I don't really like the idea of paying for lists of wholesalers I figure if the companies want my business they won't charge for it, I have found lots of online sites that say wholesale but it is cheaper to buy the items on ebay ! another angle would be to find auction houses with job lots but again where are they ??????

I would suggest buying a book on this, there is a book called Selling on Ebay for Dummies ( I don't mean you a Dummy) but it covers all of the basics for Ebay and will also tewach you how to list items with good descriptions and what options to use on certian itmes and so on. I really think the book would be the best\n\nGood Luck, I have a friend who does this and make s a really nice 2nd income!!

I recommend the following site if you're serious about running an ebay business. You'll get the wholesale products you need and the exact HTML you need to plug into your ebay pages so that selling products becomes ALMOST automated:\n\nhttp://www.dropship-business.com/index.html?aid=153542\n\nYou can also use an online website builder that automatically integrates with ebay in order to build auction pages. Take a look here for an example:\n\nhttp://www.ipage.com/ebay_intergration.asp\n\nThe above service costs around $20 per month, but by using that service, you could cut down the first service mentioned from $99 per month (provides you with wholesale products and ebay integration) to $49 per month (just provides you with wholesale products).\n\nThis approach keeps things so simple, you really shouldn't need a partner, which means you end up keeping any profits and eliminating the challenges of who decides what in a business. And the monthly investment is minimal if you're serious about running a business.

There many ways of doing this. When a business go out of business many times their stock is sold at Auction to liquidate debt. This a good way to buy items that are New. They may Auction in Lot Size, so you may have to bid on 5-10 MP3 players at a time (MP3 is an example), say they sell for $100, you may get them for $20 but have to bid on 10-50 at one time to do this.\nBuy from the company, you need to be a Business. A sole proprietorship is easy and you Social Security number is your tax I.D. in most cases. To buy Wholesale you need your business license which you get from your State Revenue Office, if I remember correct. It just a paper you hang on the wall with your company name (Go to a small business and ask to see theirs and they show you) You send a copy of this to the Wholesalers you buy from so they have it on record. They sell to you wholesale and tax free.\nThere other means of obtaining products, this just a few. There really too much to be able to cover here.

I have been selling home decor items online for about 6 months, with a friend's help (she does most of the work, I do the books & finances).  We have experienced several frustrating situations: many damage claims with UPS and FedEx, even though we have researched best way to pack our product; ebay has been making many changes to their site, which always affects the listed items in some way; and also the fees incurred to list items and to have a store is really ridiculously high. There is a fee for everything!\nOverall, we have enjoyed it-the shopping for inventory is the best! After 6 months, we are finally beginning to show a profit. We hope to expand to other auction sites soon.  Next will come a "brick & mortar store." My friend  just dreams of having a "real" store!

I have a few e-books and websites that I will provide to you for free.  I also have a list of about 700 wholesalers that would probably help you in starting your online business.\n\nOne word of advice though, don't go into debt when starting your online venture.  There's a lot of competition out there :)\n\nE-mail me admin@gotalkmoney.com for the list :)

Try the this wholesale website, registration is free and the items are quality for the bulk pricing. You can order by the truckload, beleive me you will need a truck at these prices!

Use your favorite search engine and type in electronic wholesalers you will get pages and pages of results. you may also type in electronic wholesalers your state to find the ones nearest you:) \n\nDo your homework and research the companies that interest you. Some will not be what they say they are. Try to avoid all scams.\n\nIf you find a few that interest you post them and maybe you will find people who have used them.\n\nGood luck in your auction adventures, and may you succeed!

First identify the suppliers that you are interested in. Secondly contact the company and ask to speak to a sales rep. Request a wholesale catalogue, and then the rep will try to make an appointment with you. If they think you do not have the capital most likely they will not send anything to you. Once you have a retail location setup sales reps will actually call on you.\n\nTo answer your question directly, a person would rely on the list of suppliers that they already knew from working in that industry. Or if you have a friend working in the industry you could ask them. If you don't have either then it would be best to get a job at least for a while working in a jewlery operation. Really liking jewelry and opening a business are two very different things. Everyone needs practical experience in whatever industry that they choose or the business is most likely doomed to failure before it even starts. \n\nYou can try Google, Yahoo, and other search engines for a list of jewelry suppliers but you are not going to find retail quality wholesalers publishing their price list on a website. One idea might be to choose a specific market and maybe take a class. I know this is not going to be a popular answer but running your own business requires experience, knowledge, contacts, and a lot of luck. It is a fact that most small businesses fail in the first year due to lack of preparation.

