YES, chatteling is great! You could do this full-time if you wanted to.... The great thing about it is you always have a "fall-back" position. No matter what happens, if you know how to do this you won't go hungry....

Many people are terrified of losing their job, because they're frightened of losing their income. However, no matter what you do, you'll always now have SOME way of making money when you need it....

That's great! :)

I did something like this too.... In the past, I decided to "specialize" in second-hand laptops. I found that many people just HATE selling their own stuff, so it just sits around gathering dust.... So I sold a couple of things for friends and family, for a share of the profits. It was nice, since I had practically no risk, and I made money for them too.... :)

Yes, it's a good fall-back thing to do....

In the end, I decided chatteling is lucrative, but it's not the most exciting thing you can do. So my chatteling has tapered off recently.... But there's no doubt it works. If I need money, I know it will be there. :)
