I have also heard they can be very profitable I was just curious if you guys knew anything about them and what type of investment is required as far as time and money goes.

Tread very carefully, because it may be a scam. To be a legal "franchise", Ebay would have to be a "franchisor" and it would be subject to very strict Federal and state requirements. Maybe the emailers are using the word "franchise" in a generic way. In that case, I haven't heard anything about it, but if it sounds too good to be true, blah blah blah ...