Most important thing to remember: Sell products that people actually want. \n\nSelling 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 tougher, 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. And you will find that many sellers are not making it well on ebay \n\neBay has several ways for you to determine exactly what the hot items to sell on their marketplace: \n\nItems 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  \n\nHot 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. \n\neBay 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. \n\nMerchandising 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.\n\nBuying from garage sales and selling on eBay is fun, and good getting a few dollars here and there from ebay. Sometimes, you luck out on an item and hit big, but many times it will just be so-so (assuming you can even get the price you paid for it). In terms of fun factor, it is great. But from a business stand-point, it is not. Not sustainable.\n\nIf you want to earn serious money from eBay, you need to have a well-thought out business model. Selling on ebay is getting tougher -- just look at the number of auctions that closes without a bid. Go to the boards on ebay and you will hear even oldtimers complaining about how stiffer competition plus higher fees make it so much harder to sell on ebay.\n\nOne success model of ebay is the couple Jay and Marie Senese (username jayandmarie) of the 1-cent CD fame. They have the highest positive feedback number of all sellers on eBay. Their business model is to buy very low cost CDs in bulk (those that CD stores sell in their discount bins) and offer them on ebay at a starting price of 1 cent http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/04_23/b3886080.htm Their success is based on the fact that they stumbled on a sustainable business model with products that people really want. They sold their business -- where else but on ebay -- for $5 million! Now that is success.

I do three different things to make money.  One is on mylot.com  you can do what you are doing here and get paid for it.  Just post questions and answer questions.  It's a nickel and dime thing but it does pay and I do it just to fill in some extra time.  The second is I am an ebay seller.  I sell old stuff that I had around the house, I make lap quilts and sold those or I will even by something really cheap on sale in a store and list it on ebay and make a profit on it.  The third business I have is with Stayin Home and Lovin It!  they are partnered with a wellness company that is 21 years old and a member of the Better Business Buerau.  I do the advertising for the company to sign up people to shop directly with the company.  I enroll them to just shop or to even start their own home business by doing the same.  The response I have gotton has been amazing.  It is no risk and you don't have to do deliveries or taking orders, just bring them to the company and if they want to also work at home with the company you will help them get started.  I have had such great support and training and with really nice people.  There is no risk in trying to see if it is for you.  If you are interested go to http://healthybetterme.com/  and request more information from there.  \n\nA great sourse to look up all companies is at http://search.bbb.org/    there you can search by name, address, or url.  It really saved me form being scamed and if they don't show up on there I wouldn't trust it.  A lot of work at home promises are scams so becareful.

for someone to get started with very little I would suggest them to first have capital. a freind is on his way by making first a go with  with e-bay by just knowing a few people with items and has blossumed like you would not believe.it can be a money maker for some and some excellent finds for other, whichever you choose.\n\nfor some that may not know how much fun it is to browse and/or shop on e-bay-here are some instructions to a very good spot to start out finding excellant products at very reasonable prices. this fellow starts out at very low starting bid prices on knives, i-pods, all tools, fishing equiptment, computers, printers and changes his items maybe every other day.how I think he makes it so good on there is he guarentees his items, sends to any country, and he keeps a 100 percent feedback which means the customers have all been happy.\nsome folks dont know how to dig in there so here is how to get to his site fairly easy and from there click around to an entire new trend for shoppers and sellers alike and.b.t.w., (2000canary is his i.d.)--just get to e-bay and click "buy" then under "buy" theres 2 boxes (go under them)is a search option--click "e-bay stores" search and put in the "2000canary"(dont worry about filling in the other blanks)then click search again. you will notice that its also known as his "liquidators companys" because he has done so well hefeatures a store spot on ebay as well. then happy hunting!!gradually you will learn to watch on ebay and deal with folks that have lots of great feedback to avoid problems, which is tricky at first until youve learned the ropes. this I know, will at least send you to an awesome spot to start with some great deals daily.\nthe items also display a current picture of the product that is up for sale as well. I have alot of fun in there myself. I love to buy fitness c d's because I get bored so easy and I mostly pay 2-3 bucks for them if you catch them on a good day where theres few bidders on line. thats when you can scoop up on the deals, my freind!! \n\niso it seems to me that perhaps to buy and resell if one is agressive enough could prosper well. ywe all have to start somewhere!!\n\n\n \n\nWhat kind of company (with the minimum investment) would be successful ing some type of capital backup.

If you do it online, and you let the wholesaler drop ship direct to the customer, and you live in the USA, you need only apply for a sales/tax license from your state and city. Find how and where at this link:\nhttp://www.businessnameusa.com/dba.htm\n\nOpening an online business and selecting quality manufactures and drop shippers is within my expertise. I would be very happy to get you setup and making money online. Please contact me at your earliest time from the source lin below.

Ebay is a great way to sell things, and they do have short sales options. But you'd have to take into account the postage costs and listing fees. Selling in location would probably make less money but you won't have to worry about postage costs etc. \nI'd recommend Ebay, maybe as job lots in themes by actor or genre.
