book with the idea of having somewhere else to sell besides Ebay. some of the initial sign up information is ok and I had no problem. When I went to search auctions that's where the bottom fell out. I wanted to sell a few things to see how it went without paying for storefronts, ect. I spent about 2 hours going around in circles according to the screen shots and directions trying to do an auction search and to find out what is selling. All to no avail. I stopped short as the book was showing out dated screen shots and direction wasn't even close to Amazon actual links. This book is ok for initial sign up but without back up bucks for storefronts and the extras required, is of little use because of the huge changes Amazon did to their site. I gave it 2 stars for basics. Don't pay full retail. Maybe good for selling books only. Doubt if you'll make a fortune as Amazon really cuts into profits of what you do sell. See fees section on the Amazon site.

This very literate guide book, shows you from a - z, how to make money using Amazon.com as your Storefront! After beginning this book, before I even finished reading it, I was already making money. Best guidebook, by far.How to Sell Anything on Amazon...and Make a Fortune!

I don't remember why I bought this, because the very title screams BS. Anyway, I did and it is not a bad read. However, like most "how to" books, you can find everything in the book with a little work on your own. In this case, everything in the book is in various Amazon help files, with the exception of a few fulfillment services discussed at the end. Anyway, I don't know about making a "fortune", but it nicely puts all of the necessary information in one place.
