My first sales on eBay were over 20 years ago.
Went to my mother’s garage sale and she had 9 old Anri wooden figurines for sale at 25 cents each. Told her that she should put a higher price on them, and she laughed and told me to sell them. Opened an eBay account; took some crappy photos; and one month later handed my mother 8 - one hundred dollar bills. She was shocked and I was hooked.
One of the most difficult issues back then were the photos… in the days before digital photos were common. Took film photos; took them in to get developed; scanned the photos on a cheap scanner; then posted them to eBay. Then the checks and money orders came in.
The old timers selling here just seem to have a different perspective of eBay.
