    [AMA] Importing & wholesaling for resale on eBay.

    That's what I ended up doing. It was too much of a headache for one prick. I couldn't sleep well that night because of how enraged I was, so I decided it wasn't worth it. However, I first offered her two options: either (1) she sends back the product and "we" give her a full refund once we get...

    I literally spilled my drink reading that, thanks haha. I got odd stares at work. I contacted eBay through the chat as I wasn't able to find the "call me" option (the layout changes every damn time, what's the deal with this webpage?). After chatting for a while and explaining everything, the...

    I hear you, and that's most likely what I'll end up doing, but I wanna talk to someone from eBay first. I mean, the girl just went batshit crazy yesterday. First she says it's broken and used, when I tell her that what made her think that it was broken is actually the product doing what it's...

    So, I just stumbled upon my first potential a**hole. The guy opened a Dispute on PayPal straight away without even sending me a message. Anyway, he claims the item he bought is used and broken. The thing I don't get is, it's been 10 days since he got the product. I don't know what to do. On...

    Hey that's good to know! I had never done this sort of filtering before. Thanks for the tip!

    Hey hestati, the "looking for random things" is just the start. You start with a very broad, random thought and type it in. Then you can go many ways from there. One, you browse through the first few pages and open those items that caught your eye the most in new windows for further research...

    I wouldn't say "by whatever they accept". Maybe he hasn't read the whole thread, so it'd be good to point out that he should always use either escrow or PayPal (payment, not gift), and avoid T/T and Western Union. @Josh

    I'm quite sure he said he was charging higher. I get your point, though, it would make sense, but he also said that he was investing around 10% on advertisement, which was equivalent to eBay and PayPal fees. Although seeing one of his posts in the 60th page (A little secret I've learned, you can...

    Hey Ecom man, I have a doubt about your own webpage thing. You can ask considerably higher prices on your webpage, I get that, but if you're driving customers from your eBay/Amazon sales to your own webpage (be it by discounts, promotions, etc.), how do you justify that the product that you were...

    I'm very new, and don't mean to answer for @Ecom man at all, but let me just share my ways. I've been doing thorough product research for a while and gotten a few profitable ones that I'm selling consistently right now. For starters like myself, I believe it's better to find a product that has...

    Cha-ching! Damn right it is. Being out having a drink, hearing it and realizing you've just made enough to pay for that and 9 more drinks in one sale is one awesome feeling. I would have never expected being in such a rewarding situation, and it's thanks to you and everyone posting and...

    You're right, I'll do that. Thanks! I listed my items 16h ago and I just made my first two sales of my most profitable item! Unfortunately, one of them was to a country I don't ship to, so I had to cancel it and change my preferences. I found it a bit silly that if I don't offer international...

    I'd still love to know what you guys do with the products you check, hence you "unseal". Do you just not sell them or do you sell them advising that they have been opened for quality check purposes but they are brand new, unused items? Regarding my sales, I'm now waiting for the padded envelops...

    Thanks. I just ordered some different size padded envelop samples as I'm not 100% sure what the size of my items is going to be yet, and some bubble wrap. All, of course, through eBay, see if I can get some positive feedback out of that. Plus I don't live in the US, and the eBay's preferred...

    Hey guys, First of all, thank you @Ecom man for putting this together. As you may have read 100 times by now, I'm one of those that had had this kind of business in mind for some time but always put up excuses like "it's impossible, it's too crowded". Well, after finding this post three weeks...

    Hey, thanks for that link. I'll check it out when I have a moment. The thread is Ecom man's, about import&resell. I'm already on the way to recieve my first samples. We'll see how it goes! Any help on the posting restrictions? What should I do in order to being able to post there? Cheers!
