Wanted: Graduates who make money on eBay

February 6, 2008

This post was written in February 2008; specific information contained within it may be out of date.

Nic Paton is a a journalist working for The Guardian’s Graduate section and looking for eBay sellers to help with an article he’s writing.

The article will look at graduates, both current and recently graduated, who “moonlight” running businesses on eBay or elsewhere online. Nic told us that the aim of the article is to give graduates an idea of how straightforward it is to do, what sort of money can be made and what issues they need to be thinking about (i.e. things like remembering to pay tax!).

Are you a student who either makes a bit of money on the side perhaps to pay off your student loan more quickly or who have found they started this way and grown a business from there? If so Nic would like to speak to you and you can contact him at nic@cormorantmedia.co.uk

UPDATE: The article was published in both the print and online versions of the Guardian on Saturday 23rd Feb 2008
