Unlocked Blackberry - iphone, storm2

I ordered this phone and got it very quickly which was a pleasure. The phone came in perfect condition and is unlocked as advertised. However, the description states in bold that the phone comes with a 16gb micro SD card and original accessories. Up to now I cannot find this 16gb memory card. I have e-mailed the seller and am awaiting a response. I was very disappointed to see that I did not get this piece as I considered it a good part of the deal! Blackberry Storm2 9550 Unlocked World Phone

Unfortunately I can not says good things, I have complain about that Item...

When i opened the case and checked the mobile, I saw 2G function is not working, only the 3G functions is working.

Then I inform the Amazon about that incident. They send to my complain to the supplier, Supplier doesn't want to change or take back the mobile...

For that reason I am not happy to use that mobile without 2G function.So when you buy some electronic Items directly check and if some problem send back to the suppliers within one month.

Regards,

I'm not exactly a BB person, but due to conveniences with my friends and family I decided to migrate to it. I looked at the options available and came to the conclusion that the Storm 2 was the best option. The phone is just great! the touchscreen works very smoothly and overall the applications are what I was expecting. The only issue was that I couldn't make the EDGE connection work with my carrier. The phone is fully unlocked for calls but you need to verify first if the data connection will work with your carrier. Out of the 4 carriers in my area, the phone only worked with 1 (All carriers are GSM/3G). Also, the phone didn't come with the 16GB microSD card. However, this was easily fixed by calling Amazon. They were extremely helpful and willing to give me a solution so I could get this card.

This phone is really great. The capacitive touch screen is perfect. Once you fool around with it for a few days, you can figure it out. It is business friendly and looks very good as well. You have documents to go to view and edit Word, Excel and PowerPoint files. It is Quad-band unlocked GSM phone which you can use all over the world.

So, why did I give it only 3 stars?

What they don't tell you is that it is unlocked for voice but not for data. In other words the only way that you can get BIS (Blackberry Internet service) on it, is to have a company like Verizon which operates on CDMA technology. You can not get BIS for it in Europe or many parts of Asia. I am stationed in Kuwait in support of the US Military. My Kuwaiti sim card works in storm2 as far as voice and making calls are concerned but you can not get BIS for it.

If you live in America or do not care to have BIS, go for it. It is a great touch screen phone with outstanding capabilities.

I placed an order for this new phone from Amazon, The seller was JTOWLE... when I received the phone I observed that the phone had some glue stains smudges & scratches!!!!! It appears that I was sold a refurbished phone instead of a new phone which I ordered from JTOWLE.... I emailed both JTOWLE & Amazon & to date I haven't gotten any reply from either of them.... People be awear of the phones they claim are new phones when infact they are selling you refurbished old phones!!!!!!

Given the usability and power of the Blackberries I have used so far, I was having high expectations when I bought this Phone. But it lasted only until I got the phone. Setting up the phone was not so straight forward. Not because of the UI or anything, but RIM's much touted implementation of touch screen. While every other touch screen implementation is a "touch screen", RIM's implementation is a combination of touch and click. So if you want to click a button, the touch will select the button and pressing again to click will trigger a real press on the button. While in theory this can save the user from unwanted clicks, the main issue with this is that the click doesn't work really well in every part of the screen. Especially when you have a button on top left corner, clicking that will take all the energy you have. I almost felt like I will break the screen. The clicks on the center of the screen as smooth enough so its not a big deal for most buttons. Except when you use keyboard. I really dont know how a company like RIM is allowing such a product to be released to the market when such a big usability issue exists.

the next big problem with the phone is with the network service. While it supports data via Wifi and 2g/3g networks, I dont see an option to force the phone to use only the Wifi network for data. ( Or at least this is not so intuitive if such an option exist).

Installing and using apps also was not so simple. I downloaded and installed Google Talk, and on trying to login, it keeps giving me a message that The service is not enabled for this phone. I am not sure what this means at all. For comparison, I have done this on an Andriod phone and that was pretty straight forward. No issues at all..

