Today I was clued into a way to make money. 

My buddy at work here told me that starting last Wednesday, he has been selling Ebay wholesale lists.  By doing this, he has made about 200 bucks, and has been told by shadowy ebay figures that once he "figures out how to do it" he’ll be able to make enough money to quit his job.   Now, 200 is a lot of bucks, and I’m always up for a little cash, so I looked into it.  Check this out…

Do a search for "lists plasma TV" on ebay.  Take a look at some of this stuff.  Like this one, for instance.  If its closed down by the time you find this link, thats cool, I’m sure there’ll be others. 

This is pure douchebaggery.  Douchbaggery at its highest form.  These bastards are going to email you a list of wholesalers that they got from somebody else off Ebay, most likely without even checking them, or even reading the email, for this much money.  Thats it.  They send you an email with addresses, phone numbers, and websites.  See you later bye. 

In the example above too, take a look at the bid history.  It doesn’t take much imagination to see that the majority of those bids, that have zero feedback, are invented to inflate the bid price.   

Now, I’m not one to say that stupid people don’t deserve whats coming, and anybody in this day and age who doesn’t read the label is bound to end up screwing themselves over, both on ebay and in the dryer.  But man, I’d just be afraid of some sort of karmic retribution for doing this. 

Then again… I am broke… 

Problem is, after a particular Gamecube incident a year or two ago, GAC has full on banned me from going to Ebay…
