selling on Ebay isn't as easy as people say at least imo

Just wanted to say this because i see a few threads about Ebay selling. I am real interested in selling on Ebay myself for 1 big reason, traffic. But as far as finding what to sell, that part is real difficult. All the dropship companies have the same crap merchandise. All i ever see is lazer pointers, fake leather jackets, cheap cutlery like dollar store items. Even selling information is oversaturated.

I found one wholesaler that dropshipped name brand items from rca, panasonic and jvc all real stuff but it takes up to 30 days to deliver to the customer. I sold one 47" tv to a guy on ebay that was willing to wait and made a $170 profit. I beat Best Buy's and Circuit City's price. How many people want to wait when they can get the next guy to ship it out the next day?

The only way i can see making money is going to yard sales for stuff to sell or creating a product yourself.

Any comments?