In short, If you are a techie who wants some adventure ( really?? There are so many better ways to get the thrill than setting up and using a phone). Stay away from this.

Or if you need enterprise email etc and have an IT department to help you setup this for you, then you may consider this. Or else never even think of it. Android is way better for the common man. - Storm2 - Iphone - Unlocked Blackberry Storm - Blackberry Storm'

Portable Digital Tv - portable tv, battery operated tv

Visit Store Now !!

I purchased this TV /DVD player as a Christmas present and was shocked to find that the T.V. did not pick up one channel with the antenna provided. I got a booster antenna at Radio Shack for $12 and was able to get 22 air channels. The DVD works well and the colors are very nice. I'm not too sure how well it will work when we get out next hurricane or how long the battery will last, but this is why I purchased this item. Philips PET729/37 7-Inch LCD Portable TV/DVD Player

Philips PET729/37 - 7 Inch LCD Portable TV / DVD Player

I purchased this as a Christmas gift for a friend and I always like to set things up to make sure the item is working before I give it to the party in question.

Setup was a breeze, very intuitive. I hooked it up to the cable system and it found every channel, it only took about 5 minutes and I was watching a very sharp picture on the 7" screen. Sound was good also, I think she will be thrilled with it. I got this as a lightening deal, but I think it is worth the full retail price.

Wow! what a deal. I purchased this for myself for Christmas of 09. It arrived quickly. The picture is very clear and the sound is loud enough for me. I pick up all the digital channels, even some I can't receive on my cable tv. The only thin complainant I have is that you can't control the on and off and the sound from the remote. But I still give it a five stars rating. Also it really sounds great when you hook up some small media speakers to it. If you can, get one that has a sub woofer. Pop some popcorn and enjoy.

I bought this tv/dvd player as a treat for myself, after saving up loose coins all year. I first purchased another brand (the Envizen), but the dvd player had problems, and it took a lot of effort to get any tv stations, so I returned it. But this Philips is wonderful. Without any effort at all, I received 10 local stations, easily and clearly. I lucked out and bought this product before the price went up, so I feel like I really got a great bargain. This is a great choice if you want both a dvd player and tv (especially if you have a power outage and are trying to keep up with the news...like during a blizzard such as I'm in the middle of now!).

This is #4...I've been looking for a "portable" TV since last summer, the 3 previous..would not receive any channels without hooking up to a antenna system.They were "back in the box" the same day. This unit found 5 with it's own antenna...good start. Picture is clear..display...full control of picture and channels. Remote controls everything, except ON/OFF and VOLUME.

The "fold" open/close is real handy, protects screen and a stable "foot" to set on a surface...DVD seems ok too(really just wanted a tv). Only feature missing is a "card slot"...pictures and music have to be on a disc. For the price..I rate it #1 value. Setup menus were very easy, speakers have good volume.

I AM EXTREMELY HAPPY WITH THE PURCHASE OF THE PHILLIPS PET729/37 - 7INCH LCD PORTABLE TV /DVD PLAYER. TALK ABOUT PORTABILITY, IT IS THE GREATEST. IT IS VERY LIGHT AND WAS EASY TO SET UP. THE TV AND DVD 'S COME IN VERY CLEAR. THE SOUND IS EXCELLENT AND LOUD. I WORK NIGHTS IN A PEDIATRIC HOSPITAL, DURING MY LUNCH TIME I CAN WATCH THE TV OR PLAY A DVD FOR A SHORT PERIOD. SOME OF MY CO-WORKERS WHO HAVE SEEN THIS HAVE ALSO BROUGHT ONE. I ALSO GAVE ONE AS A GIFT. I ALSO RECOMMEND BUYING THE TARGUS DVD 301 10 SPORT PORTABLE DVD PLAYER CASE. IF YOU BUY A 7 INCH CASE YOU WON'T HAVE THE EXTRA SPACE FOR THE EXTRAS. THE CASE ALSO HAVE ROOM FOR A LOT OF DVDS AND ACCESSORIES EASILY.

