Jen Cano of Hammertap joined The River the Ranch and the Bay (RRB Radio) with “What’s Hot on eBay” and updates on where Zhu Zhu pet sales are now! This was a great show!  Jen gave us an update on the famous, or should I say infamous, Zhu Zhu Pets, the adorable toy hamsters elusive to buyers in local stores as eBayers raked shelves and sold them on eBay.  These darling creatures even made it on eBayInkBlog.com, as posted 12-09-09, It’s a Hamster Holiday, complete with a heat map, a visual indicator of all U.S.-based transactions that occurred on eBay from November 1 to November 30, 2009.  After a few hamster giggles, Jen gives RRB Radio listeners research information on bibles that is money in the bank!  Jen’s tips include, what bibles are selling for the most money, what features to  look for, what is the average sell through rate (STR) for bibles on eBay, and so much more.  Finally she gives tips for selling depression glass and salt and pepper shakers, and what color glass sells the best.  We have had the honor of having Jen Cano on RRB Radio several times in recent months, be sure to check out the archives of 11-11-09 and 11-18-09 for  more research tips, and how important research is to selling items on eBay!  Click here to listen to this entire show of 12-16-09, get some giggles and a lot of great info!

The Future of the The Auction Rebel Website
Posted: 05 Jul 2009 09:50 PM PDT
Hello all, this is Gary’s son Mike. I have been trying figure out everything dad had going on online and it seems as though there were a few projects in the works but this was his baby that he tended to every day.MMPBR125x125
For the short term, 1 or 2 months, this site and the garage sale challenge site will remain up and running. Please feel free to use the forums and continue with your own garage sale challenge.
The long term has yet to be decided, I know that I am no auction rebel and am sure that all of you would fit that title more then me. Therefore I would like your feedback, thoughts, ideas about what the fate of theaucitonrebel.com should be. Is the site useful as is or does the information get outdated like dad’s computer that I’m typing this on? No idea is a bad idea, well except if you suggest I take it over, we will all go broke then since I don’t have dad’s eye for buying the 25 cent item at a garage sale that will sell for hundreds or more online.
I look forward to hearing your ideas and thoughts.
Thanks,
Mike Hendrickson

Many of us were saddened last week when we heard of the passing of ‘The Auction Rebel’ from our midst. This stark reminder of our own mortality happens more and more frequently, it seems, as we age. It started me thinking, again, about the ‘end plan’ I have for my business. A wonderful Mentor, Janelle Elms, first brought this concept to my thoughts and I’ve returned to it again & again. Right now the practical matters are foremost in my mind. I guess I don’t want to leave these type of decisions to my family to decide while they are dealing with other pressing matters. . . . . although from the above I can only say that Gary’s son seems to be right on top of everything and handling it wonderfully.  What are your thoughts? What are your plans? NONE of us are guaranteed tomorrow.

I’ve been following Gary’s blog for several years and have learned so much from him that I was very surprised to learn, when

he granted me this interview, that neither of my co-hosts had heard about him! So I am REALLY excited to introduce all of you to a wonderful resource, mentor and a great guy. Gary is such a generous teacher that just for signing up for his newsletter he will give you a free copy of his book ’222+ Non-Fiction books that sell for $25 or more on eBay’ and there is more. On his blog there is enough information to turn any garage sale treasure hunter into a dangerous predator that _I_ wouldn’t want to be shopping after! All the good stuff would be gone! So check out our Auction Rebel at his blog, The Auction Rebel, or Check out This Years’s  MAIN EVENT, The 2009 Garage Sale Challenge. You can find Gary’s items for sale on eBay and Amazon.
