I dont really, i have in the past though.
Like i got 20 brand new benefit make up bags for £10 and sold them on ebay for about £5 each...
You just need to keep and eye on the things your interested in. See how much they are and then search them on ebay to sell if they sell for much more by themselves...
Make up can be quite good, from America and stuff....0 -
As above my personal experience was to buy laptops from the usa and sell them on ebay (appx 4years ago) i sold aroun 6 but be aware there are import taxes if the parcel ur buying is over a certain value0

I haven't but it might be an idea :T
I've got about 10 pairs of shoes that don't fit (brand new and stashed in the wardrobe), cardis, shirts etc that don't fit. Things that I haven't liked when it's arrived.

I used to buy on ebay.com and then resell through a different id on ebay.uk..I don't bother too much now though as it was a tough way to make money once you factor in all the ebay and paypal fees.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

I buy all the time off ebay and sell on a great site to check out kirsty is www.localbargainfinder.co.uk put in your postcode with no spaces click on how many miles your prepared to travel to pick up what you win and away you go for eg put in your postcode and click on 10 miles and it will throw up all the bargains 10 miles from where you live and you bid on them ive got some right bargains stuff like 80 dvds for 25quid brand new toilet 10quid it cuts out all the postage and you pick them up yourself then resell on ebay for profit tips always look for low amount of bidders on an item just click on watch item rather than bid straight away then in the last 10mins bid on it hope this helps need anymore tips then pm me:D0 -