I DO HAVE ONE REQUEST, I WISH THE PRINT ON THE QUICK SET-UP GUIDE WAS LARGER, ESPECIALLY FOR THOSE OF US WITH BAD EYE SITE. BUT DON'T LET THAT STOP YOU FROM BUYING THIS ITEM. THERE IS AN INSTRUCTION MANNUAL INCLUDED. I WAS SO EXCITED THAT I TRIED TO TAKE A SHORT-CUT TO SET IT UP.

ORIGINAL REVIEW:

All in all, this is an okay item. Having read previous reviews, I followed to the letter the bit about scanning for stations prior to trying to watch station. I used the antenna provided, and came up with most of the stations, except for our local ABC station. I'm in Los Angeles and have line of sight to Mt. Wilson, so not getting ABC was a shocker. I got 64 stations in all. I read about the antenna booster thing, and did not know what that was. Went to Frye's and they sold me an amplified antenna (which I am taking back). I got 76 channels with that, and ABC came in. I'm going to try the booster antenna question at Radio Shack as per one gentleman's review, and see if that will be better than carrying around this thing from Frye's.

My concern with the antenna as provided, is that I plan to use this when traveling and will need to rescan for different cities. I would like to be able to get the full range of broadcast stations, ensuring I have access to the major networks as I travel. Not getting ABC in the LA area is what drove this concern.

As for the TV/DVD itself--once the channels are found, the provided antenna works well. Signal gets noisy/loss when you move the player itself, which is a surprise since you would think the signal would be dependent on antenna placement more than the TV itself.

I have two major disappointments, which make me wonder if I should return the unit. After looking at other TV/DVD combo options available, I think I will keep this one and compensate, unless I decide to get only a TV unit (sans DVD player for which I can use my laptop):

1. The screen angle is not very forgiving. Being LCD, you have to look pretty much dead on. If you move above or below, or left or right of the perfect viewing angle, you begin to see the image in negative mode.

2. If you plug in the earphones, you cannot control the volume. I guess I need to find and use a pair earphones that has its own volume control, such as the new Apple ones.

3. When I first plugged in the earphones, I had volume to the max (so I could hear the thing). After plugging in the earphones, sound leaked from the speaker. I dialed the volume down using the volume dial, and that took care of the problem, but as stated above, it did nothing for the volume going through the earphones. That leads to believe that the volume controls only the external speakers, and is totally disconnected from the earphone jack.

Other peeves--volume control missing from remote control--seems like this would be a no-brainer, but....Also, volume is not very loud if you use the speakers. I had it on in the kitchen, even before meal prep started, and I could not hear it from the table to the stove, about 9 feet away. Also, there is the likelihood that volume that comes through the earphones is as loud as I can get through earphones, then earphone volume is going to be inadequate if I am in a noisy environment (back seat of a minivan, commuter train, Amtrak, etc), anyplace where ambient noise may be a bit much. And, I think i read somewhere in the product description that it was a black unit. Mine is white on the outside and is black only when you raise the screen--black on the inside. This is ok with me, but some people may object to the white exterior, especially if kids are involved!)

The goods-it's lightweight and easy to handle. I can watch a DVD anywhere, as long as I keep viewing angle dead-on.

REVISED COMMENTS:

I got the volume control bug worked out. It turns out that there are two plugs, one blue and one yellow, that the earphones will work with. One turns out to be the "line out", the other is the earphones jack. Neither is marked, so if you did not pay close attention to the picture in the manual (which, obviously, I did not) it is easy to confuse the two since you get sound out of the wrong one. While I had the player running, I did try moving the earphones to the other plug, but got no sound, so I stuck with the original plug, which I now know is the wrong plug. Once I turned off the unit, plugged the earphones into the other (blue) plug and turned the movie on again, the earphones worked AND the volume control wheel functions. So, I am increasing my star rating to 4 from my original 3.

