  • Does anyone here sell on ebay/amazon?

    If so, how well do you do? Is it enough to take the place of a full time job at about $10-$13 an hour?

    I sell on there, but not very often. I do okay when I sell, but it sometimes takes a few re-listings (on ebay) to sell the items.

    I guess the hardest part is finding out what sells the best. Some months selling may be better then others.

      I sold on Ebay for about 4 years. It takes the time of a full-time job, but with way more aggrivation

      We sold books, YMMV

        I don't see how it could possibly be more aggravating than what I'm doing right now.

        I did know someone who told me she clears $5000 a month but I haven't seen her a very long time so I thought I'd ask on here. I need to do something different that still brings in money to pay the bills. My stress levels are too high and I need a break.

          It takes a lot of luck and hard work -- and I know you're not afraid of the latter ^_^ But a lot of it is luck and fortunate timing, along with happening across an item that people want, that not too many folks are selling, that has a good profit margin. If you are able, try selling while still at the job you've got and see if the online sales overtake the income from the b&m job.

            I sell on Amazon, but consider it as a hobby/coffee money. It can take months for things to move, and some sellers get into a game of constantly undercutting someone just because they can.

            Haven't done ebay in awhile as a seller, mainly due to the fees and dumb questions ("will u sell me [$50 item] for a dollar cuz I want it").
