This is the first of many posts coming soon to recap the 2nd Annual eBay Radio Party Event. I am thrilled to post one of the first videos, my personal favorite video of the entire event, the Selling with Integrity Skit on eBay Radio. This skit was the brainchild of Danni Ackerman, and starred Kat of KatsKloset, Beverly England (aka Bev) of Video-Town, Danni Ackerman of Udderlygoodstuff, and Jason Smith of TikiPugMusic on eBay!! This skit was both darling and hilarious, fun and educational, and showed all who watch it the feeling of community had by all who attended this fabulous two day event!
