    Hello.
    Its very commom find sellers that sell ebooks like: How I make thousand every monthy secrets revealed, but hell, of course he is making it because he sell a lot of ebooks for 10 dollars or even 50 dollars and a lot of people buy it.

    "7 dollars secrets" is a ridiculous example, because you make money re-selling an ebook (for 7 dollars, duh) about how to make money, so its a pyramid because the writer receive a lot of money, secondary buyers (buyers who buy when the ebook is launched) can also get some bucks but the third party buyers will lose the money because they will find a lot of people selling it for 1 dollar.

    tell me what do you think about it

    I think it is a bit weird, if you know how to make money you won't need to be selling ebooks on making money for peanuts....

    One of the ways, which I think is that we could get a package which sell dozens of e-book or software with resell rights (normally will be cheaper than buying individual products). Re-packaged them into different package or individual products and start selling. You might be able to earn some income from them.

    PM me if you want to know how you could exactly do it.
    Cheers!

    make money re-selling ebooks isnt good because there is always semone else selling it for 1 cent. the best way is to write your own ebook.

    I have made several ebooks and not on making money - also I think you have the 7$ secrets backwards.

    I have the script and use it all the time to sell digital products - it is a great script ebook, and the facts are more realistics within the ebook - also it is not a pyramid since he is giving 100% profits to his affiliates - his advantage is he gets more leads and can sell to them more often.

    i got it by torrent hehehe. its a pyramid because:

    the owner make a lot of money
    the primary buyers start selling on they own website and fithing on ebay, BUT NOBODY MAKE A LOT OF MONEY AS THE OWNER.
    3rd buyers will throw it away for cents because the market will be already full and also competing with people who download it for free.

    this is the re-sale rights ebooks pyramid. you can try to setup your own website of re-selling ebooks because on ebay it will have always some cheaper than you. but you will make much more money if you write something original and sell it for 5-10 dollars

    IC - but it is not a pyramid since the top originator is not making any moey - once the resale rgihts were bought the originator will not earn any money - a pyramid benefits the originator at most similar to an MLM style

    so the situation becomes where the buyer of the resale rights now can make money from the script by arbiing it on the net, which is a no good plan

    agree, some ppl selling e-book only selling "method to make money online" as a subjeck but in fact we can make money only if buyer selling his ebook again or as his affiliate. so he's not selling method but selling scheme.now Im not beliefe with make money ebook .
