Actually, I experienced a case where I made about 1500rofit on an item
by selling it on ebay and I described the item completely honestly.
However, that was a situation where I got an amazing deal on the item (a
piece of networking equipment) and later decided that I didn't need it.
I bought the equipment for $600 CAD and sold it for $1525 CAD. The most
interesting thing was that how often do you see a profit on computer
equipment, especially after owning it for a year?
