Default Re: Making Money on Ebay

I have been selling on Ebay off and on for the past few years... I would make pretty good money if it weren't for the fact that Ebay and Paypal fees take a HUGE chunk of my profits!! I get discouraged and stopped selling, then after trying to find a job that pays more than minimum wage (and failing), I start back again... because I do get more working 5hrs a week from home then I would 25 hrs at a job around my area.

It is very tricky though, because you have to offer your items for such a low, low price that you make very little profit per item. I usually come away with a small profit though.

Garage sales, clearance racks, outlet stores... that's where to buy items to resell... or buying in bulk from wholesalers.
