hi there people, i have never tried to sell something on internet, beacause i've nothing to sell, maybe i can make somethink like cosplay's article to sell on ebay or other sites. These articles are required often for many cosplay parties, maybe with this i can make a bit of money. And what about you? Have you ever sold something on internet? Have you ever tried to make something to sell? Thank you for your responses:)

Yes I sold a few items on ebay about over a year ago. I sold some clothes that I had they did not bring much but I had wanted to try selling to see if anyone would buy from me and they did. No I have not made anything to sell maybe that is what I should do and I will make more.

Hi happy6162: nice name :) It's good to find success stories on ebay specially for some things i would never think a person can buy clothes on ebay. For me it's always the same question: how many opportunities would i have to sell my things on ebay and that's the reason i have never been a seller on the site. Good for you! Thanks for your answer. Have a nice day. -Alvaro.

I do not have any article that I can sell through internet. I heard that ebay will sell second hand articles too. But I am not sure about it.

I also never sell anything on internet, even though I have things to sell. This is because I think that is quite risky. Before trade we need to trust each other between the buyer and ourself (seller). In order to make a trade, we need to negotiate so that the buyer get the item then only pay or the buyer pay first. Is quite hard to achieve this agreement between each other. However, a smart seller would be successful and earn a lot from online trading. Depends how we going to operate this kind of "business". I will try to sell something in future, since I saw a lot online bidding which can earn a lot money.

I have and is still doing it. However, what I sold are used items so only those who wants it for collection purpose will buy from me. I don't really earn much from the sales but it helps me to empty a small portion of my very packed room. I have thought of selling earrings but nowadays, there are a lot of stores in the departmental stores that sells earrings and their pricing is somewhere near to my price. It's a tough market as online stores can only give customers the details and the designs but they cannot see or touch the actual item. Thus I gave up the idea in the end.

Hi codris. I've never made something to sell, but I have sold a few things online before. Mostly vehicles that my husband and I either didn't want anymore or had to sell. I sold some basketball tickets before as well. My husband had gotten them as a bonus from his boss one Christmas (shhh, don't tell his boss LOL). As neither my husband or I care much for sports we were able to sell one set of tickets. The other set, well, we didn't luck out, so my husband ended up going to the game LOL, though we would have preferred the cash as it could have come in handy. I've also helped my mom list something for sale before, as she doesn't have a computer. And I currently have an item listed on craigslist that I'm trying to sell. Hopefully I'll be able to sell it soon as I'm tired of it taking up room in the house. LOL Happy mylotting!

Hi codris: I try to submit the info to sell somw books i don't like anymore but i start to think, what if i don't sell them, i should pay some money to ebay and i didn't want to take that risk. I am sorry, i only buy items on ebay, i am not a good seller i think. XD Lol. I am going to read some more answers, maybe there's at least one among us that have sold something on ebay. Anyway, i think you have a lot of possibilities of success on ebay selling what you know to do. Hope you are having a nice day. -Alvaro.

I have sold clothes that I didn't use anymore in the internet, as well as dolls. I usually put them for sale in eBay or in forums specialized in buying and selling. Unfortunately with the current economic situation people buy less online, but it's worth trying anyway.

Hello! Yes, I have sold some of my old things like cloth that I don't wear anymore in ebay! That's a very good site where to sell something! However you have to keep in mind the transport costs and insertion fee that is not much but anyway you have to keep in mind these two things to gain some profit from your selling. :) To know what are hot items and will be sold better you can do some searches in ebay as well!!!They use paypal so payments are very easy to receive!!!And it is international!!! Good luck!!!
