Jay Leno used to have a thing for stuff found on ebay and some of the items that sold are just rediculous. Yet it happens. Good luck making a fortune.   10-22-2009, 01:35 PM   #9 (permalink) tmoneyeagles Indian Buffalo Gatherer     Join Date: Feb 2009 Location: San Antonio Posts: 6,352 My Mood: Quote: Originally Posted by bigjpst thanks...sounds like you still ended up a winner 2.5 times what you paid in just 6 days not bad.... Well not necessarily, splitting profits with a partner, as I got the money from that partner. So after fees and such I will have around $50 and he will have a little over what he loaned me. But hey, at least it is something, I had $0 in my paypal before this __________________ From The Desk Of, -T$ (Kokapowan Tribe Leader) http://www.tmoneyeagles.webs.com/   10-22-2009, 10:43 PM   #10 (permalink) bigjpst always more to learn     Join Date: Oct 2009 Location: so-cal Posts: 79 My Mood: judging by the way things are going you could buy one today for 140 and still probably see a small profit in a few more days....that is until e-bay and paypal get ahold of you...   10-22-2009, 10:51 PM   #11 (permalink) Ripley Senior Member     Join Date: Jun 2009 Location: California Posts: 772 My Mood: Blog Entries: 1 Awwww you did not make $150 T....Well almost kiddo. $50 profit is always nice.
