三种途径解决Amazon的收款银行账户,望君商棋

一、在概述篇里说到三种途径解决Amazon的收款银行账户。 1.自己亲友在美国的银行工作。找亲友帮忙偷偷办理。 2.找各种国内国外的代办的人，办理个人银行账户或美国公司银行账户。好的美国银行账户一般是BOA银行、摩根大通chase银行、华美银行………..BOA比较容易封银行账户。 3.自己网上申请： payoneer卡（人人可以网上申请邮寄到中国，ATM机取款，满2万美元可以申请电汇到中国的银行）、 netspend卡（www.netspend.com需要美国地址、电话等再转寄到中国，需要经常打电话去解除限制）、 world first虚拟账户（需要大陆或香港公司去申请，钱电汇到中国或香港。可以谷歌搜索他们网站）等等。 二、补充： 1.找人代办 美国个人银行卡（代办人收费3千---7千多元不等）， 2.找人办 美国公司+税号+公司银行账户（6千--1万2不等）， 3.自己使用大陆公司办worldfirst虚拟银行账户---免费（谷歌搜索worldfirst，群共享也有申请表）， 4.自己办payoneer卡，也叫P卡（注册P卡地址：http://share.payoneer-affiliates.com/a/clk/4f0Ns6 群主2013年刚刚申请的推荐注册地址，当你收款满100美元后，你和我会各自获赠25美元）。 Payoneer卡所有问题解答论坛： http://www.mghost.cn/forum-81-1.html 以上world first和payoneer的取款手续费贵一些，但是办卡免费，找人代办的银行卡要花3千---1万2，取款手续费少一些，正规大银行的卡。 三、银行卡风险 1. 一般而言，美国的银行账户个人卡里面钱比较多，卡又在中国电汇转账或ATM取款频繁的话，美国银行会报告给FBI和美国国税局IRS，任何你的银行账户会冻结，直到你找人或自己去美国银行解释，提供证据证明你的收入的合法来源，才能解除资金的冻结。 2. 美国公司的公司银行账户，相对个人银行账户来说，更加安全，可靠，何况有会计做帐报税，报税可以报0费用，或做帐报少一点。但是也一样可能被美国政府怀疑有洗钱行为而冻结你的银行资金，这时候需要帮你办卡或办美国公司的代办人帮忙去解封，一般没人免费帮忙去解封的。 所以没有绝对安全的银行账户、银行卡。 本人曾经通过美国的朋友帮别人免费办理过11个美国富国银行的公司账户，但是现在不能办理了，美国的朋友辞职换工作了，现在有别的关系可以办理美国公司+公司的银行账户+公司的税号EIN，但是美国朋友在纽约，这里的费用稍微高一些，别的州的公司也可以办，但是要麻烦一些而已，需要的朋友可以问我，我把这位纽约的朋友联系方式给大家（收费的，比别人的1.1万，1.2万少好几千元。），大家自己找他，或晚上给我打电话问问题，我没时间答复，他也没多少时间答复。以后我也许会找到更多的注册美国公司的途径。还是那句老话，可以不要公司做Amazon，但是有人觉得有美国公司才可靠，才安全。 本人打算2013年4月底开始，也和美国密歇根州chase银行的banker、在美国密歇根州的朋友一起开展美国的个人银行卡代办业务，深圳辛巴达办摩根大通chase银行卡收费6000人民币，其他代办也差不多，我们打算收3500—4000元。这个价格主要是给银行、美国朋友、和我三人的。以前我免费帮别人办过一些富国银行账户，现在要适当收费了，免费的事做了好几年，现在无法在免费哟。每个月只能办理3—5个银行账户，多了不办，做仿货的人不给办，只办摩根大通chase的银行账户。有变化会以后慢慢更新（2013年4月13日）。 World first 申请资料： 全球销售卖家海外银行账号申请指导手册 Instructionfor Global Selling Seller Apply Oversea Bank Account 使用说明： 1、 本手册包含三个模板 1) 身份证翻译模板；2) 营业执照翻译模板；3) 信用卡账单翻译模板 。 2、 身份证翻译请根据真实信息填写模板。(该部分请参考 模板1) 3、 营业执照翻译 需要中英文对照，请根据真实信息填写模板。(该部分请参考 模板2) 4、 信用卡账单需提供最近3个月的账单。姓名、地址需要翻译成英文。(该部分请参考 模板3) 5、 重要：三个模板中所出现的姓名应保持一致（即身份证、营业执照法人、信用卡账单中的姓名需要一致）。 6、 所有资料的真实性由卖家负责。申请速度取决于资料的真实性及完整性。 7、 本手册仅供卖家通过 World First 申请海外银行账号参考使用，具体条款请以 World First 为准。 申请流程： 1、 点击下载账号申请表 并填写(您需要安装AdobeAcrobat Reader)； 2、 将1) 账号申请表 2) 身份证翻译 3) 营业执照翻译 4) 信用卡账单翻译 打印、扫描后，连同5) 营业执照原件扫描件、6)信用卡账单扫描件，一同发送到 accountopening@worldfirst.com进行账号申请； 3、 邮件标题请遵照如下格式： Apply US Bank Account forAmazon Global Selling Business - Beijing ABC Jewelry Co., Ltd(申请美国账号请用该标题，下划线部分自己公司名称替换)； Apply UK Bank Account forAmazon Global Selling Business - Beijing ABC Jewelry Co., Ltd(申请英国账号请用该标题，下划线部分自己公司名称替换)； 同时申请两个国家的银行账号请使用 ApplyUS & UK Bank Accountfor Amazon Global Selling Business - Beijing ABC Jewelry Co., Ltd 4、 World First 相关资讯请访问其链接 World First； 5、 账号申请免费，提款费用信息请访问WorldFirst网站查看 费用信息； 6、 点击下载AdobeAcrobat Reader 。 发送文件检查清单： 1、 账号申请表(下载填写打印)； 2、 模板1、模板2、模板3； 3、 营业执照副本； 4、 信用卡账单(最近3个月账单，只需要账单第一页有姓名、地址、还款金额那页) 以上文件打印、扫描后，一同发送到账号申请邮箱。相应信息参见操作流程。 备注：该页不需要提供给World First, 供卖家参考使用。 模板1 身份证翻译 Template 1 ID Card Translation 第一部分 Part1Copy of ID Card (请插入申请人身份证正反面扫描件) 身份证扫描件 第二部分Part 2 ID Card Information (填写身份证英文信息) Pin Yin Name Wang Xiaodong 国籍Nationality Chinese 性别Sex Male 生日DOB Apr. 20, 2019 颁发日Issue Date Apr. 21, 1999 证件号ID card # 650000199911110015 有效期 Valid Period Apr. 21, 1999 - Apr. 20, 2019 or Permanent(永久有效) 地址Address RM 3, BLD 4, ABC Rd., CD City, Beijing, China 模板2 企业法人营业执照翻译 Template 2 Translation ofBUSINESS LICENSE OF THE ENTERPRISE LEGAL PERSON (备注：中文内容按照营业执照实际内容填写，英文翻译按照中文内容正确翻译) 1. 副本（副本号：1-1） a.

