BRANDI TOLLEY | Big and Tall Menswear eBay Member Since 2000

...............................................................................................................................

I started selling on eBay in 2000 out of necessity. I had just finished a tour in Germany with the Army and was back in the U.S. to start over. Newly divorced, I was also trying to embrace the role of single mother to my autistic son Solomon. I had previously purchased a few items on eBay, and was very happy with the online experience. When I suddenly needed a little extra money, I decided to put some of my old clothes up for auction on eBay. I made $400 in a little less than a week, but what was more valuable was that I discovered a real opportunity; I immediately looked for a niche to focus on, eventually settling on Big and Tall men's clothing. Not too long after that first sale, I opened "Buy BIG from Brandi" on eBay. Now I offer a wide variety of big and tall men's fashions. I have plenty of items up for sale at any one time, but I encourage my customers to request anything I don't have, and I'm more than happy to custom shop for anything that I'm not offering.

Through the opportunity eBay provided, as well as my own hard work, I've grown into an independent, successful and self-sufficient woman, and I didn't have to sacrifice time with my family to build my business.
