No doubt! I was watching a hat the other day that you can buy new in the shops for £11.95 - it sold for over £25! (+postage!)

If I could be bothered I reckon I could make a lot of money buying things (even at retail price) and selling them on eBay, I see so many examples of the above. I know of quite a few people who go around car boots buying stuff up for pennies and selling it on eBay for loads. When I was at the Inland Revenue for a training day, there was someone there who made their entire living out of doing just that.

I have to say eBay is great - I run my business almost entirely on it now. I can get prices for things that I wouldn't even consider charging elsewhere and it only costs me around 5% to sell it, which is bloody good value in my mind when you compare to selling via normal retail channels.

Gotta hand it to him, though - that's world-class cheeky.
