Ebay Sales

Selling on eBay is a real gamble. Unfortunately, it can cost more in listing fees than you will get from the sale of your item. And having a store is definitely too expensive unless you have a large stock of readily available items to sell. I have sold on eBay and have had a store for several years. The very best items to sell are the collectibles, usually items I have found at garage sales or flea markets. I pay no more than a dollar, and usually less, for these items and have sold them for much much more. These are the best ways I have found to make money on eBay. Regular household stuff is okay, but it just doesn't sell for much. Here is a link to my eBay blog about selling on eBay. It might be useful to those interested in getting started as eBay merchants. http://blogs.ebay.ca/goldbus668 I always research any items before listing them, too, to be sure they are saleable and are drawing lots of bids and lots of attention. Otherwise, listing an unpopular item is a waste of both your time and your money.
