Does anyone remember their first online sale?
mine was in 2011, it was only $26 but I was so excited that i had managed to make some money online.

My First Cheque was $126. I thought about framing it but I needed the money lol.

        Mine was over 7 years ago. I sold a collectable item on ebay for $200 that I purchased for $1 at a yard sale.

        Remembering how boring I wrote the product description, I think I could have sold it for another $100-$200 if I knew then what I do now.

            Hi Tim
            I remember my first sale like it was yesterday!
            Its over three years now and it was promoting a Clickbank offer which brought in around $16 Dollars a month!
            I must admit it was a fantastic feeling and although i still get excited when i make a sale nothing really is same as your first.

            Yeah, but I crapped out on my next half dozen sales. Got out of collectibles completely after that and started selling computer parts on ebay. No big profit margins, but definitely steadier income from ebay and the long defunct Yahoo Auctions too.

    Yes. My first product sale in 2002. It was right after I'd watched the new Star Wars film, and 2 weeks after I put my software site live!

    Feels good man.

    Yes, my first sale was in 1996, and my first commission
    check was $5.

    That was before Paypal, Google, or most of today's online

        Actually, I think I was running Windows 3.x

        I don't remember cars ever being $5. I do remember a high school
        classmate buying one for $2000 (brand new).
