Can you make a good living buying and selling stuff on ebay?

Answer 1

I don't know - I suppose it depends on what you are going to sell and whether other people are selling a similar item and prices etc.

I sell quite a few quality products on there, just as a hobbie really and it is a great way to make some extra cash.

In the long-term though .. could you rely on this as a main source of income for yourself or your family? and you have not got a pension scheme with it etc.

It is worth looking into and doing your research.

Answer 2

I dont think the average person makes money. At first Ebay was good but there are so many scammers now and fake goods for sale - I honestly found selling on there a hassle for very little profit. I think the only ones that make money are those with shops and paypal in commision xx

Answer 3

It depends on what you are selling I would guess but think that it would be better to have a job for your main source of income and make some spare cash on the side with ebay

Answer 4

There is a woman who makes and sells furniture. She sells it on ebay for double what she would usually sell it and makes a fortune!

Answer 5

Hmm...didn't some woman from Lancashire do it earlier this year - much to the joy of the national (populist) press...as we've heard nothing since, either she's bored with it, or has been skanked blind by dears - from the usual countries - who saw her coming!

Answer 6

if your organised and on time with your posting and paying its very good, its hard not to buy things with your profit when your browsing.that's the only downfall ,if you get addicted to selling the pay pals the limit.

Answer 7

If you can get a good mix of quality and crap stuff then yes

Answer 8

'good' is a relative term.

'good' like Bill Gates or.......
