Business For Sale? Try eBay!
Do you have unusually pointy ears, are your feet larger than average and slightly hairy, do you wander around caves, muttering to your self about nasty little hobbitses? If so, then you might have been one of the bidders for Planet-Tolkien.com which recently sold for £6,600 on eBay. According to the former owner, the site gets an average of 60,000 visitors a day and the income from advertising alone is worth more than the £3,000 minimum bid.The owner of Beautyofasite.com received $285,100 for her business. The owner decided to sell her site in order to spend more time with her young daughter. We can only applaud her reasons.
Today we see a wide collection of businesses for sale … so if you’re interested in selling – or buying – eBay might be worth a look.
