Now personally as friends and family hear about eBay they normally come to me for advice, How do I use this feature?, How do I sell this item?, What am I doing wrong? Where do I start? And I'm not just talking about people unfamiliar with net or e-commerce.

I have friends who work within IT industry and they are ones who call me most often! Computer technicians, Network consultants, even company directors of IT firms. It seems that over years of selling on eBay surprisingly we've gained quite a rare skill.

People are slowly realizing that they can turn to eBay to make some extra cash and get rid of some unwanted junk at same time. In last few months I've helped friends and family sell cars, wedding dresses, suites, televisions, videos... I could go on but I'm guessing you may be familiar with a similar situation already.

In fact look though eBay now and see how long it takes you before you see a listing containing following text

"This item is being sold on behalf of a friend so please contact her with any questions on:07500xxx000"

It won't be too long before you find a similar statement.

Although people are increasingly turning to eBay for bargains, majority of users are only buying and do not open a selling account. Lets be honest, I expect you've used eBay in past and I'm sure if your reading this that you've even sold items on it. It's not hard is it?

There are three specific reasons why I believe eBay is greatest opportunity online to make extra cash or even build up your sales to make a full time online career.

Everyone's Equal.

On eBay everyone's equal. All users no matter what your status, bank balance or feedback is - everyone gets exactly same opportunity to sell their item, starting with a blank description form.
