text: ebay - selling question? this is more of personal question rather than an educational question...  can you sell memberships on ebay for a website you own. example: normal charge for gold membership = £7 a month but by selling off 300 memberships on ebay for an ebay membership type which goes for free for life, would be considered as having facevalue and also an offer compared to the standard gold membership charges.  if you compare the gold account being £7 a month (£84 a year) the ebay type would be just the bid there after its free for life  gold year 1 = £84 year 2 = £168 year 4 = £336 year 8 = £672  ebay account would just be the final bid costs and free for life there after *life being 100 years maximum should the website even last that long* here's some of the memberships being sold now on ebay: http://everythingelse.search.ebay.com/membership_memberships_w0qqcatrefzc12qqfromzr8qqfsooz1qqfsopz1qqsacatz16709  however, you will have to state the terms very precisely and state for instance:  $84 for 1 year (this would be an auction) or $500 lifetime membership (this would be a separate auction).  in order to describe your membership, you can compare your opening bid price to value ie:  1 year regularly $84 buy-it-now for $50 or low opening bid of $50 (you get the picture).  check out my ebay tips page here: http://www.themainsail.net/helppg.html  if you send me a link to your auction, i'll post it free on my website.  send me an email.
