The Most Successful Home-Based eBay Sellers

from the quite-a-job dept

You knew that there were people out there who just sat home all day, every day, selling stuff on eBay, but did you know what their life is like? Here’s an article looking at the most successful small-business eBay seller, a husband and wife team that buys truckloads of used CDs from music stores who can’t unload them, puts them up on eBay starting at $0.01 a piece, and waits for the money to roll in. The business is marginally successful, making them enough money to keep going, but the lifestyle is demanding (to say the least). They work all day, everyday, and have taken a total of 4 days of vacation over the past three years.
