I have been selling for a while on ebay. My husband always watched from a distance - not anymore - he just discovered that money can be made - he is out of control!! Always asking me to list this or that for him. He hits the streets early Sat. morning for the yard sales. I liked it much better when I was the only ebayer in the house. Anyone else have a husband who is ebay addicted?

Yup! Just as I'm cutting back, he's speeding up! I'm cleaning out the ebay room in a HUGE yard sale over the holiday weekend.
At least he sticks to RL auctions for merchandise so he doesn't bring home carloads of stuff the way I used to. AND he does ALL his own pics and listing. I'll pack if he's on a tight schedule, I proof read for him sometimes, and I'll help with HTML/Template/Etc questions .. other than that, he's on his own!
If you list for him, I assume you keep all the money except for what he paid for the item and a small 'finders fee'!
I finally had to buy another computer .. always a struggle to work around each other. NO ONE is going on this one! I gave him my old (1 year old at most) computer, scanner and printer .. so he can't complain!

LOL This is just to funny!! Just be happy your hubby did not turn in to my step father. I ot my mom into buying on ebay and yahoo after I started selling a few years ago. Last June my step father get into the "auction" biz of BUYING!! He spends an average of $250 and up a WEEK in auctions. My mother is just about had it with him and all his JUNK buying. He doesn't buy good stuff he buys things that do not work, or needs some type of repairs or missing pieces. He Needs Auction Buying Anonymous or in other words ABA
