I guess I can’t just see one person becoming a huge company doing the work all by themselves. It’s possible but I think to take a business to the next level (besides being a casual seller) it would take many additional employees to sell alot and make money!
I really don't think it would take anywhere near 20 employees. Last I knew Dean's Cards had 9 total employees to cover every aspect of their business.

The hard part is the initial start up. You need to buy a ship load of product to start. Then all the initial listings will take some time. Once going maintaining it would be way easier with less people.
