I think that 20 is probably a more realistic upper limit (and that would take a solid 2 full days of work to do right.)
+1 Unless you have repeat listings for the same item, its a lot of work to list on ebay. I sell about four to six items a week on ebay, none of it bike related. All of the items I sell are one offs, so that means taking pictures, writing ads, very little template use. Its pretty marginal return wise. I can't imagine selling 100 items a week, without lots of repeats, and full time dedication to the effort.
I am just doing it as an opportunistic enterprise, find something interesting, sell it, build a paypal fund, recycle it into bicycle stuff, and repeat.
