A Unique Online Business Opportunity - Your Own Ebay Store With A Twist - By Deon Plessis

An interesting survey recently revealed that more than 9% of all Christmas shopping was done online. Although this sounds like a very small number, it really is significant in that the projection is that by 2010 more than 50% of everything we buy, will be done online. One of the biggest barriers has always been the issue of security and with the risk being shifted from the consumer to the payment processors, things are set to skyrocket. If you are looking for a unique online business opportunity, then owning your own online store is indeed a very promising prospect.

Before you start thinking of all the hassle involved with running a store – stop! There is an alternative and one that is potentially very lucrative and free from the usually hassle of customers, inventory and shipping which makes this such a unique online business opportunity.

Ebay is the biggest marketplace in the world and with more than 135 million members in more than 35 countries it is probably the widest audience that any market has or will ever have. What makes Ebay really powerful is that it gives anybody with virtually any product the opportunity to own their own store and to sell either their own products or someone else's products – new or used.

Ebay has been around for a while now and there are many strategies out there for making money on Ebay. Interestingly, 99.9% of them use the same business model and although it works it involves an awful lot of work. Just dealing with customers can be a full time job in itself. While most people try and make money by buying cheap wholesale products and reselling them for a profit, there are a few smart store owners that look at things differently – and they making a fortune without any of the usual troubles involved with running a successful Ebay store.

With this unique online business opportunity you can make money by selling other people's stuff. Yes, by simply having a store that lists other people's products you can get paid a commission for every sale made through your store. Ebay's affiliate program pays a handsome 65% commission, which is huge. Compare this to Amazon's 5% and you know why having your own affiliate Ebay store can be so lucrative.

The best part about having your own affiliate Ebay store is that it takes very little time to set up and once it is up and running you can pretty much let it run on autopilot. Since products are not passing through your store, there is very little maintenance required from your end. This makes it a system that you can easily duplicate and by getting a little bit creative, you can start to dominate several niche markets with your very own store – selling other people's products and having them deal with all the hassle of customers, delivery and payments.

There are many opportunities for making money from Ebay, but none are as easy and hassle free as this one. This really is a unique online business opportunity and one that will appeal even to those who hate the idea of having an online store. It really is hassle free, highly lucrative, easy to set up and very under used.
