All of you people wondering about drop shipping, you're wasting your time. Profits will be low, and hassles will be high.

What do you sell on Ebay ?

I dont but very good idea! Good luck to you.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...e=STRK:MESE:IT
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...e=STRK:MESE:IT
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...e=STRK:MESE:IT

I would hate to deal with the returns and fulfillment logistics.

exactly.

the best items to sell on ebay, are the items that you don't need to ship. :thumbsup

Payment placed in 3rd party escrow until results are proven is acceptable, yes?

i don't make 20k, but i do well selling mainstream stuff that noone in my town would buy here.

They say Ebay Hacks is good. I have downloaded it from a site. If you need it I can email it to you.
My ICQ is 146490505

Anyone use http://www.alibaba.com/ to sell on ebay?
I wanted to buy some things from there a while back but I am too blonde to figure anything out there
:(

What do you need to know? It's a platform for meeting China-based suppliers for whatever goods you are interested in.

Step 1: you research the products you are looking for

Step 2: you select from a list of suppliers

Step 3: get in touch with the suppliers. Arrange for shipping. Also arrange for large lots or partial lots.

:warning Use a secondary email acct because Chinese/Asian spammers harvest that site for spam leads. :warning

it's pretty easy. if you have great marketing skills.

I did go through it but it just seemed beyond me...I can't really explain it *shrugs*
I'd really like to use it, though. I really enjoyed selling some things I got cheap from eBay and I wouldn't mind being a gypsy for a summer :)

How'd everyone do with the recent Ebay changes?

yes, everybody does oveer that
:)

Hey, Holly. This was an interesting read. I'm curious how you did with the deal you made with mkx? Was the $1000 worth it for the info he gave you?

u sell hawaii products on ebay? a friend of mine does it and makes a little pocket change.

Wow, this thread is old.

I am a year out of selling anything on eBay. I bet it is a lot harder now (isn't everything?). They key is still how low you buy. That only really matters until someone buys lower.

If I were to do it again, I probably wouldn't.

As I was taught by a friend, if you sell peanuts, you make peanuts. Don't go the way of the high volume, low priced shippables. The work will drive you crazy and the fees as a percentage of sales will kill you.

I also had deals with local manufacturers and never paid for anything up front.

There IS money on ebay. However there is also big money in traffic online.

Remember the story of the blogger who made over $1million from google ads alone in the first 9 months. Insane. I prefer to pursue the traffic opportunities.

100......... :)

Why are you bumping old threads?