CONGRATULATIONS TO JACK SHENG!

As of today, the green shooting star above will only look familiar to a few individuals around the world… it represents a Feedback score of 500,000. The “Sweating Star” (as I like to call it) on the right is familiar to only one person, Jack Sheng, as it represents a Feedback score of 1,000,000 (something he has achieved not once, not twice, but four times!). I guess the “sweat” represents how hard it is to accomplish such an amazing feat. The stars will be unveiled at the San Jose campuses today when the company welcomes Jack to our offices to celebrate in his remarkable achievement.

The following was posted on the eBay internal blog and it tells a pretty incredible story of hard work, entrepreneurship and perseverance…

IT ALL STARTED ABOUT EIGHT YEARS AGO IN A GARAGE IN ARCADIA, CALIF., WHERE JACK SHENG AND HIS TWO BEST FRIENDS, ALVIN AND EUGENE, DECIDED TO TEST THE E-COMMERCE WATERS BY SELLING ELECTRONICS ACCESSORIES ON EBAY.THE THREE 25 YEAR OLDS, WHO HAD KNOWN EACH OTHER SINCE THEY WERE 12, ALL HAD FULL-TIME JOBS. THEY THOUGHT THEY MIGHT BE ABLE TO BRING IN SOME EXTRA MONEY BY RESELLING GOODS ON EBAY, SO THEY GAVE IT A SHOT.

THEY STARTED WITH A $500 INVESTMENT IN CELL PHONE AND ELECTRONICS ACCESSORIES, WHICH THEY BEGAN SELLING RIGHT AWAY. BEFORE THEY KNEW IT, THEY WERE SELLING 200-300 ITEMS PER DAY AND HAD HIRED A FEW FRIENDS FROM THEIR CHURCH TO HELP PACKAGE AND SHIP THE ITEMS. EFORCITY, AS THE COMPANY WAS CALLED, FOCUSED ON SELLING SMALL, LOWER-PRICED ITEMS LIKE CELL PHONE, CAMERA AND ELECTRONICS ACCESSORIES, WHICH KEPT COSTS AND THE NEED FOR SPACE TO A MINIMUM. STILL, IN LESS THAN A YEAR THEY HAD TO RENT AN OFFICE TO KEEP UP WITH DEMAND.

IN 2002, THE TRIO ATTENDED EBAY’S E-COMMERCE FORUM, WHERE THEY MET FORMER EBAY CEO MEG WHITMAN, EBAY FOUNDER PIERRE OMIDYAR AND SEVERAL OF EBAY’S TOP SELLERS. THEY NETWORKED, SHARED KEY LEARNINGS AND ASKED QUESTIONS OF THE OTHER SELLERS. THEY QUICKLY RECOGNIZED THAT THEY ALREADY HAD MORE FEEDBACK STARS THAN ANY OF THE OTHER SELLERS (50,000 AND COUNTING!). MORE IMPORTANTLY, HOWEVER, THEY REALIZED THAT THE OPPORTUNITY TO GROW EFORCITY WAS ALMOST LIMITLESS, AS LONG AS THEY COULD CONTINUE TO FIND WAYS TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL VALUE FOR THEIR CUSTOMERS.

