Selling on ebay?

Question

What sort of things can you sell on ebay that you either don't actually sell a product (ie. a service), or what are some good dropshipping places? I haven't got a camera yet that I can upload photos so I can't really sell anything of my own yet, what else can you do on ebay to make money? Thank you for your help

Answer 1

Hey

I wrote a great article the other day about products you can sell on eBay without packaging and shipping. You can view it online at the link below or I have pasted it below.

Or read below

If you ask many sellers what the major drawbacks to selling on eBay are then many would say the packaging and shipping of items. Who really wants to get up early in the morning before work to drop off a package at the post office? Many sellers are now resorting to selling eBooks but that market is becoming over crowded and it’s very difficult to make any real money selling eBooks on eBay. In this article I reveal innovative products or services you can sell on eBay without packaging or shipping and it’s NOT eBooks.

Firstly, you could consider selling domain names. Domain names can be bought for under $10 and if you manage to choose one that is in demand then you could go and sell it on eBay for $20 or more, much more. Some people earn their full time living doing this and they can make 1000% profit or more on some domain names they buy.. You can easily locate these domains just by testing. It requires very little effort and sometimes you stumble upon hidden gems that you could go and sell on eBay for four figures!

Secondly, you could sell your writing services. The demand for eBooks and articles has never been greater. Many people want these written for them and if you have expert knowledge in a particular niche you could write eBooks on that subject for the highest bidder. It's not too hard to learn how to write articles and eBooks quickly and these two manuals will help you out greatly.


On the same lines as selling your writing services, you could sell your graphic design ability or web design skills. You could design eCovers, banners or websites to the highest bidder. You could learn these skills in just a few days and all you really need is a copy of Photoshop, which you can buy cheaply on eBay, and maybe some action scripts.

Perhaps the method that requires the least effort is selling linking space or advertising space. If you have a website with high amounts of traffic or a high Google page rank, then you could sell links or space on your website for adverts. A one way link is very important in terms of search engine ranking and your link could greatly benefit your buyer. You could charge perhaps $10 for a link for one month. After the sale you could then ask the buyer if they would like to buy the link on a monthly basis and they can pay you $10 every month. This is great for residual income.

Similarly, you could sell advertising space in your newsletter or ezine. If you have a large subscription base then you could charge a lot of money for this. For even more money, you could charge buyers for a solo ad to your subscribers. You could promote their product in one of your newsletters and you could easily charge 10c for every subscriber you have.

Answer 3

My parents used to do a lot of selling on Ebay and a lot of the time they would look to current events to decide what to buy. They had a pretty extensive collection of books, political and sports memorabilia. They would see what politicians, sports figures or events were in the news and would sell anything they had that was related. I think that what sells on Ebay is probably an ever-changing thing.

Ebay is where you can buy from or auction your goods let it be new or used. If the product is an popular item, then it's not necessary to have any photo but of course it may not as attractive to buyers.
