I used to make good money from Ebay back in its heyday, my roommate was big into antiques and showed me how to look for things of value. We would both hit garage sales on the weekends and buy stuff for cheap and then hock them on ebay, I made several thousand extra for a few years doing this. Then shows like Antiques Roadshow appeared and people became more aware of the value of their old toys and stuff, and it became harder to find a bargain. I made tons of money just selling CD's, records, and sporting goods. If I went to a sale and someone had a decent CD collection they were selling for like $3 a piece, I'd make an offer to buy all the CD's and slap them all on Ebay. Charge $5 a piece plus $3 shipping when it only cost me $1.25 to mail them, I made some bank on that plus it shot my feedback rating through the roof selling so many individual items. I quit doing it when I start working on my masters degree in 2006 and it took over all my free time. Ebay sucks now I'd like to sell my comic book collection and other goodies I have on there but don't know if its worth the hassle.