Other pros and cons remain the same as in the original review, posted here above. - Portable Tv - Battery Operated Tv - Portable Dvd Player - Digital Tv'

Divers Watch - invicta, russian

Visit Store Now !!

Dont get me wrong I like this watch and its got a massive 52 mm case. My only problem is that its not swiss made like the watch in the picture , insted it says swiss movt. which means the movt is swiss but it was made in China and not subjected to the superior quality control standards of the Swiss. So anyways I checked the model numbers just to make sure It was the same watch and it was but I suspect the watch in the picture is a older version but since then Invicta has cheaped out and started making them in China to save money , but the retail asking price is the same $ 575.00 which seems kind of shady to me.

Since my original review amazon has corrected and updated their pictures to say " swiss movt " insted. Invicta Men's 4338 Russian Diver Collection Black Watch

I purchased this watch as addition to my collection of affordable watches that I don't just store in box but also can wear.

This watch is large at 52mm but it is not uncomfortable on wrist. The weight is amazing for its size. The numbers and hands are very bright at night and can be clearly seen.

The rubber bracelet is very comfortable and not irritating skin. However, it is unusual short for the watch this size. I have wear it on the third hole from the end. But it's not a problem (at least from me) but some people with larger hands might not be able to fit this watch.

The price is also right in a spot for quart movement swiss made watch. If you can see my previous reviews, I always like quartz watches (though recently I purchased few mechanical watches). I am "time-accuracy freak" so having perfect time is must for me and this watch keeps perfect time.

The only thing that this watch is missing is a second hand. But because I am not wearing this watch at time when seconds play much difference, I am ok with it as well.

I am highly recommending this watch to men with medium to large size arm/wrist. Men with small hand may find this watch too heavy and too large.

If you are looking for a nice, somewhat dressy looking diver's watch, this might fit your needs. While the yellow or orange are certainly showy, this one is just casual enough but does not look as if you just came out of the water. I have been wearing mine for three days now and am really enjoying it. It is a large watch but is not uncomfortable. You will certanly have no trouble seeing the time during the day or night (nor will anyone else that is sitting around you). It is holding good time and I assume that it will continue to do so. If you are looking for a nice price on a big diver, take a closer look at this watch.

I almost passed over this beauty because I normally like more complicated dials such as chronographs. While searching the web for watches, every time I saw this watch I stopped and stared. This watch is art in simplified form. It doesn't even have a second hand! The big black face and narrow bezel showcase the oversized arabic numerals and large markers all done in luminous green. Everything you see on the dial is luminous, and I mean everything!- including the divers helmet, the Invicta name, every letter, and even the date window is outlined. To top it off the entire face is encircled with a luminous band. Awesome. No other watch lights up like this one. On the side of the case opposite the crown is the engraved Invicta name. The rubber strap is high quality and extra thick. The bezel, case, barrel inserts, and buckle, have the appearance of polished black onyx against the flat black color of the strap. The coin edging around the bezel looks great from the side. Another thing Invicta is doing right is that as they make the larger watches they are keeping all of the dimensions proportional. As they get wider they also increase in depth sitting higher on the wrist. I've seen other brands that look like little flat pancakes from the side. Not appealing to me. Invicta watches are great quality overall. If your getting into large watches no one has more styles than Invicta, and that goes for their regular size watches as well. By the way I have a 7 1/4 inch wrist which is small, and I can wear up to 52mm in the Invicta line. Don't be afraid to give the larger watches a try. Good luck!

I had been planning on purchasing a new watch for a while now. I don't normally wear watches, instead I just use a cell phone to get the time. But my new phone has a screen lock that is a bit of a hassle to get unlocked JUST in order to see the time, so I started looking for a watch.

