D

o you want to sell
some of your
"stuff" through an
online auction,
but you're not sure how to do
it ... or you don't have time
to do the whole job ... or you
can't do it because you're just
plain intimidated by your
computer?
To the rescue comes
, "myEZsale.com ," a middle-
, man company founded by a
former Detroiter with family
roots in the Jewish communi-
ty, whose company will do
the job for you. The service,
with the motto of "snap, sell,
ship and save," is the brain-
child of Mitchell S. Schecter,
one of those Internet entre-
preneurs now playing leading
roles in the e-commerce busi-
ness.
The company opened its
48th nationwide location in
November, inside Mail Works
Plus at 14 Mile and
Farmington roads in West
Bloomfield, and sold 21
items through Dec. 1. With a
newly acquired $10 million
in venture capital, Schecter
says the business now is
worth $30,million, and
national sales on eBay,

fi

Mitchell
Shecter credits
his mother,
Toby, with
giving him
the idea for
the company.
