Has anyone had success flipping items through eBay

[DONTRAY]

Greetings. I’ve been thinking about getting back into it as I use to do it when I was younger. At the time I was using Craigslist before apps such as OfferUp and Letgo became big. My strategy is to gain enough money to purchase pallets — I ran across a few sites that sells pallets in all categories. I don’t plan on using this as a primary source of income. I’m only curious to know if anyone ever had a major run using eBay.

This is more of a side hustle strategy over a Fastlane business. Not sure there are many eBayers hanging out here, other than those who use it as part of a channel strategy.

I use eBay as a channel, but what I do doesn't help your intention.

Good luck, maybe someone will come out of the shadows.

We have shifted from being Amazon 3rd Party sellers to selling on eBay. It's not a Fastlane business, however it is a great place to make money and pay the bills while you get up and going in your Fastlane business.

Unlike Amazon, eBay actually likes it's sellers and works with them. If you do what they want you to you can rise up the search engine and dominate, unlike Amazon where you can only differentiate yourself based on price.

Greg Perry runs a group called Treasure Hunting Profits, it's $47 to join and $17 a month. The group is over a year old and as of late June no one had dropped out. I think the list of videos he's done for the group is over 30 pages. Hands down it the best place to learn about eBay. If you follow the link on the bottom of the page you will see the introduction video. You can check it out and see if it is something that would help.

As far as buying pallets, I have a member in my Mastermind who buys pallets of merchandise either Amazon DD "damaged and destroyed" or else Walgreens excess inventory to flip on eBay. He typically has a 200%-300% ROI. He also throws away about 30%-50% of the merchandise on the pallet.

Reach out if you have any other questions, I'm "out of the shadows" now...