EFORCITY: THE 90TH FASTEST-GROWING COMPANY IN THE U.S.
IT WAS AROUND THIS TIME THAT JACK, ALVIN AND EUGENE DECIDED TO LEAVE THEIR FULL-TIME JOBS AND DEDICATE THEMSELVES COMPLETELY TO EFORCITY. THEY DRAFTED A BUSINESS PLAN, MOVED INTO A BIGGER OFFICE AND BEGAN LOOKING FOR WAYS TO ADD VALUE TO THEIR PRODUCTS. JACK STARTING KNOCKING ON THE DOORS OF MANUFACTURERS IN CHINA, IN HOPES OF SETTING UP DIRECT RELATIONSHIPS WITH THE MAKERS OF THE PRODUCTS THEY SOLD. WHILE IT WAS TOUGH AT FIRST (THE MANUFACTURERS ONLY WANTED TO DEAL WITH WELL-KNOWN DISTRIBUTION COMPANIES), JACK WAS ABLE TO SHOW THEM THAT HE HAD A THRIVING EBAY BUSINESS AND HE WAS WORTH DOING BUSINESS WITH.

TODAY, JACK AND HIS PARTNERS HAVE ESTABLISHED DIRECT RELATIONSHIPS WITH MORE THAN 100 MANUFACTURERS IN CHINA, AND IN MANY CASES THEY HELP INFLUENCE THE DESIGN OF THE PRODUCTS THEY SELL BASED ON CUSTOMER FEEDBACK RECEIVED THROUGH EBAY. EFORCITY NOW OFFERS A WIDE SELECTION OF CELL PHONE, MP3, PRINTER, DIGITAL CAMERA, PDA, HDTV (HDMI CABLE), AND BLUETOOTH ACCESSORIES.

IN 2006, INC. MAGAZINE NAMED EFORCITY CORP. THE 90TH FASTEST-GROWING COMPANY IN THE UNITED STATES ON THE FAMOUS “INC. 500” LIST. TODAY, EFORCITY IS ONE OF THE LARGEST EBAY RETAILERS FOR HIGH TECH GADGETS, GROSSING MORE THAN $40 MILLION IN ANNUAL REVENUE. THE COMPANY HAS ALMOST 200 EMPLOYEES WORKING AROUND THE CLOCK AND AROUND THE WORLD, SHIPPING 25,000 – 30,000 ORDERS PER DAY.

“IN JUST EIGHT SHORT YEARS WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GROW OUR BUSINESS FROM A MERE IDEA INTO A REALITY THAT FAR EXCEEDS OUR ORIGINAL EXPECTATIONS OF SUCCESS,” SAID JACK.

LISTENING TO YOUR CUSTOMER
HE CREDITS MUCH OF THIS SUCCESS TO THE DEDICATION HE AND HIS PARTNERS HAVE TO PROVIDING A GOOD CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE. BEING ABLE TO COLLECT FEEDBACK AND ACT ON IT IN REAL TIME, HE EXPLAINS, HAS ALLOWED EFORCITY TO EVOLVE ACCORDING TO CUSTOMER NEEDS AND STAY ONE STEP AHEAD OF THE COMPETITION.

“EVERY SMALL-BUSINESS OWNER SHOULD DEVELOP A SYSTEM FOR COLLECTING FEEDBACK FROM THEIR CLIENTS,” HE ADDS. “IT CAN MEAN THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A $3 MILLION BUSINESS AND A $30 MILLION BUSINESS.”

HE ALSO ATTRIBUTES HIS SUCCESS TO A GREAT PARTNERSHIP WITH EBAY. “WE’VE LEARNED SO MUCH BY WORKING CLOSELY WITH THE INTERNAL TEAMS AT EBAY. EBAY EMPLOYEES SHOULD BE PROUD OF THE POSITIVE IMPACT THEY HAVE ON PEOPLE’S LIVES.”

WHEN ASKED HOW HE WOULD ADVISE OTHER EBAY SELLERS AND ENTREPRENEURS LOOKING FOR SUCCESS, JACK ENCOURAGED BUSINESS OWNERS TO GET OBJECTIVE FEEDBACK ON THEIR IDEAS FROM OTHERS.

“ONE OF THE TOUGHEST PARTS OF BEING AN ENTREPRENEUR IS THAT THERE’S NO ONE TO BOUNCE IDEAS OFF OF AND GIVE YOU FEEDBACK. HAVING THREE PARTNERS HAS BEEN CRITICAL TO OUR SUCCESS – THERE’S NEVER AN EVEN SPLIT ON DECISIONS SO IT’S EASY FOR US TO DECIDE ON THE PATH TO TAKE. IF YOU DON’T HAVE A PARTNER, SEEK OUTSIDE COUNSEL. TRY TO SELF-EVALUATE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE AND ASK OTHERS TO GIVE YOU FEEDBACK ON YOUR PLANS AND TOUGH DECISIONS. IT WILL GREATLY IMPROVE YOUR SUCCESS.”

