The seventh level of the bowls of hell traumabunny is an unknown
Default Starting an E-Bay buisness

Just opened up a second account at my bank to be used for debit/paypal transactions. Ordered a shitload of boxes (free), and I am going out to buy auctioned storage lots, and sell the stuff inside. I am hoping that this will at least pull in some cash on the side.
Right now where I stand cashwise needs help.
$1,000 CD with a 6% interest rate
$354 in the bank
$500 E-bond ( I am going to let those mature more though)

With the extra money I can skim each week I hope to be able to invest in gold.

Anymore tips I should know?

With the storage lots, i'd say be sure you know what your bidding on before you do. Obvious, but still.

Also, visit some garage sales, thift stores and the like.

If you get serious you can make considerably more than you have right now.

Their is no certain way of knowing what you'll get in a storage auction. Your buying the lot ( which includes all the other persons crap they left) Some go for 5-25 dollars, and even lower in some cases. It really depends on how mny bidders their are, and how much they think it's a hit.
You can make of with a kings ransom in E-bay value for little over 10 bucks.
