If your business is not using eBay and other Internet
auctions, you could be missing out.
Though I was not as badly off as you, I did end up making decent money
by using other ways of making money online, without really investing in
anything other than a laptop and an internet connection(both of which I already
had anyway!).
I brokered mailing lists and mail services for years.. The angle
of selling things for private parties is a fast way to generate some cash, and
could easily lead to all types of opportunities, especially to those with an
entrepreneurial spirit.
If you are marketing yourself as a 'sellers assistant', the
the seller will expect, and appreciate it when you handle the entire
transaction - Agree on your commission in the beginning - then you are free to
make the sale, and hand the seller the cash.
