User automates eBay selling with Grok bot: 20 listings from photos, 4 sold for ~£1,000

User @AndrewBlumson shared a real AI automation case: photograph your idle stuff and a Grok bot (@bot) generates eBay listings, handles all buyer communication, and emails shipping labels once items sell.
- He has had GrokBot list about 20 items from photos alone; 4 already sold for roughly £1,000, items that had sat unused for years.
- He says the listing detail from photos is incredible, and that eBay feels simple again like when he joined in 2001 — he had previously quit selling due to the tedious listing process.
A replicable full-funnel agent case: photos → listing → communication → shipping.
