You want to find a business that you can get into using eBay. The first thing you want to find is a good type of product to sell. You want to be able to set up your business and once it is set up, you don't want to spend more than a few hours a week on it. You have heard claims that there are some ebook businesses that could be set up like that. Is what you have heard true, or is it another one of those pie in the sky promises to get you to fork over some money?

The answer to that question is yes and no. Not much help? You will find it will be, let me explain. There are two kinds of ebook business sellers. There are the ones that are up front, honest and will tell you exactly what you can expect from an ebook business on eBay and what you can't expect from that business. There are others, who are only trying to make a buck any way that they can. They are not looking our for you they are only looking out for number one. Those are the sellers that will give you pie in the sky promises until they get hold of your money. Once they do that, they say goodbye and you may never hear from them again.

Of course you should only consider dealing with the ebook entrepreneur who is like the first one I mentioned, up front and honest. You can tell this from a few things. First of all what is his track record. Has he done the things he is promising to show you how to do? Has he been on eBay for a while? Is he a well known seller? A powerseller? Does he have a good feedback score. If you can say yes to all of those questions you can be reasonably sure that you are dealing with someone who is reputable.

The second thing you need to look at is, what is he claiming that you are buying, how will it work, what kind of help will he offer and what kind of guarantee will he commit to. Is the seller telling you that this will be a system you can put on auto pilot? If so, how hard is it to set up? Will he be able to offer help if you get stuck? How many hours a week will you actually need to put in. How many hours will it take to set up? Can your seller set it up for you? If so, for what fee?

Take a look at the sellers own ebook store and auctions. Have you purchased an ebook from him? Buy an inexpensive ebook from his store and see how the process works from the buyers end. Did it work smoothly? Did everything happen the way it was supposed to? Did you get your book quickly and easily. Actually making a purchase like that will give you an idea if in fact his business is automated. You will see how efficiently that automation works and whether you as a buyer is satisfied with his system.

If you have answered all of the questions favorably and you have completed an ebook transaction that worked well and you are happy with, then you should have pretty good feeling as to whether this seller really knows what he is doing. You will know if he can sell you an automated system if you see that his own eBay business seems to work well.

The bottom line, yes you can purchase an automated ebook business from a seller if he passes the litmus test outlined here. A reputable seller, that runs his own automated system, that stands behind his product and has the support to help you out will be able to provide you with a turnkey auto pilot ebook business!
