DuoMaxwell @DuoMaxwell (953) • United States 27 Oct 07

In all the various ebooks, ecourses and emails that I have ran into, I keep hearing that I got to have a website if i'm going to make any amount of money online. But what defines a "website" as such? Does it mean that I have...

mcthawk When it comes to making money on the net a website is simply a place where an item/product or service is listed for sale. You say you have no idea about making money through your website? Do you have a website? You don't have to spend any money to set up...

Why Are New Guitars So Expensive?!

DarlingGirl @DarlingGirl (745) • United States 16 Apr 07

I have a small eBay business and I sell electric (and soon acoustic) guitars and parts. Recently I received the catalog from Guitar Center, and nearly had a fit when I saw the prices of new Fender guitars. For a new "vintage"...

mcthawk Well perhaps the reason theres a greater mark-up on guitars is that the ratio of new guitar players is higher in comparison to new violin players. I also play the guitar, but there is I believe a different mindset here. People who take up the violin are...

Bee1955 @Bee1955 (3882) • United States 31 May 07

mcthawk From memory it was introduced as an alternative to copper communication transfer wires, telephobe cableing etc. Many of the cable tv networks use it. Personally I reckon it makes great fantasy lamps and not bad for fishing with.
