I have been registered with eBay since September 1998. Until 2005, I had only 'casually' bought and sold items on eBay. I have found some very interesting items on eBay and impress everyone when I tell them I bought my 2005 Cadillac SRX and describe some of my other 'finds'.

I had owned and operated a local independent insurance agency for over 17 years. I sold my agency in September 2005 and opened EZ Auction Depot in November 2005. It was the first eBay 'Trading Post' established in Galveston County. I sold items on consignment on eBay and was a registered trading assistant. I sold the store in July of 2007 to pursue other eBay avenues.

About 5 years ago, I started teaching classes on eBay Basics through my local community education office. I have been an eBay Education Specialist since 2005 and am one of only 6 eBay Education Specialists in the State of Texas with a 5-Star ranking! I also appeared on 'Great Day Houston!' in 2007 as a local 'eBay expert'. Although I sold my storefront and am working as an insurance agent again, I still teach eBay classes and offer other eBay services from my home.

I have recently added a new service - eBay personal shopping - which I am hoping to ramp up now that the holidays are rapidly approaching. Click here to learn more about this service.
