Been doing this as a side hustle for the last year, biggest things:
- Watch your margins , Ebay takes their not insignificant cut.
- Don't offer free shipping , have the buyer pay, been burned too many times on this one.
- Just be honest and describe your items properly, don't play games with people.
- Pick a niche/area of focus and stick with that, develop a sourcing pipeline that allows for proper margins.
- If you pick a good niche/area then your buyers will be more committed and you will have fewer returns/disputes.
- It's better if the niche/area you specialize in is something you enjoy, then it doesn't really feel like work and is more of a hobby.
Some of the biggies, but there are more.
