@Nicoknowsbest Hell yea man. Terapeak rocks.. If your importing goods it makes your life 100x easier because all the selling information is right-freakin-there.. you don't need to dig through pages of completed listings and make an estimate as to what you'll get. Just buy it for the year if you're serious about selling on ebay.. It'll pay for itsself.
Also people, lurkers, and timid, alike - If you're having analysis paralysis with this particular type of "craigslist hustle"... Just stop it. Stop it right now.
I SAID STOP.
Literally, here's what you do. Go on craigslist. Find something that strikes you as interesting or something that you think to yourself "HEY... I BET I CAN MAKE SOME MONEY ON THIS! :-D ". Check ebay completed listings for that item. Can you sell the item on ebay for more than you can buy it on craiglist? Will the profit cover your gas spent driving, time spent, and possible postage/paypal fees (if you sell on ebay)? Cool. Get the item. Take pictures of the item. Write your copy (for things like this you don't have to write the most beautiful copy on earth like you would if your selling a $1999 info product). Sell said item. Repeat.
That's it.
@GrumpyCat is
KILLING it with this stuff, not because he's some genius who wrote the worlds most astounding code after spending 5 years at some coding school, and is marketing it better than anything that's ever been marketing it ( Not that you're not a genius, Grumpy - you da man ;-)
). He's killing it because he just f**king GOES FOR IT. He just does it.
SO. Give it a try. Set a 100 dollar limit to start if you want and just see if you can turn that into 120. If you get a bad deal and somehow you can't sell your item at all - well then your only out 100 bucks... And if you're on
this forum, taking the advice from
these people.. You're going to make it back.
GODSPEED.