I have seen different Invicta watches on Amazon before and really liked some of them. I didn't know much about them so I started doing some research and found that most people say the quality is very good for the price.

After looking at quite a few of them on the Invicta Store here on Amazon I stumbled across the Russian Diver. I really liked the looks of it as soon as I saw it. Then I saw the size at 52mm and was a bit startled. That's a LOT of watch!!!

I ended up ordering it while it was a Deal of the Day and I'm really happy I did. As usual, shipping was super fast and the packaging was exceptional.

When I opened the watch I was immediately taken by the size of the watch. 52mm as a size seems large when you're using a ruler...but when you actually see the size of this gigantic watch it will probably catch you off guard. Not only is it wide, it's also pretty "deep." What I mean by that is it sticks off of your wrist quite a bit.

The face of it is beautiful. Every detail of it just works. The numbers fit with the face perfectly, the hands fit perfectly, the date fits in wonderfully and doesn't look out of place, and the green surround offsets the black of the watch excellently.

The black metal is awesome. It's shiny and subtle at the same time, which in my opinion is great because you need the color to be slightly subtle on a watch this size.

I've read many opinions on different websites that suggest that the chain for the canteen cover doesn't fit the watch very well, but I disagree. I think the chain does a great job of finishing off the overall aesthetic of the piece. I wouldn't ever think of taking the chain off of mine.

The overall weight of the watch on the wrist is definitely more than I'm used to. Like I said, I don't normally wear watches and when I do they aren't anywhere near as large as this one. The weight takes some getting used to, definitely.

I've only had the watch for a short while, but I've already gotten several compliments on it. It's definitely a piece that draws attention to it. People see you and are instantly drawn to it.

All in all, I'm extremely pleased with the purchase. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another Invicta watch, and the 5 year warranty that comes with the timepiece through Amazon is a wonderful addition. - Divers Watch - 52mm - Russian - Invicta'

7-port Usb Hub - 7 port usb 2 hub, usb hub

Visit Store Now !!

This USB hub works. Over the years, I've tried more than a dozen others, from Chinese no-name to Belkin and Griffin hubs with iPod docks and card readers. None of them has worked reliably, and I have ended up using my precious MacBook USB outlets (why only two??) for must-have external hard drives.

This new hub was a success right out of the box. It instantly allowed the MacBook to recognize everything I plugged in, and it has never hesitated, even with four hard drives running (I believe in backup), plus other bits and pieces. I am soooo happy not to have to wonder any more if I have a good connection.

The unit is certainly not the slimmest, if portability is important. Also, with the seven outlets all on one side, it is less convenient than the CablesToGo equivalent, which has four on one side and three on the other. That said, I now have it set up compactly, and can just forget about it.

The construction is solid, so I have no fear of damaging it with lots of replugging. The USB cable has a solid S Type connector (as is often used for printers), rather than the flimsy little camera style plug, which I assume helps performance. It also has a more than adequate power supply.

Of course, it could be that I just got lucky after years of lemons - but I don't think so. This unit is made to be functional, rather than simply looking slick, and it succeeds. Now I can get on with what I want to do, and not worry about those nasty crashes. 7-Port USB 2.0 Hub, Black

I had a Belkin 7 port powered hub and just couldn't get more than three things to be recognized at once. So, off I go to Office Depot and buy another Belkin hub. Exactly the same problem. One day the thought occurs to me that maybe this hub is underpowered. Not a big enough power supply. I don't have any way to test this, but with this hub, all seven devices connect up no problemo and run just fine. Wish the light had come on earlier and I'd bought this first.

This is a quality product. Good materials, well-made; all ports work; the design is attractive and compact; hub stays on desk, no mounting necessary. Very good price, fast shipping. Considerate followup by Cyberguys to boot -- these people know that doing business is about providing value and service (not just 'making money').

