The Missouri Higher Education Loan Authority announced this week that it would begin buying back a portion of its auction rate securities at a discount on the Restricted Securities Trading Network.  See the related news stories in Forbes and the St. Louis Business Journal.  This news is a mixed blessing for investors stuck with these or other auction rate securities.  While such a buy-back will finally allow them to escape from these investments, they will probably have to take a loss on the investment if it is bought back at a discount on a secondary market.  Many investors around the country were sold auction rate securities by major brokerage firms who incorrectly claimed they were safe, liquid, cash equivalents.  This has turned out to not be the case as evi

There are several kinds of auction software out there, most related to automatic bidding. This kind of software goes against eBay's Terms of Use and can possibly land users with suspended or terminated accounts.There is one type of eBay auction software, however, that can put an eBay user at an unfair advantage without being against eBay's rules. This is due to one prevailing element - the human factor.People inevitably make mistakes from time to time and unfortunately for some eBay sellers these mistakes are in their eBay listings. Many eBay listings are posted every day with typos in the title of the listing. Since important words in the title are misspelled, very few users find the listing through eBay's search tool.There are free tools that take a word that the user enters and search f

There has been quite a shake up in the eBay selling community. Now that eBay is implementing changes, unhappy sellers are trying to find an eBay alternative.Unfortunately for its competitors, eBay has a very large stake in the online marketplace. However, there are some auction sites like eBay where you can sell your goods.The two main alternatives to eBay I use are Amazon.com, and Craigslist.Amazon.com is a great place if you are selling books, music, DVDs, video games, or other electronics. It is very easy to use compared to eBay. All you have to do is find the item you want to sell, write a couple sentence description about its condition, and set your price. One of the best things about Amazon is that it is very straight forward, and you have to spend almost no time answering emails fro

The scammers use two accounts to accomplish this method of eBay scamming. It works like this. Let's say you put your item up for auction and let's say your item is worth $50. The first scammer comes along and bids say $20 on your item. Of course, if everyone knows the value of your item, the first scammer isn't going to get it f
