Message:: [QUOTE="stevereecy, post: 842549, member: 19884"]OK folks. I've always wanted to do this, and there are people here who might be interested in this challenge, so here's a contest I'm proposing. You take $50.00 of your own money...but no more than $50.00. You have to buy and sell things on e-bay to turn your money into $100.00. You have to do it open book, and account for all e-bay and postage fees. The winner will be the first person to wind up with more than $100.00 after all fees are settled.   Can it be done??? You can buy anything you want...it could be coins, comicbooks, Furbys, whatever. It can be any combination of items, whether you start with one $50 item, or 50 $1 items. And as you make money, you can invest your profits. You must actually receive funds before you can reinvest it, though you are allowed to reinvest funds even before you ship an item out as long as you actually have the funds in hand. As a rule though, you have to list the auctions (with a link) and account for all fees. I was thinking we could kick this off on Friday, March 26th or something to give new entrants a chance. We can accept latecomers, but those who start the game on-time will have an advantage. The prize rule: If you are going to enter the contest, you have to agree to donate a small token prize to the winner as part of your entrance fee. I'll donate ten (10) BU-1956 nickels, and one will have attractive end roll toning. Who's in? Steve[/QUOTE]
