Buying Tips from Garage Sales? Sell them on ebay.

[Mikee]

Hi all..First time posting so bare with me..


I am currently in the Teacher's Education Program here in Winnipeg Manitoba Canada..I am wondering if people buy things from garage sales, and then place them on ebay? How much success do you all have with this?...As a student, I dont have very many connections with businesses for wholesales, is this a good way to start?

I am interested in trying this out, starting small, working my way up...especially with ebay..

Hi guys,

I just recently interviewed 2 major eBay traders and they both gave me the same answer to the question "how would you start again today on eBay?" They'd both look out for and buy a couple of pallets of liquidated branded goods (clothes and shoes especially) and sell them? They also felt that specializing in particular items was important i.e. not selling shoes, polo shirts, hats - but rather just shoes for example, until you have a viable sales channel with one product line - and then you move onto the next product line.

Hope this helps.

cheers,

John
