      well

      I bought some used scsi hard drives that are hot swappable, i bought 30 drives at $5 a piece, mostly 9.1 and 18.2GB, and I'm currently selling 2 - 4 drive lots for about $200 each, so $50/drive. I"m happy. Out of the 30 drives, 3 were duds

        Once I bought a iMac at work when I worked at CompUSA for $180 and turned around and sold it on eBay for $800. It was brand new, pretty much, all it needed was an OS reinstall.

        A friend of mine went in with someone else though, and bought $15,000 worth of stuff and turned around and sold it for around $35,000. The money for the auctions was in before he even got his credit card bill.

        Every once in a while CompUSA unloads discontinued inventory. If you are friends with the manager, you get first pick. It was cool when it happened

          don't recall ever "making any money" from selling anything online. I think I might have broken even a few times, but almost always a loss.

            If you count the miniatures I use to buy cheap, clean them up and then sell them for a 100 percent profit at least, I have made alot. I would guess around 5,000. In paintball I bought an old Spyder Classic from my friend for like 30 bucks. And to this day that is the only money of mine I have used for paintball equipment.

                One of my friends goes to an antique store every few weeks. Spends about $50, puts it all on ebay and it all sells for $150-200. If it didn't take so much time I would give it a try.

                  I'm up around $350 (plus two markers) profit now, and about $800 away from having all my paintball equipment payed for.
