What to sell on Ebay? - Salak - 05-20-2014 02:31 AM
Hi
Basically, I am a university student. I would like to start a business on ebay.
Since I am a starter, I am not sure what to tell.
I assume electronics will be very expensive, so I was looking at some low profit margin items.
Please advise. If it has no affect on you, where you get the product in wholesale information is also helpful.

id go with t-shirts there is a lot of sights out there were you can buy and create them and order them in bulk.

Check out your local good wills for furniture... clean it off, re-cover it, and make them look like new and make a profit... you could just have a different couch in your living room and work on it until it sells, then get a new one. Once it works and you get he hang of it do two and a time, etc. Also works with collectibles, but they're not as promising of a sell.

Most popular sellers sell cheap items from China.
I assume, you purchase a bulk lot of stuff from a China seller on ebay. Then re sell it on ebay for profit.

Sell anything which you can buy more cheaply than you can sell. Have a look on ebay to see what's selling well.

best way to maximise your profit is to sell your own stuff you no longer want . apart from the sellers rates the rest is yours. although i have heard it is cheaper to sell them on places like gumtree the sellers fees are either low or nonexistent.

Go for some high end second hand electronic items, but make a short video of it to demonstrate it is in full working order. Potential customers can be fickle about electronic goods but you can get a good rep by addressing their concerns.
