The most succesful item I have sold on ebay has been my ganz webkinz.  Our family has adopted six of them so far and I admit I spend way to much time at my computer caring for my critters...Understand I am 61 years old....oh well I personally think they are wonderful for seniors.  It is a fun safe pastime, but the games keep old minds stimulated and for those seniors who are alone it is something to care for daily.  This product has not taken off in my community like I wish it would but hopefully it will soon.  In the meantime I continue to sell them on ebay.  I was one of the first ebayers to offer them now there is much more competion but that is a good thing...Today the weather is lovely in the pacific northwest, school is out and the summer retail slump begins.  Sadly that slump is more painful than in past years. So I list, pray for sales and continue on with a smile on my face and faith in my heart that things will get better soon.
