In eBay - Looking Ahead To 2007 one of the predictions I made was that 2007 would see the launch of the first $1000 “how-to-eBay” information product.

While we aren’t there yet, a little more than one month later we have the release of Auction Traffic Mastery (no affiliate link) priced at $397 getting us more than a third of the way there. With an affiliate payout of $175 per sale, you can be sure every so-called eBay expert worth their salt is going to be flooding your email box with this one. I wonder how many of them have actually seen it or own it?

Notice that the product comes to you in the form of CDs. That’s because every Internet marketer of any repute believes that buyers perceive a CD or DVD to be more valuable than an ebook. What I’d like to know is when they talk about creating an information product in the course, do they recommend doing it on CD or DVD rather than in book form?

If I sound a little miffed about all this it may just be that I resent being referred to as “Joe Bob”. Sorry Timmy and Mikey, you don’t get my attention by insinuating I’m from the backwoods are of the south.

I’m from North Dakota and proud of it.
