If you sell on eBay, or if you believe you would like to be an eBay
seller, the following convention agenda details are for you.<br><br>
<br><br>
We will be conducting two very different types of eBay information
sessions this year. The first one, scheduled for 1:00 p.m. on
Sunday, July 3, in Wekiwa 7, deals exclusively with use of the eBay web
site. If you're brand new to eBay, or if you've found using the web
site difficult, this is the session for you. Those of you who are
comfortable with the web site and are looking for business tips and
winning strategies should plan to attend one of the three gatherings
later in the week instead.<br><br>
<br><br>
The Sunday program is intended to provide you with hands-on
experience. By the end of the afternoon, you will have walked
through the process of preparing a listing, with the help of eBay
Education Specialists, up to the point of pressing the button to make it
go live on eBay. <br><br>
<br><br>
We have space for 30 participants, and some preparation on your part is
required, so we are requesting that you preregister by email to
<a href="blocked::mailto:mgabias@nfb.org">mgabias@nfb.org</a> no later
than June 25.<br><br>
<br><br>
Wireless computer access will be provided, but those registering for this
session will need to bring their own wireless enabled computer.
This can be a laptop or netbook. Notetakers such as the Braille
Note, Braille Sense, or Pac Mate will not work effectively on eBay.
<br><br>
<br><br>
In your registration request, we will need to know your name, telephone
number (a cell phone number that you will be using in Orlando would be
most helpful), the type of access software you will be using and its
version number (Jaws 10, WindowEyes 7,Apple VoiceOver, etc.) We
will also want to know what Internet browser you prefer and the release
of that software you are using so that we can offer you targeted
help.<br><br>
<br><br>
We ask that you visit
<a href="blocked::http://www.ebay.com/accessibility">
www.ebay.com/accessibility</a> and register as a buyer, a seller,
and a PayPal user. If you have registered successfully with eBay,
please let us know that in your email concerning the Sunday
seminar. Members of the eBay team will be available to help anyone
attending the Sunday seminar to complete eBay registrations ahead of the
convention, provided your request for assistance reaches us by June
25. Again, registering for the seminar and registering as a buyer
and seller on eBay are different processes. You will need to do
both to participate fully in the Sunday seminar.<br><br>
<br><br>
The two hour session on Monday, with repeated sessions on Tuesday, and
Wednesday are intended to help you find answers to your questions about
what to sell, how to sell, whether to use an auction or fixed price
format, how to make your listings stand out, and any other strategic
questions about how to be successful as an eBay seller. No
preregistration is required. Successful blind eBay sellers, along
with members of the eBay team, will be available to share their
experiences and answer your questions.<br><br>
<br><br>
If you have questions about either seminar, or if you wish to register,
please email Mary Ellen Gabias at
<a href="blocked::mailto:mgabias@nfb.org">mgabias@nfb.org</a>.<br><br>