This 7 port USB hub has it all. Works for Mac and PC. Just bought my first Mac and the reviews by other buyers mentioned lots of hubs won't work for Mac. Small enough to be unobtrusive and always easily available to use all the time. I have mine attached with velcro in the back of the shelve my keyboard is on, so it is very convenient to access and out of sight. I plug in the USB cables for my camera, a couple of flash drives, my iPod cable, and scanner, so they are always ready to use immediately. And still have room for more!

Cyberguys were all about customer service and it shows, and a great price too. I now go to them and check out what they have first before trying anyone else. 5 stars for Cyberguys and their USB hub.

LMC

I needed a USB hub when my Mac Mini ran out of jacks and finding the ones on the sides of my monitor became a pain in the neck...literally. The unit works fine.

A couple of suggestions for the manufacturer though: The green indicator LED's on the front are a nice touch but pretty useless since they are so faint that you can hardly tell they're on. Second, three of the USB's should be in the BACK of the unit and four in the front (or some configuration like this). Most of my peripherals needing a USB I keep plugged in all the time. Things like my digital camera and GPS don't and are perfect for the front. Permanently plugged-in USB devices on the front makes for an unsightly tangle of cords which I would rather have out of view.

This unit does require an outlet for its transformer...just one more thing gobbling power all the time.

I usually run out of USB ports or it becomes a pain to keep plugging and unplugging wires from the back of the desktop. I chose this device because it comes with an external power source which is necessary if you want to plug an external hard drive to the hub. Without the external power source, it usually will not have enough juice to power up the portable hard drive. I have used all 7 ports at the same time without any issues. Wireless mouse, camera, portable hard drives and flash drives plugged in all at once.

Great price and a great buy. Recommended!!

I've had great results with this unit as others as well, and I've used almost all the ports simultaneously.

MY RECOMMENDATION (connecting any non-powered external USB drive): If you have an external USB drive not showing up, use short mini-USB cables. With longer mini-USB cables, there seems to be enough voltage loss through the cable, that some devices don't get enough power. Search Amazon for the "RiteAV - USB 2.0" 1ft cables.

Whether on this hub or just plugged into my laptop, the three foot cables are too long. With the short cables, EVERYTHING powers up and works!

This Splash Masque screen worked exactly as it should. I did waste the first screen in the 3-pack because I rushed ahead and didn't read all the good advice on the package. In addition to instructions on the outside of the pack there is advice under the flap, that you will see after you open it, about how to align the screen with the glass. It is a little tricky. The first time around I didn't get the screen aligned well enough and couldn't recover. The second time was a charm.

There are three layers in each of the three screen application kits in the package. The bottom layer is what you peel off first, to reveal the bottom of the actual screen protector, which is the middle layer. The top layer is quite thick and helps you to manipulate the protector and align it with the Thunderbolt. Once you have it lined up and stuck on, and after you squeeze out any air bubbles, you peel off the top layer to leave only the screen protector on the glass. At that point it is probably better to use your finger to squeeze out any last bubbles as the edges of the "stick" they provide -- just a piece of rigid plastic sheet -- could scratch the protector.

Note that the protector covers the whole glass surface of the touch-sensitive part of the phone's screen, which is larger than the display itself.

The cloth in the package did a great job of cleaning finger marks off the screen. A few dust particles still stuck to the screen after I cleaned it, but I used a can of dust blower that I happened to have on the shelf and that took care of them. Or you could just blow -- the humidity in your breath will help to suppress static electricity. splash Masque Screen Protector Film Clear (Invisible) for HTC Thunderbolt (3-Pack)

I have the Splash Masque screens for my Droid Incredible and iPad and love them so I got these for my wife's Thunderbolt. The no-fluid/static cling application is a lot less fussy and involved than the likes of Zagg and Bodyguardz, offers the same protection in my opinion for straightforward daily use with common sense care (i.e. don't use a sharp pointy object for a stylus) - at a much better price. We also like the way they feel - not too different from the original surface (not sticky/rubbery like the Zagg). They also reduce smudging.

