The key to a successful eBay selling is simple -- Sell products that people actually want.
Selling on eBay is not as easy as some portray. In fact, go to eBay and check out the number of auctions that end without a single bid. Competition is getting tough, as more sellers go to eBay; even the big boys are joining in the eBay marketplace. Add to that the increasing listing and final value fees.
eBay has several ways for you to determine exactly what the hot items to sell on their marketplace:
Items In Demand = the most popular items currently within that particular category. To see the In Demand page, go to http://pages.ebay.com/sellercentral/sellbycategory.html
Hot Items by Category Report = a monthly report that lists the fastest growing categories on eBay for the previous month. Go to http://pages.ebay.com/sellercentral/whatshot.html and select "Hot Items by Category" from the menu on the left.
eBay Pulse = "a daily snapshot of current trends, hot picks, and cool stuff on eBay". Go to http://pulse.ebay.com/ to see eBay Pulse in action.
Merchandising Calendar = eBay promotes specific categories on its home page each month. Savvy eBayers know that this home page exposure results in more interest in such categories. Go to http://pages.ebay.com/sellercentral/calendar.html to view the current Merchandising Calendar.

Sell things without a reserve price that cost you as little as possible.
Purchase from car-boot sales and drive the price down then be careful about how you market the ebay item with the keywords you choose.

Earn cash back from Online Merchants like Ebay
I've found an easy way to earn cash back when you purchase from EBAY (and over 100 other retailers)!
The website, BigCrumbs, gives us cash back when we shop using their main page as the starting page. Their system allows you to receive up to 36% of the seller fees (if you purchase an item you get up to 36% of what the sellers fees were on the item- depends on how you set up your bigcrumbs account) when you purchase items on eBay.
Even better, when we tell people about it and they sign up, we get paid every time they shop. This site is free and I thought you might be interested.
if you don't want to click the link the website is
