If you are looking to sell you might try an eBay trading assistant.  Used clothing in general does not sell that well on eBay, but there is demand for the high-end items.

I do. It works but it seems like ebay gets their money too. You have to pay for the listing and then you have to pay for design. Then when your stuff sells you pay ebay for the sell. It wouldn't be worth it if you wanted to sell like one thing, but so many people are doing it so it must be good. I have things on list right now, but I haven't sold anything. I like it a lot. Its easy and convient!

Hi i am a member of Ebay since 2000 and i can tell you that if you are intelligent, hard-working, patient and consistent with and original plan or idea, then you can certainly make a fortune on Ebay.\n\nBut the real problem is that most of us lack in some of the above mentioned qualities. Like any other business this Ebay business takes time to gather momentum since you have to first build your image as a reliable and responsible seller and notch up good ratings.\n\nIf you wish to make a fortune on Ebay just follow my simple steps:-\n\n\n1. Get a small but a very unique and lovely product to sell from the local manufacturers. Remember your this choice will determine the amount of fortune you make. Ensure that the product is the best in quality and your first time customers just love it and tell it to other buyers.\n\n\n2. Now when you list your product for sale just ensure that you include a high resolution picture of your product from atleast 2 or 3 angles so that the prospective buyer knows what he/she is buying and make up his mind more accurately. Also describe the product you are selling in great detail and mention all of its possible features and uses.\n\n\n3. Be very careful that you clearly mention accurate Handling and Delivery charges in your payment terms and conditions and clearly enumerate the ways of payments permitted by you and also the warranties and return methods if available.\n\n\n4. Now clearly include Your decent profit percentage in the cost of the items which you want to sell. Remember it is this profit which will pay for all your expenses and which will keep you up and going in times of tough competition.\n\n\n5. Ensure that you include some good sounding personal notes with all the items you send to the buyers. Take care of the packing standards. Offer your customers speedy problem resolution so that they are not dissatisfied and do not give you negative ratings as this may cause much damage to your image as a seller. Maintain regular contact with your old buyers and offer them your new products on regular basis.\n\n\n6. Generally it is seen that if you have an offline sales channel, then ebay can complement your sales very effectively and can result in generous revenues from the online sales channel. Just keep the postage and handling costs in check and just document your offerings in very clear terms.\n\nIf you follow all these steps and try to be innovative, creative and caring then you can certainly make a fortune on ebay but with some patience and not overnight as many people may suggest.\n\nTake Care.\nBye.

probably depends on what you mean. If you sell something you have to make sure the person gets what they bought!!

It's easy to find out what sells on eBay (besides EVERYTHING).  Think of something you can sell, go on eBay and look it up.  Look at completed listing and you'll see what the going eBay rate is for that item.  If you can get it cheap enough to create a profitable margin and if the market is big enough (ie. how many of said item are actually selling on eBay) then you can probably make a sustainable profit.  That being said, finding the right items to sell on eBay involves a lot of trial & error.  \n\nNow for some specifics - once you've found an item, here are things that can help a lot:  First off, always write an EXCELLENT description.  The more info the better.  People are lazy - if they have to ask you a question, they probably won't do it, they'll just buy the same item from someone else.  Next, lots of pictures!!!  It's true when they say a picture is worth a thousand words.  Third, pay extra for BOLD listings and for a gallery photo - these increase your odds and amount of sale by A LOT!!!  Finally, don't start your auction off too high - set a reserve instead.  A low start price will get people interested in your item and get them to bid.  A high price will scare them off.  It's a lot easier for a person to bid incrementally starting at a low price than it is for them to make a large bid up front - it's all psychological.\n\nGood luck!

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.\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.

Trying to get through all the information on eBay can be a challenge especially if you don't have that much extra time. \n\nFirst thing I would do is search for "like items" and see what other people have sold theirs for. If something you want to sell is only selling for $5.00 or so and you were expecting $10.00, now might be the right time to post your auction.\n\nBut there is a great alternative to YOU selling on ebay.  Using a drop-shop where they take your item and sell it for you!  They take the pictures--writing the description and shipping it out. They charge a commission of course, but sometimes it's worth it just to have a sale be hassle free!\n\nThe link below is to their main web site and you can click on whatever state you live in to see if there is a store near you.\n\nThere is also people on eBay (TRADING PARTNERS) who will sell for you too--you can find them by zip code.\n\nThere's also TURBO LISTER which is free software that you can download into your computer.  It's so you can get your auctions ready to post on eBay off line and then just upload them when you're ready to post. \n\nSomeone mentioned in an answer a few above me what happens if you don't sell something. It's true that you can list it again within a time frame (check with eBay for exact data) and if the item sells the 2nd time you don't have to pay for the ad again.\n\nWhat is correct is:\nIf you DON'T SELL the item the 2nd  time around, you pay for that ad too.

make sure you research keywords first.  See if anybody else is selling a similar item and see how they're positioned.  Think of it from the buyers standpoint - what would you search for if you were looking for one.\n\nMake your descriptions as detailed as possible and provide good images.  You'll sell anything on ebay.

Buying 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\nThe key success factor is: 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 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.\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.

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\nAs for items to sell, you can:\n\n1. Buy bulk liquidation items such as those at Liquidation.com. The capitalization may be big, but the idea is to sell the items individually and profit from it.\n\n2. Find manufacturers of items you want to sell and buy discounted items from them\n\n3. Make deals with retailers in your area, and offer to buy their unwanted items for deep discounts. jayandmarie - the most successful ebay sellers - made deals with music stores where they will buy the entire inventory in the discounted bins, and then sold the items on ebay for 1-cent starting bid.\n\n4. Look for possible partners on the Web, preferably outside of the US. Import items from them and sell them on ebay. There's huge profits to gain from this approach.\n\nI suggest you read the articles on Success with Auctions http://www.powerhomebiz.com/internet/auctions.htm
