Selling on Ebay or Not?

    I use to buy and sell on ebay selling my own items but ran out of stuff to sell. Anyone have any ideas? Thinking about using dropshipping but heard of so many scams. Is there a reputiable dropshipper? And trying to think of what items to sell. I know everyone has these same questions trying to make $$$ on the net but maybe I would get some ideas here. I do pretty good selling links in my directories but I want to get back to selling on ebay also. Thanks guys

    My advice sell something cheap to ship and high in demand. Selling domain names on ebay can be profitable.

    E-bay is still very profitable you just have to have a demand for your product and good prices. I've worked for several companies just running their E-bay auctions full time. I've helped them raise their sales through the roof. I remember when I first started working for a cell phone company I raised their income atleast 3x every week. The company I just started working for I doubled their monthly sales. Now if I only I could do this for myself! I'm interested in this drop shopping program you're talking about, I've heard of some legit programs but I don't remember them and I think there's a really high fee to become a member, but I'm not sure.

    I would suggest something in the online world such as e-books. You never run out and you never have to ship.

    There is not high demand for both. And btw half.com is more than enough as it comes to the books. Electronics are going quite well on the internet.

    Some have commented about selling ebooks and ipods or mp3's. I have webebook.net which sells ebooks but kinda slow now and I have puters.biz which sells electronics mp players and ipods though amazon which there are 100's of items there. That site is really picking up pr3 now and expected a pr6 next update, but I still might go the book route in ebay and try to move some. Thanks for your comments and suggestions!

    Definitely yes. eBay is the worlds largest marketplace isn't it? :D I am not a power seller but I've sold a couple of things and I've also bought a few.
