    REVIEWS

Books about e-commerce tend to be like uninspired sex: a convenient shortcut to a nap.
But this one is like the jolt of a double espresso.

-- The Wall Street Journal

"Shopaholics and the rest of us will need Nissanoff's blueprint for the oncoming secondhand revolution that's just starting up as armies of pack rats clean out closets, garages, attics and sheds for profit."

-- Palm Beach Post

"It's been a few years since dotcom explorers claimed to have discovered an online El Dorado. But Daniel Nissanoff has been there, and he has returned with a map that he says leads right to a $250 billion market. The best part? The trailhead begins with the junk piled up in our very own closets."

-- Fast Company

 

"If you think putting out $700 for a stroller is foolish extravagance, think again... The stroller is only one of scores of examples [Nissanoff] provides to drive home the point that consumers today are increasingly shedding their "accumulation" culture mind-set and are moving toward an "auction" culture mind-set."

-- Boston Globe

"It would be a good investment to buy [FutureShop] -- new or used."

-- Arizona Daily Star

"Would you buy a used engagement ring? What about a used share of Google stock?
What's the difference? This breathtaking, clear, compelling book by Daniel Nissanoff reveals
that in the future, there is no difference."

--Seth Godin, Author of Free Prize Inside

"Dan Nissanoff's FutureShop is an insightful look at an explosive new trend, revealing that the future looks bright for consumers and entrepreneurs alike, and that the new auction culture is here to stay."

--David Bach, Author of The Automatic Millionaire and Start Late, Finish Rich

"Ebay and it imitators have profoundly changed the way consumers shop and buy, and
Dan Nissanoff's FutureShop shows that what we've seen so far is only the beginning."

-- Michael Silverstein, Co-author of Trading Up and Senior VP, Boston Consulting Group

"What was the last business book you read that kept you up past your bedtime? This one will.
Who knew that the future of secondary markets would be so entertaining?"

--Paco Underhill, Author of Why We Buy: The Science of Shopping


"Dan Nissanoff views the future with a 'jeweler's eye,' and FutureShop
is a quantum jump in strategic thought."

--Ed McQuigg, Group VP Marketing, Richemont
