Beginners guide on Buying and Flipping Items on eBay - Make $$

[skyebr]

wish I could bro, but I dont even know where to begin myself

Just because its "saturated" does not mean you cant make any money.

Ffs, read the thread. NOBODY here will help you on where to start at or what to sell.

DECIDE and LEARN for yourself in this thread, and if you plan on making any money.

Placed an order from china.

Company asked me if they should write a smaller value in the invoice so I have to pay fewer taxes.

[ocarinanoob]

I do the exact opposite of this.. I never pester the buyers into repping me, leave them alone. Ebay reminds them after a certain while to leave feedback, they don't need you reminding them too.

Also, I leave feedback the same day I ship out. You leave feedback for buyers who make a quick payment, not based on if they rep you or not.

Bad practices my friend

Hmm, you probably have more experience than me. I'll do that from now on.

So this is actually legal, provided you specify they're fakes?

Cannot believe...

Not sure, made $3,000 in profit of sales, and was never in trouble. I guess as long as it's informed, you're fine.

Stopped following thread in December when I was in a bad car accident.

Followed by almost 2 months of mono...

Then I saw ebay raised rates to 10%....

Happy to see the same old faces hustling.. I had to withdraw my hustle when the rates went up to 10% because the money I am able to make isn't worth my time. Props to you all who have found a niche with strong profit margins. Lots of respect.

Check out the stores rates... Not rustled at all by the new fees personally.

Lol got an email from eBay saying my payment is due for my invoice.

Didn't know I had to pay eBay lol srs I'm so noobish. I thought their cut from the item was what they got.

Brb I owe em 120.

Wut? That $120 is the sum of the final value fees for the items and any insertion fees/etc. So that IS their cut from the items. You just pay it at invoice time, it isn't automatically taken out when your item sells.

gjdm, are you remodeling the inside or is it pretty much already set up for what you are going to do? Pics?

[The_Albatross]

Write them a quick 1 minute note telling them that you hope they like the item and kindly ask them to leave feedback if they do so. Shove the note in the box/bag you're shipping the item in. It helps.

I also never leave feedback until the buyer has done the same.

Face palm.

You are supposed to leave feedback for the buyer first and that is given based on them paying within an acceptable time frame that you determine to be appropriate. You are reviewing them on their ability to pay and that is it.

It is being totally remodeled, all new windows, new walls/ceiling, paint, doors, flooring, etc. Crossing fingers that it all gets done in time.

From the back facing toward the front

Same back corner facing to the right

The new wall being put up separating store space and our backroom for storage. Also the small door/room is a dressing room.

Has anybody had any luck selling DVDs. I'm new to this so obviously have 0% feedback and figured I'd start off selling all my old junk beginning with DVDs. But no one seems interested even though I've kept my prices cheap and offering free P&P just to get myself going and get some feedback.

I'm think about not bothering with individual DVDs and just grouping them together and selling them for something like '5 for £5'
