I was doing some research about a player named Sol Carter, who was a relief pitcher who appeared in a total of 2 major league games in 1930. I came across this web listing:

That site mainly posts other people's stuff at 3x or more of the asking price and if they sell it they just buy it from the original seller.
Interesting business model. They've bought over 20K from a friend of mine...he has the exact item listed on eBay. They poach his listing and put on their site at 3x the price. He isn't sure how he feels about this method of doing business but he likes the income so he hasn't complained yet.
They must not like my stuff, I've never sold anything to them.
You'd think this model has no way of working but that's the power of a good domain name.
Claims to be doing ~$20M in sales:
