Reading AuctionBytes: AuctionBytes Feature: First Item Sold Online

Do you remember the first item you ever sold online? Let us know by sending an email to ina@auctionbytes.com and we may publish your story. Today we hear from Rick, whose first item listed on eBay sold for $600!

Ina,
The first item I ever sold on E bay, which is the only auction company I have ever listed with was an old Missoni sweater of mine, one that was on it's way to the Salvation Army. I did know that Missoni sweaters were somewhat expensive items, so I figured why not give it a try. I earned $600.00 dollars on that sweater, and since then I have become a full time Silver Powerseller, and have been working steadily on E Bay for almost 8 years. It was one of the wisest decisions I have ever made, and I am so grateful that I took that chance for did it ever pay off. It's a gift that keeps on giving.

Thank you Ina for all the wonderful work you do.
Sincerely,
Rick Albert
