Teenagers have spending money.... But they can't spend it online. They usually don't have credit cards. And eBay doesn't let you have an account to buy or sell unless you're 18.

It looks to me like teens could be an overlooked market.... If you can make payment easier for them, it could be very lucrative. Perhaps an online web site, where people can buy stuff the old fashioned way - by sending payment through the mail?

I think this could work for teen niche markets - stuff that teens can't get at the local stores, but which they may want because they're "cool".

I've linked to an interesting article related to the difficulties teens have buying stuff online below....