With regard to installation, I think the hardest part regardless of the type of protector is keeping everything dust-free. If you ever installed a protector, you know that the smallest speck creates an annoying bubble. So I liked the fact that I got three chances with the Splash Masque since they come in a 3-pack. In fact I got more than 3 chances -- I got dust on all 3 screens when trying to apply it to the T-Bolt, so I got desperate and tried to use the "squeegee" card to scrape the dust off of one of the protectors. Guess what, it worked! Granted, it took me a while (guessing 20-30 min) and several applications (because you can't really see the dust until you put it on the screen, so then you have to take it off, scrape, try again, etc.), but in the end, I got a dust-free, bubble-free application which looks great! (couple of bubbles along the edges but didn't care about those since they're mostly covered up by the case) I don't think I would've been able to do that with one of the "wet" application protectors like Zagg...

I wanted a screen cover for 2 reasons: 1) to protect against scratches (I throw my phone in my purse) and 2) to stop having to rub the fingerprints off with my pants. This screen does both perfectly.

It was fairly easy to install, but make sure you really clean the screen with the cloth because any little particle of dust will make an air bubble. I ended up using two screens before it got it right. I still have a few tiny air bubbles, but they are all on the edge.

Also, just be aware that the screen is a few millimeters smaller than the screen.

What's you get: 3 screen covers, a dust cloth, and a piece of thin cardbord to remove air bubbles.

This screen protector is the best i have ever had, it doesn't go on any easier than others i have applied but if you take your time it will go on with no air bubbles. Its a great fit for the screen and i had no bubbles after installing it, once on the screen you cant even tell its there.

I bought these after i messed up on a different brand I purchased. I took this one out of the package, followed the directions and boom. Went on with no fuss. No bubbles either. You can't even tell there's a protector on my screen. I bought the 3 pack and probably won't need the other 2. Very happy I purchased these. Well worth the money!

Perfect fit and non-sticky like others I've had for other devices. Its on the high end price-wise, but it at least covers the entire screen of the phone. I've seen others that only cover main portion of the screen, leaving exposed the 4-home buttons on the bottom and the logo on the top. Installation is like most static-cling screen protectors and I didn't find this one to be easier or harder. Bubbles are a pain and dust is a major factor to deal with. I messed up the first protector, but got it on the 2nd try. I've had it on for over a month now and its worked perfectly. - Invisible Shield - 4g'

I stumbled across this book by chance when I was looking for books on photography and what a gem it is! I love the layout and the photographs that are

used as examples. The text is not only easy to read and understand, but it's funny as well. I found myself laughing while reading it and I'm now eager to put my new knowledge to work! eBayPhotos That Sell: Taking Great Product Shots for eBay and Beyond

Using simple, lo-tech language and a wealth of color photos, this excellent book can teach anyone to arrange, light, photograph and even edit macro (closeup) pictures. I bought it sight unseen on a friend's recommendation, and it's even better than I thought it would be.

The instructions are always clear and simple, and every instruction is illustrated with full-color, detailed examples. The results make you look like a professional photographer (or could even make you become one!).

I've bought tons of books on Amazon; but this is the first one I've felt compelled to review, because it's so darn good.

If one takes a look at the items up for sale on eBay, many of the items have pictures. Some of them are stock photos from the manufacturer's website, but the great majority of them are amateur photos taken with a digital camera. The photographic quality of eBay is usually on the lower end of the amateur scale, filled with distracting elements, flash reflections and a host of other problems. The goal of this book is to teach the reader how to take product photos that sell.

The authors of the book do an excellent job of guiding the reader through the process, from the initial setup to taking the photos, to editing them in software. This is a rather non-technical book, and the focus is definitely on the photography and not the image manipulation aspect of product photography. It is written to be understood by the beginner, but has useful tips for advanced photographers as well.