JACK IS LOOKING FORWARD TO CONTINUED GROWTH OF THE BUSINESS. HE NOTES THAT WHILE MANY BUSINESSES SEE SLOWED GROWTH DURING AN ECONOMIC SLOWDOWN, IN HIS EXPERIENCE, EBAY SELLERS ALWAYS FARE BETTER. PEOPLE COME TO EBAY FOR DEALS, HE NOTES, MAKING IT A GREAT PLACE TO SHOP WHEN BUDGETS ARE TIGHT.

I realize Jack’s schedule will be pretty tight when he pays a visit to our campus later today but it would be great to get the opportunity to shake his hand and congratulate him on a truly amazing achievement.

Cheers,
RBH

JOHN AND JACK

JACK SEES STARS

Nearing 1 million Feedback with three accounts

High-tech retailer and eBay giant Jack Sheng is closing in on another milestone—eforcity is about to become his third eBay account with a Feedback score of over 1 million. His other accounts with more than a million are everydaysource and accstation. 

Eight years ago, Sheng and his partners Eugene Wong and Alvin Wong started their eBay business out of Sheng's garage. He and his partners now have 180 employees and offices in El Monte (California), China and Hong Kong, and are generating $30 million a year in revenue. 

Sheng feels his 98.8% Feedback rating is one factor in his growth and success. "Although buyers may not know me, they understand from my Feedback rating that I am dependable. 

"We charge actual shipping and handling costs and offer free and subsidized shipping deals."

An even bigger factor is undoubtedly Sheng's commitment to exceptional customer service, a commitment paying off in increasingly high detailed seller ratings (DSRs). In the past month he's maintained a solid 4.8 for Shipping Costs-a full 2 point increase over his 12-month average. 

To achieve this, Sheng tested a variety of pricing structures and established one that works for his bottom line and DSRs. He found that offering free shipping not only boosted his DSRs but resulted in a spike in sales. "It's all about trying different methods and finding what works for you." 

What's Sheng's next goal? Not surprisingly, he wants to reach 2 million Feedback faster than he accomplished 1

Choosing a Marketplace – Where to Sell Online

Choosing a Marketplace – Where to Sell Online

Thursday, April 26th, 2012 by admin

Having a web presence is essential in this day and age where ecommerce is such a prevalent part of business. One of the first steps to establishing such a presence is by having a website that showcases your products. However, simply creating a website does not mean that you are automatically going to have buyers flocking to your site and sales flowing in. Search engine optimization (SEO) and linkbuilding are important strategies to help you get some traffic, as is using social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter. Another easy way to get your product and business brand in front of many eyeballs is to list products on online marketplaces.
When exploring which online marketplaces you might like to try, there are some essential criteria to look at. They are:

• Cost
• Traffic and Popularity Ranking
• Permitting links back to your website
• Public seller profile

There are over 60 marketplaces in our directory that are free to list products on, and of those, more than half are completely free (no selling commissions, monthly subscriptions, etc.). If you are on a tight budget or just starting up, cost may be the most important factor for you. However, not all free marketplaces are created equally. It is important to also check the sites traffic and popularity ranking, because if no one is browsing these marketplaces, what difference does it make if it is free or not?
Marketplacester shows you the Alexa ranking and the Google PageRank of each marketplace.This is the ranking from the Alexa service, which ranks the popularity of websites on the internet against each other. For example, an Alexa rank of 1 means it is the most popular trafficked site on the internet. The major marketplaces will be in the top 1000 Alexa rankings, while websites with medium levels of traffic will be much higher. This field can be used to measure the relative traffic and popularity of any particular marketplace as compared to any other. The lower the Alexa rank is, the better visibility and traffic the website has.
The Google PageRank is the ranking that Google gives to the specific marketplace domain name, and is a beneficial feature to know when evaluating a marketplace. It will range from 0-10, and the higher number indicates a higher value site with higher traffic volumes. If you are looking for more popular marketplaces with higher traffic volumes, or if you are trying to build your own Search Engine Optimization through your marketplace listings, look for those with a higher PageRank value.
Another factor to evaluate is whether or not a marketplace allows you to link back to your website from your product listings. This provides an advantage to you as a seller by directing buyers to your primary website to purchase from you directly. It also aids in your Search Engine Optimization and search rankings by providing a valuable link from a related site, further increasing your visibility in search engines through link building. Many of the larger sites, and any that have selling commissions do not allow this however, as it takes away from money they would otherwise be earning.
Many marketplaces will give you a public merchant profile page when you create your account as a seller. This can add value to you as a merchant in several ways, providing an additional web presence for your store and business as a reputable seller online. In addition, it can potentially give you a SEO advantage by providing content about your business name and other keywords on another external website. This field in the directory tells you quickly whether or not the particular marketplace provides you with a publicly available merchant profile that you can use and reference.
You will probably not find any sites that meet all of these criteria, but knowing the important factors to look for will help you determine which ones might be worthwhile for you and your business. Since long term commitments are not required, there is no harm in experimenting until you find the right fit for you.
Review all online marketplaces for free and easily see all of the above factors for every online marketplace with Marketplacester’s free directory of online marketplaces.

