Hi there, my name is hwgunner, er, I mean Jonathan.  I have been a member of eBay for the last 5 years or so.  In the beginning I auctioned off just some of the stuff lying around my house.  Now things are a different story.  EBay has become a second job for me now, quite by accident.  It started simply enough with some parts that were lying around from my Porsche 914 project.  I put these parts on eBay just to clear up the garage a little and, not only did the parts sell but I had a few people ask if I had other parts I was going to list.  I had some more parts so I listed them and they sold very well also.  Pretty soon I noticed that I had an eBay buyer that had purchased from me a couple of times and things were getting bigger and bigger.  Soon I ran out of parts to sell and I had to make a decision.  What to do?  I went to eBay and bought 2 Porsche 914's that were ready for the junk pile.  I got them home and my friends said I was crazy.  I am glad I didn't listen to them.  I proceeded to take the cars apart and put the good parts up for sale.  To my astonishment, it looked as though people couldn't get enough.  Right from the beginning I felt the best way to sell was to start prices low and let the buyers determine the final value of the parts.  This, as it turns out was the key and things have been growing ever since.  I have honed my skills over the last year and have a pretty good system down now.  I know there is room for improvement and I always try and listen to my customers before making changes.  I try not to make changes I want; instead, I make the changes my customers want.  So far it has worked out great.
