About this product

Product Information

Ebay (www.ebay.com) is the single most visited commercial site on the internet - and one of the most successful. The Perfect Store tells the story of eBay's humble beginnings, launched from a spare bedroom in Pierre Omidyar's house, to its current status today - with 1,664,000 visitors a day, 20 million registered users and 75,000 people relying on eBay for their income. eBay started as a way to help Omidyar's fiancee trade with other collectors. It turned a profit in its first month and went on to change the face of business, creating the 'perfect market'. Reveals details of the company's rapid rise and the fascinating impact it has had on its users through the virtual marketplace. Examines the range of customers, from the woman who wakes at 3.00am to bid on a toaster, to the woman who had to rent a warehouse for her thriving business selling bubble-wrap. Reveals why eBay has succeeded when so many dot-coms have failed. Provides essential reading for those trying to understand how the Web is changing business, and for those trying to anticipate the next big thing.

  • A very interesting and insightful look at eBay through the ages.

    I bought this book as part of the process of applying for a job at eBay and found the insights into the company's history very useful. It's amazing the view this book gives of how one of the largest online businesses in the world was formed and the culture within the business. A good read for anyone wanting to understand eBay or looking into how the Dot.com era started.

  • Great read about the story of ebay

    Great book, still reading it.
