eBay
for Dummies
By: Margaret Jackson
James Brugner, Darren
Eilers and Tony Baker have opened their
first StopnDrop Auctions store at Westgate
Centre in Creve Coeur. The store, which
cost about $100,000 to open, is the first
full-service eBay
drop-off location in St. Louis.
It offers a solution for those who have
items they would like to list on eBay,
but do not have the time, expertise, equipment
or inclination to do so on their own.
The partners have enough funding lined
up to open 10 stores over the next two
years, Brugner said. Markets they're considering
include Chicago, Minneapolis, Kansas City,
Dallas and Houston. "We're toying
with the idea of offering franchises,"
he said.
