EBay profits shoot higher
EBay offers millions of items for sale every day
Online auction site eBay has enjoyed a surge in profits, making more than $100m (£61.9m) in just three months.
Ebay, which sells anything from stuffed animals to antique cocktail shakers, has become an internet phenomenon and is one of the few really profitable dot.com firms.
It sold goods worth $509.3m in the three months between April and June, a rise of 91% compared to its sales in the same period a year earlier.
Ebay goes from strength to strength. Could the success of Ebay be repeated today. Yep. Keep going, keep trying and you'll get there.