How to Find the Most Profitable Marketplace to Sell Your Items

Online retailers are experiencing a huge shift in moving from giant marketplaces like eBay and Amazon to smaller, more boutique and community-orientated marketplaces such as ArtFire, RubyLane, Addoway and Bonanza.

I’ve seen a lot of these spring up in the past few years, but only in the last two years or so, have I really started being impressed by some of the options these emerging marketplaces offer. Now is definitely a great time to check them out because a lot of sellers – including SaleHoo members  - are really hitting the right market and making an impressive amount of sales when they start selling on these sites.

So where can you find new marketplaces to try out, and how do you know if they are any good?

The Exciting New Tool Allowing You to Find the Best Marketplace

This month, eCommerceBytes launched a new feature called Ratings and Reviews for online sellers. The Ratings and Review feature provides a platform for you to get unbiased reviews on marketplaces before you spend time (and/or money) listing your items there.

The new rating system allows users to rate marketplaces and auction sites on performance, reliability ease of use, customer service and value. Reviewers can also leave written comments to tell you all about their experience using the marketplace.

eCommerceBytes’ Ratings and Reviews also allows you to review and view ratings for inventory management systems, payment services, storefronts and carts, shipping services, email list hosting, and consignment services.

Pretty cool, huh?

Now you can get a snapshot of what other users are saying about these service providers before you sign up to use them yourself!

The new ratings system is starting to gain traction and is getting more reviews every day so I recommend that you check it our yourself and review what others have to say, and rate your own experiences to share with others.

Want to know my pick for the very best marketplaces on the web? I recently went undercover and posed as a brand new seller: I created new accounts on 5 of the top marketplaces and tested them for profitability, customer services, fees and more. To find out which marketplace came out on top, you need to become a member of my new product, Online Selling Tactics by SaleHoo. Check it out here.

What is drop shipping?
Drop shipping is a business model in which the retailer benefits from selling products to customers then ordering products from drop shipping providers (e.g. DX). The only thing you need to do is pass the orders to DX. Customers will receive the ordered products directly from DX. This process minimizes the risk to you, you don’t need to buy the product until it has been sold. DX takes care of the warehousing, packaging and shipping of products, saving you money and time. Your profit in the transaction is the difference between the DX and your retail prices of the items sold.

How does drop shipping benefit you?

Drop Shipping is an easy way for you to start earning profit by selling quality products. By listing our products on your website and taking advantage of Drop Shipping, you will:

• Become a worldwide e-commerce retailer at a low cost with no risk.
• Offer a wide selection of products without the need to purchase or store inventory.
• Select product types on DX.com and determine your own retail prices and profit.
• Have your products packaged and shipped to your customers by us at no extra cost.

How to do drop shipping with DX?

For Single orders:

• Sell DX products on your own webstore/eBay;
• Select product(s) on DX.com and add to shopping cart;
• Click “Add Drop Shipping Service ” on shopping cart page;
• Submit the order and finish the payment,remrember to set the shipping address as your customer’s;
• DX will prepare your order and ship out to your customer directly.

For Mass orders:

• Download the catalog from DX Dropship Partner:DXbay.com;
• Sell on your own webstore/eBay
• Create a CSV document (e.g) with necessary information that DXBAY requires;
• Upload your CSV file in DXBAY and finish the payment.
• DX will prepare your order(s) and ship out to your customer(s) directly.

如何免费获得美国电话号码

在注册或使用一些国外服务时（例如VoIP），时常会需要美国电话号码。依照下文步骤，5分钟内即可利用CallCentric+IPKall注册一个虚拟的美国电话号码。

 

1.注册一个CallCentric.com免 费帐号。CallCentric会发送验证邮件，打开注册邮箱点击验证链接。CallCentric会提示要你填国家，城市以及区号。我第一次注册时写的 中国地址，注册后在帐号里出现个很大很大的欺诈提示，网站说暂时冻结了拨打电话的功能，只能接电话，后来我按提示发了个ticket，很快客服回复邮件解 除了限制。用美国地址是没有任何提示的，为免麻烦，就如下图写Google的地址吧 :)

  

点继续后，会跳出来很黄很黄的一个提示问你是不是新来的？直接选择“Go to My CallCentric” 注册完成后大致如下图

在这个界面的左上角Username下面有一行Callcentric #，以1777开头的数字，复制这串数字，接下来还需要这串数字。 

2.打开IPKall网站，Choose your account type选择SIP；Choose Area Code for your IPKall Number就是选择电话区号，我选择了425，这里自己选择即可；SIP username粘贴上一步中最后复制的数字；Hostname or IP address填in.callcentric.com；Email Address和Password就填上一步注册CallCentric时用的邮箱和密码。然后点Submit。一分钟内就能收到IPKall的邮件，邮 件里面的IPKall phone number就是你申请到的美国电话号码。

3.IPKall发来的电话号码还需要SIP客户端激活一下才能使用。到Express Talk官方网站下载并安装Express Talk。下载时注意点击下图位置的链接，下载免费版本，其他链接都是商用版，试用期过后就无效了。

