    Out of interest what's the address of your website that's brought you so much income from advertising and such?

    Call me skeptical but I really do find all this hard to believe.

    I would never be one of your competitors anyway.

    No problems reading here, nor maths, I'd buy yourself a calculator with your next sales profits if I were you.:rotfl:

    The way I see it is that as long as there are shops about that make a living from it there is no reason why the same can't be done online with ebay or a future site that comes along. You only have to look at a normal shop on the street, what customers do they get and where do they come from, its very limited. Ebay has a whole internationl market so if a shop on the street can make a living, so can an ebay shop.

    I believe 30k a year or more can be done. Its all about your suppliers, what you sell, how much you can make, how much time you put into it & how organised you are. Think big, its the only way if you want to be successfull.
