The Four Tier Annihilation Method is another “Anti-Guru, Day Job Killer” style product that’s sold based on “hidden secrets” … “crushingly effective methods of plowing giant profits from the internet” … “underground tactics” and “competition destroying tricks.”
But it’s really a book about making money on Ebay…
The author doesn’t even mention that in the sales letter because no one would buy it if he did!
That said, a lot of people do make a great living on Ebay. So let’s take a look at what you get in this package.
First, there’s a 145 page PDF manual that contains 4 modules for making money on Ebay.
Module 1: Research, Sourcing And Selling Physical Products
This section shows you how to sell physical products like cameras and phones. You learn how find out what’s selling on Ebay, where to find the products, and how to sell and deliver the same products yourself.
Basically…copy what’s already working (no big secret). But you will learn all about drop shipping so you don’t have to actually store the physical products.
The “Legal Hijack System” is where you find a bulk supplier of a hot-selling item and then get them to “drop ship” the product to your customers. You keep the profit between the wholesale and selling price at Ebay. Although this method could be very effective, it would require a large existing customer base.
Module 2: Info & Digital Product Takeover
This section is all about selling digital products on Ebay. Unfortunately, Ebay doesn’t allow you to sell digital products anymore. You can only use classified ads to sell digital products. However, you can sell digital products on CD, which can be automated at Kunaki.com.
The author also talks about “site flipping” (buying and selling websites), which could be very profitable if you’re selling to the right niche market.
Module 3: Tier X Selling
Tier X involves being the middle man for selling high ticket items like Rolex watches, cars, and real estate for large commissions. You negotiate a commission from an off-line seller and hook them up with buyers on Ebay. Apparently, you can make millions from this method - like a real estate broker.
Module 4: Internet Marketing
This section covers “top secret” stuff like:
- Posting classified ads on Ebay
- Finding products to promote at ClickBank
- Using CPA networks like Azoogle Ads
- Selling your info product on Ebay (outdated material)
- Building a list by promoting a squeeze page on Ebay classified ads (I’ll have to try that…)
- And of course, managing your list with Aweber
Overall, this course is pretty in-depth and has a lot of screen shots to illustrate the examples. Although, I can’t really say if these methods are effective or not because I don’t sell anything on Ebay.
It also comes with 10 screen capture videos that you can download and watch on your computer. They were created by the author and show you how to implement the methods in the manual.
My Advice:
If you’re already building a business online, stick to the plan. If you don’t have a plan and want to get into Ebay arbitrage, product flipping, and brokering real estate, then this might be your ticket to the big time.

Hey great post. I was actually wondering about what the product was about…
And from the screenshots, it looked like it had to do with Ebay…
Looks like there will be some refunds for that product…

Thanks for the honest review. Personally, I didn’t get past the testimonial picture that made me wonder just what the young woman is selling.
I did want to note, though, that the information about promoting a squeeze page from an ad is also old. Just exactly what you can do on eBay ads is still way up in the air, but links to off-eBay sites is prohibited.
It’s distressing that the author of this product didn’t hold onto it to make all the necessary updates per the new eBay rules, particularly when asking $77 for the thing. eBay selling is getting more complicated by the minute, and I hate to think of newbies buying this thinking it’s-up-to date and accurate.

Thanks, Derrick the truth always hits the spot!

Granted, Mr Wade claims to have gotten his online business start with eBay while you lay no such claim whatsoever and in fact state that you do not deal in things eBay at all, but the contrast between Ryan’s review of 4T Annihilation at http://ryanwade.com/the-four-tier-annihilation-method/ and your own is like that of up and down, day and night, dog and cat. More so, I might add, in that there is an abundance of detail in your article, and nary an inkling of “useful information” in the other.
Derrick, I have been on your mailing list for a couple of years now, get your newsletters regularly, confess not to always looking at them, and am actually joined up in Affiliate Cash Secrets (I think). I read your review of this newly launched site first, in fact before I got Ryan’s review link in my in-box. And I thought to write something comment-wise here immediately after reading it, but then other affairs drew my attention away. However, after reading Ryan’s very enthusiastic and positive review (bearing in mind that he is totally an eBay master himself), but one that doesn’t give any DETAILS, I wanted to say thanx for what you have to say about it. And enough said. Okay, later on,dude.