接下来安装Express Talk。安装时会弹出下图提示是否安装其他程序，全部去掉勾即可。

 

 

 

接下来的安装选项全部默认下一步即可，到SIP帐号设置这一步时，第一行昵称随便写；第二行服务器地址写callcentric.com；第三行SIP号 码写第一步中得到的1777打头的号码；最后一行密码也填第一步时注册用的密码。继续点下一步，Express Talk会配置客户端网络连接。一分钟后即会弹出拨号框。这时你的美国号码已经配置完成，刷新CallCentric的后台页面，你会发现左上角出现 Your Phone is Registered的提示，如下图。



你可以通过Android手机配置SIP客户端来免费接听网络电话，你甚至可以利用这个美国虚拟号注册Google Voice，来免费与美国和加拿大通话及发短信。

注意：

1. Ipkall美国虚拟号是使用人数最多的虚拟号，可以无限免费接听电话，而且每个月只要能打通它一次，就可以长期免费使用。
Ipkall号码回收政策:
1. 如果号码在30天内未有任何应答通话
2.如果注册邮箱返回无法投递错误
3.如果你恶意滥用Ipkall号码

2. 这个美国号码只能通过配置网络电话客户端来免费接听全球电话，不能拨打电话。你可以通过这个号码申请Google Voice。Google Voice无限免费拨打美国及加拿大号码，无限免费发送短信给美国和加拿大号码，无限免费接收全球电话及短信。膜拜Google～

In the top right hand corner of every panel is a little icon that reveals a fly-out menu, giving additional options that you might not have seen before. You can use this menu to set your layer panel thumbnails to be larger, crop to artwork and much more - experiment!

02. Paste in Place

Paste in Place is one of those functions that you'll use all the time if you know about it, but if you don’t it will come as a revelation! After you’ve made a selection either in your current document, or in a second document if you’re combining artwork, copy as usual by choosing Edit > Copy, or by using the shortcut keys Ctrl+C (Windows) or Cmd+C(Mac). Once you’re viewing the document you want to paste into, use the shortcut keys Ctrl+Shift+V (Windows) or Cmd+Shift+V (Mac).

03. Bird's Eye View

If you’re doing detailed work such as cloning or edge refinement, it can be easy to lose sight of the bigger picture. Equally, if you’re working at a high zoom level, navigating around the document can become tiresome when you need to get back to your high-level zoom. With the Bird’s Eye View feature, when zoomed in you can press and hold the Hkey on your keyboard, and click and drag with your mouse to temporarily zoom out to a bird’s eye view. When you let go, you’ll zoom back in to the level you were working at.

04. Interactively set styles

Move the shadow around by clicking and dragging on the canvas

When you’re adding a drop-shadow layer style, move the dialogue box to one side. By clicking and dragging on the canvas you can use your mouse to interactively move the shadow around relative to the layer casting the shadow.

05. Repeat Transformations

Once you’ve made a transformation to a layer or object using Edit > Transform, you can very quickly repeat that same transformation on another layer or object. Simply press Cmd+Shift+T on a Mac, orCtrl+Shift+T on Windows, and Photoshop will repeat the same transformation on the currently active layer.

06. Solo your layer

Here's how to preview a single layer

If you’d like to preview a single layer, you can quickly get a look at it on its own by Alt+clicking on the layer’s eye icon in the layers panel.Alt+clicking on the eye icon again will return you to the previous layer visibility state. Note that if you accidentally click on another layer’s eye icon you’ll lose the ability to revert back to the previous state.

07. Enable visibility history

Enable the history state for layer visibility

If you want to avoid the problem of losing layer visibility settings while previewing individual layers, you can tick a setting in the History Panel options dialogue box that will enable history state for layer visibility. Once checked, you can use Cmd/Ctrl+Alt+Z to step backwards through your history as you always have, but you’ll find changes to the visibility of layers is now included within that history.

08. Merge vector shapes

Merge two vector shapes together and keep the result as an editable vector

If you’re lucky enough to have Photoshop CS6 at your disposal, you can merge two vector shapes together and keep the result as an editable vector. Simply select the two shape layers and hit Cmd/Ctrl+E on your keyboard to merge them together. In previous versions this would have resulted in a rasterized layer, but Adobe have updated the functionality for CS6.

09. Quickly finish editing text

Press Cmd+Return on your keyboard to finish editing text and move focus outside the text field

When you’re working with text boxes in Photoshop it can be frustrating to move between tools as your shortcut keys won’t work. A great little secret tip is that you can press Cmd+Return on your keyboard to finish editing text and move focus outside the text field. This allows you to quickly select other tools using their shortcut keys as appropriate (e.g. V for the move tool).

10. Organise your files properly

It's easy to become sloppy with the way you name and organise files. But if you have to hand over your work to others, this can rebound on you, giving you a bad rep as people struggle to work out what's going on. Follow our advice on how to organise your files properly here.

