Ebay Ideas?

Anyone have any ideas on what to sell on ebay?
I could sell some stuff thats in my house, but I was wanting tomake” things and then sell. Like a small ebay business.
Any good ideas would be really appreciated.Thanks.
If it has anything to do with surveys that you get money from, I don’t want to know.

I am an Ebay seller. I sell lingerie.
But if you want to sell stuff you make here are ideas:

baked goods
candles
bath products
crafts
wood toys
decorative pillows
jewelry (like bead work)
bible covers and bookmarks
origami
fruit or veggies from your garden
plant starters
tissue box covers

or you can collect items to sell like:

indian jewelry
refrigerator magnets
books and magazines
pet supplies or toys
garage sale finds

I have found it really hard to make money on Ebay. The market is flooded and Ebay keeps raising prices. By the time you pay fees, paypal fees, shipping materials and time you have little profit. I have pulled way back and now sell only if I can make 50% on the item. So it has to be in high demand with very few selling it. Unique items do the best. Search your home and garage for items that are hard to find or one of a kind. These sell well if you list low.
Ebay has been running their sellers off in the last two years raising prices once or twice a month. Many have turned to other auction sites or their own website.
Give it a try.

Good Luck

Does Ebay make money?

I would like to know if selling a product on Ebay is more profitable or selling a product to a client face-to-face is more profitable? I am thinking about selling jewleries, and at first I want to sell it to college students, but find it hard to get into their market. So I was wondering if Ebay is a good idea.

Thanks.

Nagesh answers:

Hey,

of course you can make money on ebay, but it all depends on your jewellery. The best thing would be to research ebay first for jewellery and items you want to sell and check out how much they sell for…Then you can decide if it’s worth your time or not!

Ebay is great to reach a global audience, but people always want a bargain 😉

If you need help with your listings etc. Let me know. I have been selling on ebay for 4 years now.

Cheers

Money Making On Ebay?

Hello everyone, well basically I am saving up for an iPhone & Laptop and I heard one of my friends talking about how he makes money online with ebay, I think its buying things in bulk and selling them for more, but I don’t know what he means. What things can you buy in bulk of on eBay that you can sell individually for more money? Can you give me any ideas? Thank you very much.

Nagesh answers:

First off, there IS plenty of money to me made on ebay still even as the economy keeps going down the crapper. The hard part about buying in bulk and selling for a profit is that you have to spend money to make money. AND you need to find your niche. What can you buy and sell that there isnt 500 other ebay sellers selling the same thing. I have my niche, and there are sellers selling and it has taken me a few years and thousands of dollars to start really start whooping my competitors. I sell my stuff cheaper for less profit, but it makes people happy and they tell their friends. Almost forgot to mention, the really hard part is finding real wholesalers. Wholesalers and manufactures are hard to find. Most sellers guard there secrets with there life.
I sell several $25 items every day that i pay $11 a piece for, and there is no way i will tell anyone where i get them (unless i sell my business)

best bet for making money, without having much to spend upfront is to sell the crap you have laying around the house that you dont need first. Then take that money and hit some local estate sale auctions or garage sales, and score some antiques or collectables really cheap. Stick to things that are small and easy/inexpensive to ship. Do your homework first look at what things go for on ebay first. Also check craigslist freebies and freecycle… Lots of people give away items that can get you huge profits on ebay. Lawn tractors, snowmobiles, snowblowers, old pop-up campers, trailers. Those items will ALWAYS sell on ebay. Good luck.

Helen asks…

Any good ideas for saving money for books?

What should I do? Today I went to books a millon and got a lucky star book for 11 dollars. A lot of other books there are pricey to. Any good ideas to save money???

Nagesh answers:

What I do is go on eBay, I got 5 books (Shiver, Linger, Forever, Lenient, Ballad – all by Maggie Stiefvater) for $34.95 with free postage, so it is really cheap.
Another idea is to borrow them from your friends and if you really like it, then buy it because most online book places don’t do refunds so you can’t return them EVER!
I also use public libraries if there is a book that I want to read but not so much as to buy it.
You could go to book swaps (swap some of your old lesser loved books for other second hand books), but sometimes they are hard to find and there are a lot of books that you may not want there.
You should also try places like Kmart and Target they are really cheep when it comes to books and they sell a lot of books in cheap packs (I got the whole Night World series for $20 [not unreleased book])
People say the small bookshops or independent bookshops are cheaper but this is rare, a lot of them are very expensive.

Hope this helps @(*@*)@
