I know. I am late. I have had a very busy day but I hope you all had fun and safe and scary good times today (yesterday, whatever) and that Halloween rocked your world.
I have never watched Martha Stewart’s show in my life but I just may have to start because that picture is awesome on a multitude of epic levels.

Boo!
I awoke this morning to my trees outside my house covered with toilet paper and realized that it must be Halloween! Either that or I really annoyed someone over at Charmin. You can never be sure these days.
But in addition to heralding a night of trick or treating and haunting, Halloween also signals that it is only one week before the first eBay Weekly article. I thought I would take this opportunity to not only introduce myself, but also to give you a quick overview of what to expect from The eBay Weekly.
First, me. My name is Hillary DePiano and I have been selling on eBay since March of 1997. I am a PowerSeller, Trading Assistant, eBay Store owner as well as a collector of several 80’s toys so I am a frequent eBay buyer as well. I am the author of several books, some upcoming, including The Trading Assistant’s Assistant, The Seller Ledger: An Auction Organizer for Selling on eBay, The My Little Pony Collector’s Inventory and The She-Ra Collector’s Inventory. I have a lot of experience in several different areas of eBay and Priced Nostalgia approached me to do this new weekly blog to share some of my experience with anyone who is interested.
In other words, I am offering you useful info from over 10 years of eBay experience, totally free. Who can say no to that?
New eBay Weekly articles will begin next week and will continue with a brand new article every Wednesday. In addition, there will be weekly “extras” that will sneak in between the usual weekly posts, special offers and more.
If checking this webpage each week isn’t for you, you can also subscribe to The eBay Weekly either through your favorite RSS reader or via email here.
I look forward to sharing my eBay knowledge with you in the coming weeks and that you for your interest! The site will be going through a few changes during these first few weeks so we welcome any suggestions that you might have!
Happy eBaying!

Neverwhere: A Novel
I decided to read this because I enjoyed Stardust and this was that same author’s first book. Very similar to Stardust in a lot of ways but worth a read. It was a great Halloween book because it is very weird and very creepy and parts are also very funny so I can easily recommend it. I am not going to tell you what it is about because you are basically better off just going in with no expectations.
