Ebay can be a great way to earn extra money, but it takes a lot of work to make full time income at it. The key is finding the right niche to concentrate on. Can you make $1,000 a month selling books. Yes, but they aren't going to be the everyday ones you have lying around the house. You will have to find sources and learn a bit about collector books and limited editions that can bring in nice sums. Our
Online auction guide can give some helpful hints.
My basic opinion is that the other auction sites are not worth the trouble. They just don't have enough buyers to make it worthwhile, at least for the collectible items I sell. Others may have a different opinion.
