Here is a great story of how someone is making a lot of money once again using technology like the internet rather than opening a store. Joshua Opperman became depressed after having a divorce with his wife having left that whatever dignity he had left and a very expensive ring. He tried to sell the ring back to jewelers but they wanted a big percentage of the ring in return. So he decided to start an auction online and he created the site "I do...Now I don't" after hearing about other people with the same predicaments. He had no experience with jewelry so he teamed up with a jewelry store. He has been getting a lot of great responses for this website and he believes it will be even better in the future.
This is definitely a great idea in our times right now. The rate of people getting married and having fancy weddings only to throw it all away in the next few years are very high. The internet provides a very safe venue to sell very expensive things if you know what you are doing and he certainly does.
