Even given eBay's fees, given 2:1, 3:1, 6:1 or better margins, it
can be sufficiently interesting for the hobbyist not to mention the
professionals. The concept has infected my brain. I've tried to
restrain myself to the 5:1 or better re-sales and speculation.
Wish I had a wireless Palm with a link to eBay so I could check
the price of items while at the surplus sale...
10:1 or greater is what I look for to encourage me to sell stuff that I have
collected (and have duplicates of) while .5:1 or better is what I look for
to just try and get rid of stuff. The 10:1 allows me to get more "stuff" :).
