Virginia Allain said Transform Your Home with a Click of the Mouse. I love browsing on eBay, but hadn't thought about using it in my decorating efforts. This book opens your eyes to the wealth of objects (often one-of-a-kind) on the auction site that you can use to transform your home.For beginning eBay users, the book covers registration and tips for browsing and buying so you get the most for your money.

This is reassuring if you are nervous about making your first purchases.Anyway, this book is a great alternative to searc. "Not as I expected" according to K. Weiss.

I do not recommend this book for anyone who wishes to decorate stylishly. Also, the book is not that informative about buying on eBay.
