Things that Don't Sell on Ebay

Back when I used to sell things on Ebay I was buying from various distributors and was forced to cover many product lines. When you look for what is selling you look to see what the prices are for you to pay and what they are going for. You also have to take into account the size and weight of an item as it is difficult to make much profit when things weigh so much and you can't produce a very good profit margin. One of those things is flat panel televisions. You may be able to get a monster deal on them if you have a business in good standing with a distribution center, but the peopel on Ebay look at these as if they are making good money when they see they are pulling in $50 over what they pay for it. It just isn't the case. Ebay rapes you on the fees, and you may have to pay up to $00 just to get the thing shipped to the customer. The idiots that don't understand this try and only charge about $100 for shipping and always lose money. So...just stay away from the higher ticket price items on there. It may be more work, but the best way to go about it is quantity over quality. You can make 5$5-10 on a ton of lower priced items instead of trying to make it all in one sale when you sell new goods.