The book is filled with pictures to provide examples of how to transform an everyday object into a visually appealing photograph. The advice and tips given in the book helps beginners solve the common problems of home photography. It is an excellent introduction to product photography and a valuable reference book that no photographer (or eBay seller) should be without.

Not being a true photographer(strictly for business) I looked through many books hoping I could find one that would help me take better photos for eBay. That's when I stumbled on this little gem. I'm sure this stuff is old hat to photo pros and hobbyists, but to those of us who don't know our f-stops from our brackets, this is a God send. My photos look so much better, that I've gotten compliments from friends and buyers (who'd a thought that!) People ask me what kind of camera I use, settings, etc. and my answer is read "eBay Photos That Sell". If nothing else the chapters of Objective and Subjective photos will help most folks (and don't forget the shower curtain). Simple stuff I know, but it makes all the difference in the world. BUY this book! You won't be disappointed.

An interesting aspect of this book is how it often advises you to improve your photos of items you're selling on eBay. Not by image enhancement via Photoshop, as so many other books do. Instead, it recommends trying simple steps in the real world, that might actually be faster than several hours in front of your computer. For example, if you have a black, shiny item, then polish it so that smudges and fingerprints are not visible in the photo. And take that photo against a white background, for high contrast.

This is the general tenor of the book. Practical, non-high tech steps. A good counterpoint to other eBay books.

This is a great book and definitely a rare find as few books focus on product photography. The steps given for shooting great photos of items you want to sell on eBay are simple and easy to understand. The techniques outlined are easy to follow and you don't have to be a professional photographer to understand what is involved. It has been proven that ads with great photos on eBay are more likely to be successful auctions and attract more bidders. If you're serious about selling on eBay, this book is a must read.

I have been selling on eBay for over 11 years, am a Top Rated Seller, Powerseller and a Certified eBay Education Specialist. What I am NOT is a photographer. What I found in this book was easy to follow tips and suggestions and wonderful pictures (of course).

There is a maze of photography books that you can purchase but none really hone in on creating simple clear and effetive pictures for the eBay business. I highly recommend this book to you as I do to my students. A gem!

As a beginner at selling on Ebay, this book gave great hints and tips on creating product pictures that will really stand out. It worked particularly well for me because I already had purchased the same camera and photo software that the authors used, but I can see it being less effective for others who haven't. Still, the lighting instructions and ideas make the book worthwhile!

I thought the book was a little pricey. I always justify my purchases, if the book contains at least one technicial piece of info, I did not know or it's info I was searching for.

So that being said, I justified my purchase.

It's a good informative book and has a lot of pictures as samples or this is the way to make the shot.

I would recommend this book to anyone going into EBAY as a seller. - Internet Presence - Useful - Computer - Ebay'

Woodworking - nail gun, brad nailer

Visit Store Now !!

Same as a previous reviewer, it comes in a cool plastic BOSTITCH case, and a pack of nails is included, so you are ready to hit the ground running with this one.

It looks like something that has been a demo unit for a short time, but if you did not know it would be hard to tell it is not new. Works well, I loaded it and shot a few test rounds, it was adjusted well, fires firm yet relatively quiet compared to my stapler.

Even though I may think this is a great price for this item, I am sure these units made in China cost a small fraction of my price. I ordered mine from CPO through Amazon, ships from Atlanta, was here in NY in two days.

Enjoy it, definitely worth a buy even for an occasional project here and there. Factory-Reconditioned Bostitch U/BT1855K 18-Gauge Brad Nailer

Received the Factory-Reconditioned Bostitch U/BT1855K 18-Gauge Brad Nailer the other day. It came in a like new case with nails and instruction manual. Have not had a chance to try it out but the nailer looked almost new. Assuming I have no problems with it's function this is a great deal at 1/2 the price of a new unit. I may re-vist after I have had a chance to use the nailer. - Nail Gun - Brad Nailer - Brad Nailers - Nailers'
