Keith Thompson asked:
If your quest is to find products for resale on eBay then you’re going to have to make some decision about the direction your business is going. You may have exhausted all the “traditional” sources of products by now: your attic, garage, flea markets and garage sale and the like. You may be out to make more of an income than tattered goods and unwanted Birthday presents can provide. Maybe you want to take the plunge and try and find brand name products wholesale, and market those. Here’s some thoughts and questions to ask yourself as you step up to the next level.
The idea behind your quest to find products for resale on eBay is to come with a steady stream of merchandise that you can get for a decent price and turn around and resell for profit. To find products for resale on eBay you either need to find local sources who are unloading merchandise they’ve overbought, (one of my favorites; you can really score some bargains here!) or contract with a dropshipper who will not only provide the goods but ship them off to the consumer as well; or buy your goods from a wholesale product directory and sell and ship them yourself. This last method is my favorite, because it’s easier to come up with brand name products wholesale and thus make a greater profit this way. There are many other ways to find products for resale on eBay. You can contract with a local manufacturer, make offers to local merchants, city governments and more. You’re only limited by your imagination.
To find products for resale on eBay that truly make you money, you’ll need to factor in several things. Consider not only the cost of acquiring the items, but also your time, gas, shipping and any other costs associated with this transaction. That the only way to really come up with the real cost of doing business. For me I find that the use of a good wholesale product directory cuts out a lot of the problems. There you can find quality brand name products wholesale, while ensuring that the quality and availability of the goods is there. Anything you can do to save yourself a step while preserving the ultimate business goal is desirable.
There are many ways to find products for resale on eBay, and these are but a few. Use your imagination and don’t wait for the business to come to you: go out and get it!