11. Draw dotted lines with the brush

Drawing straight dotted lines with the brush tool is a neat trick

A common Photoshop technique is to use the brush tool to draw straight lines. With the brush tool selected click to place a point, then hold down Shift+click at a second point to draw a straight line between the two points. You may not know that you can open the brush panel and set the brush spacing to 150%+ to draw a dotted line instead of a solid one!

12. Change brush size and hardness

It's quite well known that you can use the square bracket keys [ and ]to change the size of your brush inside Photoshop. What you may not know is that if you hold down the Shift key while tapping these same keys, you can also affect the hardness of the brush without having to visit the the brush panel!

13. Reset dialogue boxes

When you're using a dialogue box with a pair of buttons that read OK/Apply and Cancel, it can be frustrating to undo changes you've made. Often you'll want to hit Cancel and then re-open the dialogue. Many of these modal pop-ups allow you to hold down the Alt/Opt key on your keyboard to change the Cancel button to a Reset button, returning the settings to how they were when you opened the dialogue.

14. Scrub values

One of the best time-saving features in Photoshop is the ability to scrub your mouse over input values. If you want to change the opacity of a layer, for example, rather than click into the opacity field of the layers panel, click and drag on the value for opacity. A scrub to the left reduces the opacity, a scrub to the right increases it.

15. Copy layer styles quickly

As well as copying a layer to a new layer, you can do the same with layer styles

If you've been using Photoshop for a while you'll know you can copy a layer to a new layer by holding down Alt/Opt and dragging a copy of the artwork across the canvas. You can use this same trick for layer styles: simply hold down the Alt/Opt key and drag the FX icon in the layers panel from the layer with the styles to the target layer - the styles will be copied right over!

16. Open a document quickly

Rather than navigate to File > Open to open a document, double-click on the pasteboard inside Photoshop (the bit outside the main canvas) to automatically bring up the Open dialog box. Inside recent versions, this trick only works when you don't have another document open.

17. Close documents quickly

You can also close your documents quickly. You're probably familiar with the shortcut combination Ctrl+F4 (Windows) or Cmd+W(Mac). This closes the current document, but if you add a second modifier key you can automatically close every document. Hold downShift+Ctrl+F4 on a PC, or Alt+Cmd+W on a Mac to close all open documents. If you have multiple documents with changes you'd like to discard, check the Apply to All box when choosing Don't Save to avoid having to confirm each document.

18. Share with friends and colleagues

Share your screen with colleagues or friends easily in Photoshop

One of the nicer features that arrived recently in Photoshop is the ability to share your screen with other users. Choose File > Share My Screen and log in with your Acrobat.com username/password. Your web browser will open and a new online meeting will be set up automatically to which you can invite friends and colleagues. You'll be able to chat, share webcam footage and your screen to make for productive collaboration - even if you're the opposite side of the globe to your friends.

19. Quickly change measuring units

When you open a new document in Photoshop you can set the measuring units to match your needs, but sometimes you'll need to switch between different units. The normal way to change is to select the options Photoshop > Preferences > Units & Rulers (or, on a PC, Edit > Preferences > Units & Rulers). But there is a quicker way! Just right-click on a ruler (Cmd+R/Ctrl+R will show your rulers if they're not already visible) and choose the new measuring unit you need.

20. Fill with scripted patterns

Pattern fill includes handy Scripted Pattern option

Photoshop CS6 introduces a new pattern fill option based on a script. First isolate an object on a transparent background and define it as a pattern (Edit > Define Pattern). Next, access the fill command as you normally would (Edit > Fill or Shift+F5). Choose Pattern as the fill type, then select your isolated object from the patterns drop-down.

Finally, tick the Scripted Patterns checkbox and choose one of the options from the predefined scripts. All bar spiral will add a colour and brightness shift randomly to your object as part of the fill operation. You can also write your own scripts to use in this dialogue!

21. Insert Lorem Ipsum

Use placeholder text to help utilise text boxes

A small new feature that will help save time when you're producing mockups inside Photoshop is the handy new Lorem Ipsum function. Select the type tool and draw an area type box by clicking and dragging out a selection. Now choose Type > Paste Lorem Ipsum to automatically fill your type area with faux Latin text.

22. Use space to move selections

Once you've made a selection inside Photoshop using any of the standard tools, such as the marquee tools, you can easily move it around on your canvas. Simply hold down the space bar and use the selection tool you've got active to move the selection around.

23. History Snapshots

Snapshots ensure you can return to any point in the history of your work

If you're accustomed to using the history feature in Photoshop when you've made a mistake or want to back-track a few steps, this tip will allow you to take complete control of your artwork. Open the history panel, and click on the camera icon each time you reach a milestone in your artwork. This will create a history snapshot that you can return to at any point. Snapshots can also be used as the source for the history art brush!

24. Style text easily

If you're lucky enough to be using Photoshop CS6, you can take advantage of a great new feature that makes it simple to achieve consistent text styling. The latest version of Photoshop introduces paragraph and character styles. Choose Window > Paragraph Styles to open the panel, then click on the new style icon to create a new style. Double-click on the style to set font, colour, leading, kerning, open type features and hyphenation options. To apply to text, simply highlight the text and click on the desired style.

