Except playing poker online, do you guys know any other ways to make some money online? Being a student, I dont make much money, and it would be cool to make some cash on the side to satisfy my need for technology. I think ebay would be a good start, but where can I find things to buy for cheap that I can sell back on ebay?
If you have any ideas, feel free to reply. Sorry if this has already been discussed

you could charge people a premium to read their emails and filter out the junk/spam....heck while u're at it you can do their work, write back to their friends/family...respond to the loveletters from the mistress's ...

Besidse teh porno/amateur voyeur websites I think ebay would ne a bit more above board. Actuallt its your only option online to make money - or you can design website for people.
Hit the salavation army/thrift stores. Look for china/plates/little cups/bowls, etc. Thats my best advice. I bought butter sishes ot despresion era glass.
Often people look to ebay to complete their collection, or its the only plave to find vinatage out of print dish wates.
Junk like this often turns up at the above stores for like 2.00, and it does have value to collectors.

Ive bought and sold some similar items - and have made money, but you have to know waht to look for. You have to check the thrift stores every day if your serious about it - like make a run or have a route/

tha idea about finding collectables and selling them on ebay (an dother collectables websites) is a good one. A lot of work will go into it, but nothing physically challenging :)
but i guess, you were looking for something that takes little time, and makes lotsa moooney?
don't we all?

make a website? There's some good money in websites IF you a) put time into it and b) have original content
and of course if you get lots of visitors ....which usually follow from a) and b)
