A serious trick to making LOTS of $$$$$

sponsored by: Ebay Powerseller Secret!




Featured listing! Yes it is expensive but it works.
Once I spent over 100$ to list one single item.
The item sold for 120$ and I didn't make any profit, but this gesture boosted up
my other items' sales. If you decide to feature list your item, make sure the item is in demand and will sell at least for the amount of money it costs you to list it.
Make sure that your other items are referred in the featured item's description (using Auctive tool or eBay's cross-promotion).

Another trick revealed.

Selling Cars on eBay !


Selling cars on ebay is the main income source for most ebay car sellers.
It is not that hard to do. The only difference is the issue of finding cheap cars.
If you are serious about selling cars on eBay (or off of eBay) I recommend you
checking out THIS SITE.

This site sells cars up to 90% off book value, all the cars are clean title with low miles bought, seized Cars by Police,IRS,customs,DEA.

Amazing deal on used cars. I know someone who bought a 2003 BMW 3 series with 34000 miles on it for 5000$ !!! The car sells for over 20 000$ !!!

Hardware to Help Ebay Business

sponsored by: Ebay Powerseller Secret!




Invest in a digital camera! You could get those for as low as 20$ now.
It is the quickest and most effective way o enhance your listing.
I, myself often pass on the auctions and listing that don't have a photo.
The visual is very important! People JUMP on listings with an image
and don't even bother reading the title of those item that doesn't have a picture.

Using sites like photobucket.com will allow you posting multiple photos in your eBay auction at no extra fees.

Garage Sale - Great Ebay Found



As I told you in previous post, garage sale hunting is not really for me.
However, I was walking my dog, and I noticed a little garage sale on a street near by. So I stopped by. I saw these cute little butterfly figurines and I thought right away I could sell them on ebay for 2-3$ each. All in all there were 15 of them and the lady wanted 1$ each, but she finally agreed to sell them all together for 10$.

After 10 minute google and ebay research I found out I just purchased a collection called "The Butterflies of the World by Franklin Mint". Each of these butterflies sells for around 10$ on ebay, the whole collection is worth 200$.

200$ collection bought for 10$ - maybe garage sales ARE for me after all.

What to sell on eBay (part 2)

sponsored by : Ebay selling machine!




Couple of my friends only sell old/antique/rare/broken/ugly items... Where do they buy them? Garage sales and flea markets. They are some kind of junk treasure hunters.
To be honest - this is not for me. I just don't like losing my time, going from one garage sale to another. Also you can't concentrate on one single product... but hey - they know their stuff, so why not?

I've seen them buy things for 20$ and sell them on ebay for 5000$ !!! Let it be stamps, old photo cameras, LPs, drawings, toys, watches...etc.

One of my friends brings his palm phone with Internet access, and before buying an "antique" he does an ebay research...

Another great thing about selling the "garage sale" items, is that most of the people sell you 1000$ items for 10 bucks because they have no idea of what it is really worth. So if You like garage sales, antiques and rare items - try it out!

When to List your Item

sponsored by: Ebay Affiliate!





...I found that 7 days auctions are the best, it gives just enough time for enough people to notice your item and possibly bid on it. If you are selling an expensive object - 10 days auction might work better - more people will see it, don't forget that a 10 days auction will cost more then a regular 7 days auction (ebay fees).

So the best time for your item to be sold is on a Sunday evening. Let's say 7-10pm, that's when most ebauyers are online. Students are done with their homework, adults are back home from a week-end trip at their parents...
Friday evening and Saturday evening most people go out, so they won't be on ebay.
During daytime, most people are at work or school and usually don't have access to ebay. It all happens on SUNDAY.

Take note that North America has several time zones, so an auction ending at 10pm in Cali means passed midnight in NY.

Your auction should end on a Sunday 7pm-10pm - however, that works best for me.
Try it out!

Count Your Pennies - it pays!

sponsored by : Ebay selling machine!



Keep track of expenses.
The difference in listing fees between starting an item at $9.99
and at $10.00 is 25 cents.
That adds up to $25 if you're listing 100 items per week.
EBAY store charges 5 cents per listing, you might consider it.
Also pay attention to hidden costs like shipping supplies and postage.

Hot Ebay Items

You still didn't decide what to sell on eBay?
The easiest way to go around selling items on ebay is
concentrating on a precise product or group of products.
By doing this you will learn a lot about the product you are
selling, you will be able to write a good description and answer
all the question.

Even better - sell HOT POPULAR eBay items. The problem with this strategy is
you will have to change your inventory every week or month.
Hot Items change quickly.

Make Money from Misspelled Ebay Items *scam*

sponsored by : Ebay selling machine!

I am pretty sure you have seen ebooks with this exact or similar title:
"Make Money from Misspelled Ebay Items".

Yes, you can do that, but you don't need to spend extra 5,10,15$ for this information.
I will reveal it you for free !

So what is it all about?

The sellers misspells a title while listing his item.
Instead of PRADA he types in PARDA, instead of Volkswagen he types Volskvagen insted of
Adidas he types Abidas... in these cases, the chances are buyer will not find the item.
The item will not be sold. Imagine someone lists a pair of Brand NEW Adidas shoes for 0.99$ no reserve... the value of the shoes is over 100$. Now imagine the title is misspelled, you are the only one who finds the item, you buy the shoes and resell them 2 weeks later for 100$ - you are 99,01$ in profit... THAT IS THE SECRET.

Now let's be realistic, you will not find many of these... You will not become a bilionnaire off of that, however, you could try.

There is a free tool that helps you looking for these MISSPELLED Items :

FatFingers

Enjoy and I hope you didn't give away any money for this FREE information.

Ebay Payment Methods

sponsored by: Ebay Affiliate!


How do you get paid on ebay?
... If you ever wondered why your item didn't sell, did you verify what kind of payment method you chose? I highly recommend PayPal as the first method. More and more people use paypal for electronic funds transfer. Either directly from your checking account or from a credit card - it makes the payment easy, fast and secure.
Sign up for PayPal here:

Sign up for PayPal and start accepting credit card payments instantly.

If you're a seller, you will be charged a very small fee for the money transfered to you by buyer, buyer does not pay fees. There are no set-up or monthly fees with PayPal. You could also use ESCROW service. Ebay recommends escrow.com, I never tried it though. It is similar to Paypal. The problem is the number of fake/scam escrow sites, which will take your money or/and your personal information and never transfer any money.

Western Union, MoneyGram is also an option. Although NOT SECURE and if you BUY an item and pay by these methods - seller might not send you the item. EBay will not reimburse you, since they have no way of verifying.

I also suggest accepting Money Orders, Certified Checks... make a not that the item will only be sent when the check clears.

If you feel comfortable with meeting strangers, you could also offer local pick-up with hard cash.