25. Apply blending modes simultaneously

If you're rocking CS6, a new feature that can save a bit of time is the ability to set blending modes for multiple layers simultaneously. You could always do this with opacity, but it's only with CS6 you can select more than one layer (by holding down the Cmd/Ctrl key and clicking on each layer in turn inside the layers panel) and change the blending mode for all selected layers at the same time.

26. Crop non-destructively

Your cropped areas need not vanish into the ether with CS6

Another nice addition to CS6 is the ability to crop without throwing away the bits of image outside your crop area. Choose the crop tool and uncheck the new Delete cropped pixels checkbox. Now when you apply your crop, the areas of image outside the crop will simply be hidden for later retrieval. To get access to the area outside your crop, simply choose the crop tool again and change your crop accordingly.

27. Hide other layers quickly

You can quickly get a preview of the current layer by turning off all other layers without losing track of which layers were visible and which were hidden. To do so, hold down the Alt/Opt key and click once on the eyeball icon in the layers panel for the layer you want to isolate. When you Alt/Opt and click again, the other layers will switch back on again, remembering which you had hidden.

28. Quickly create 3D extrusions

3D extrusions can now be easily added using CS6's new tool

You can now add punch to your titles using 3D extrusions in Photoshop CS6. The 3D interface has been overhauled to make it more friendly to non-3D modellers, and it's now really easy to create high-quality, textured 3D type by simply creating a type layer and choosing 3D > New 3D Extrusion from selected layer. Shadows and reflections are easier to control too, making it a great way to create engaging display type in a hurry.

29. Use actions for common tasks

One of the most powerful features in Photoshop is its ability to record macros of common tasks, allowing you to automate mundane manipulation work. Open the actions panel to see a list of pre-defined actions that can be run. Click the New button at the bottom of the panel to record your own action!

30. Add selective focus

Blur gallery in Photoshop CS6 has made adding focus easier

With the new blur gallery in CS6 you can selectively blur and, by extension, add focus to your image. Individual focus points can be added to your image, with the amount of blur, fall off and iris size all edited directly on the canvas using the HUD. You can also add special effects such as lens bokeh with ease, making it simple to draw attention to the parts of an image you're interested in.

海外购常见尺码对照表

海外购经常会遇到尺码问题，海外购不像国内的B2C商城可以货到付款，无理由退货。买错尺码的话基本上只能送人了。“什么值得买”整理了相关资料，以帮助网友们下单时尽量正确的选择自己的尺码。需要注意：1、同国内情况类似，国外的尺码也比较混乱，各个品牌的尺码换算不尽相同，本文选取的是互联网上较为流行的版本。2、无论是参与国内的抢购还是参与海外购，熟知自己的身高（衣码）、腰围（裤码）、脚长（鞋码）是必须的。

1、牛仔裤尺码

牛仔裤尺码通常会标识W**L**字样，前者表示腰围，后者表示裤长，例如W29L30，通常可以按腰围选购。有一个简单的计算方法：女性的腰围两字+6，例如1尺9，即19+7=26码。男性的腰围两字+7~9，例如2尺6，即26+8=34码，腰围越大加的数字越大。更新：还有个精确的算法，用你的腰围*13.1再四舍五入即可得到准确的尺码。例如2尺2的腰，2.2*13.1=28.8=29码。具体的换算见下表：

2、衣服尺码

美版的衣服尺码使用了和国内相同的S（Small）、M（Medium）、L（Large）+X（eXtreme）的标识方法，但其代表的衣服大小与国内的惯例不同，通常会大一个甚至几个号。不同类型的服装尺码会有所不同，不同品牌的尺码也有较大差异，下面是较为通用的尺码表，网友们可以根据自己的胸围或者腰围选取最接近的尺码：

3、鞋子尺码

鞋子尺码是最为混乱的。中国尺码和欧码是一致的，可以使用公式计算出来，具体为脚长值（mm）/5-10。例如230/5-10=36码。美码没有一个完美的公式可以计算，各个品牌均有自己的转换表，不同品牌的差异可能非常大。基本的规律是，美码和英码每0.5为一档，同一尺寸英码比美码小1-2号，美码大致上可以用0.75*欧码-23来计算。

名鞋库网站上有部分品牌的尺码转换表，可以对号入座试试看。但此表不完全与其他鞋类B2C网站提供的尺码表完全一致，因此还是仅供参考。表格较大，点击后可在新页面查看大图。

4、眼镜尺码

眼镜通常会使用三个数字标识尺码，例如55/14/135mm，这三个数字分别代表镜框尺寸、鼻梁尺寸和镜腿尺寸。镜框尺寸：镜框所在平面垂直线中点处，镜圈两边内侧之间的距离。鼻梁尺寸：镜架鼻梁所在水平线上的最宽距离。镜腿尺寸：从镜架铰链中心到镜腿末端的伸直距离。大家经常网购的墨镜/防风镜/蛤蟆镜没有度数，是不需要瞳距的。网购选择眼镜尺寸时可以根据自己现有的眼镜和想要达到的效果进行计算，到实体店试戴也是个不错的方法。
