Go around town to local garage sales. Go in the afternoon when folks are ready to deal. Buy good clean items & resell them on eBay.

My suggestion would be to turn your hobby into a business.  If you collect anything, you could consider trading items or selling them.  Lots of people use EBay to start up a home business selling collectibles,  home-made items and things they don't need anymore.

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\nTo get products, I import them from other countries. A partner of mine sells high-end bike parts on eBay imported from Taiwan and other Asian countries -- and she does extremely well. I import pearls from the Philippines, where you can get freshwater pearls for only $0.20 wholesale price or even less. You can make HUGE markups through this approach (e.g. get a real freshwater pearl necklace for $0.20 and sell it for starting price of $36)

its all about ebay,  go to the .99 cent store and see what you can sell for some ideas.  You can sell some items from the .99 store for 5 bucks.  Just an idea of what to sell, but ebay is a great way to make money

Number 1: Get a website, sign up for Google Adsense, and get people to lick on the ads you put on your site. You can make up to $500 a day. Nobody goes to my site but I already made $40.\n\nNumber 2: Go on ebay and sell whatever you dont need. I made like $100 out of this. You can sell like some old "vintage" stuff (old useless garbage people THINK is vintage). \n\nNumber 3: Go to like freeipodvideo.com. Those really work. I tried and it worked. I got a shuffle.\n\nNumber 4: Fall for one of those "Get Rich Quick" scams.\n\nNumber 5: Learn a few really good magic tricks involving coins, and when you "disappear" them, you keep them.

This may sound obvious, but the best way to come up with such amount is by borrowing from your family.  If you have some time, sell your stuff at ebay.com

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. 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\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

there is no quick way to make money. if there was, it's a scam. But you can have a garage sale and make some quick money doing that.

Open up your Vintage store in ebay!!  Just think the rent is only $15 a month + a small percentage of your sales.  And you get millions upon millions of shoppers every single day, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, worldwide!!  It is super easy, and you will make profits as long as you are selling things that are in 'demand'!!  I have had an e bay store off and on for 5 years.  I love it, and it is as successful as I hoped it would be.

Ebay is the way to go. You can even make a part-time income with a few hours a week on it. Just buy things from people who don't know how to sell items, who don't take the time to take good pictures and a nice descrition or....a very low price! Buy from people who don't know how to sell and sell again for a big buck and...free shopping on ebay:)))

Hi\n\nThe money is no longer to be made on eBay, but that doesn't mean you can't make money USING eBay.\n\nLet me expalin...\n\nYou sell an item for 99c. Big deal, you've made about 20-30c profit. You're not gonna get anywhere doing that, but, what if you could turn that customer who pays 99c into a lifelong customer who spends tens of dollars on your products and services every month.\n\nYou can find out more about these techniques using these articles http://www.auction-enterprise.com/articles.html\n\nYou can also grab a load of free eBay eBooks from here:\n\nhttp://www.auction-enterprise.com/free-ebay-ebooks.html\n\nThanks, James