Thanks Derrick - I was considering this product even though I was suspicious of the hype. Interesting that they condemn others on their sales page for what they call K.U.S.A.C. - “keep users stupid and confused”.
Ahem!

I appreciate this review Derrick. Too many people follow the product creators head-first into hype-land without a second thought to the real purpose of a review.
It’s better to let the user judge a program based on ALL the facts, not just the sales hype.

Thank you! I was just about to purchase that but now you changed my mind. Nice sales letter but ebay is not for me.
June 12th, 2008 at 3:13 pm
Thanks for the review Derrick - Having read the course I’d have to agree with you. With so many ways to make money online, people might be halfway to successful with one method, but then come across something else and jump on the bandwagon. Get one thing established and then move on to the next! Cheers.

Derrick,
Thank you for your review. I have read the sales page and found myself with two reactions…One of disgust and one of awe. the disgust was primarily because of the tactcs used…the awe because of the precise and well planned HAMMERING. It one of the few sales pages that I felt like copying, not to duplicate, but for dissection and analysis. I wish you Good Luck and Joy on your Internet Adventure.
Much Success,
George Pierce
PS. Derrick, I hope to see you at DQ oneday-Grin.

Hey Derrick,
What a great review! -
I was looking at the product,
and wondering it is was at all
real or not.
I’m glad you dispelled the
mystery and told it like it is.
You just saved me $77 and
created a lot of credibility
for yourself.
Thanks!

Hi Derrick,
Good, in-depth review there. I have bought the 4 tier annhilation due to the fact that I don’t have any project going on.
Let see how it goes..
Once again, thanks for the review!
June 18th, 2008 at 11:31 am
Thank man…
I already do have a plan and am making a little money. Basically using much of the information in Chris McNeany’s 3 books as well as a few others that I have read. I am not rich and have been working 12 hour days on my days off and am finally making a little money. I am tired of all the anti-guru hype…Anybody can make money and there is no conspriracy….No ebook can tell you everything you need to quit your job…there are juicy nuggets of info here and there…My advice=Take what makes sense, test it out, adapt it and create your own style and refine that and dont tell anybody exactly what you do. This takes time and effort as everyone wants to make money at home. Autopilot income requires a lot of work to set up…just remember that. Your work is never quite done in IM. Keep at it and don’t lose your shirt…and never, ever give up.
I have tried several failed attempts at making money online before i found something that works and one of them involved Ebay….I hate Ebay and want no manuel that tells me how to “profit” from it. I also hate sourcing products and “dropshipping” scams. I won’t be buying this book. I appreciate the truth.

Derrick, I just wanted to thank you for a very honest and straightforward review without even sounding like a mini-repeat of the salesletter. That proves your credibility, especially in the cynical and skeptical crowd of Internet Marketing folks.
June 19th, 2008 at 1:44 am
Hi Derrick,
Your honest detail review is the one and only true best….I read through many reviews which is basically trying to soft sell affiliate commission or promoting
their upcoming product (inclusive one person post here).
June 25th, 2008 at 12:48 pm
Hi Derrick,
Thanks for saving me $77.
I’ll stick to list building, co-reg and article writing. They might not be fancy or new but they work and are solid money makers.
Sincerely,

Finally someone said the truth and revealed exactly what 4TAM really is, basically a bunch of outdated hype. I believe most of the information about ebay can be found free in the internet, and in ebay itself. Thanks for helping and sharing Derrick
July 17th, 2008 at 10:20 am
Thanks for the review. Your information here is sure to make things a lot easier for people to make up their minds then the actual sales page.
Gotta love those marketers who tell you everything a product is not. But then I guess that’s marketing 101.
From the feedback I’ve read about 4Tam it’s a well written product for making money with Ebay.
