I think you'd enjoy it a lot more if you bought/sold something you were interested in.
Look at what someone like Jason Cullen is doing; making some money, supporting his hobby and provinding a service to others in his hobby. Sometimes the classifieds in BBS boards is better (read: less hassle) than ebay.
I've found a nice little niche I'm taking advantage of for "fun" money, mind you ona smaller scale. I buy used VW diesel engines locally for $50-$400, and part them out. Takes me 2-3 hours to tear an engine down and photograph it, and I get minimum $500 for core parts, and much more if I get good turbos, pistons, cranks & heads. I make 300-600 off each engine, plus I get lots of spare parts for me. I usually do an engine every month or so; I'm picking up two this weekend. Good timing, the turbo on my samurai is sucking oil.
You have any hobbies that you could buy/sell in?
