something that u can get cheap/fre that not many others can

personally i think being a ticket tout would make a load, but according to some, its wrong morally

to me the answer is simple... something original that no one else has thought of selling- however that would rule out everything that has been suggested in this thread! sorry i couldnt be more help

Top end Mobile Phones and X-boxes seem to be selling well at the moment.

Stockholding and outlay is minimal as well...

Just go around your house and pick up all the 'junk' and then search ebay for it, especially under 'completed items', setting the 'price: highest first' in the drop down. I did this with some of my CDs the other week and found an innocious looking CD single that sold for £15.50.

Nigeria?

There's just been a huge Nigerian Easter gospel service in the hall across the road from my house. They filled the carpark and the overspill ended up double parked, on the pavements, in peoples drives, down the alley, etc etc.
Walking down the road with a friend and her 8 year old daughter circumventing cars allover the pavements.....
My friends complaining about how they can get away with it and her daughter points out that all the traffic wardens in the whole of our city are sitting in the hall singing away so they've nothing to worry about. :rotfl:

That was just a front, they were in there discussing ways of scamming ebay sellers.

You could start of small by visiting your local poundland or 99p store, buying some stuff that you think is potentially worth more that 99p / £1 and listing in on eBay!

That pound shop idea works btw, me and my mate got 5 things from the pound shop to see who could make the most from them, and we did pretty well.

I bought a guide on the net from www.theebaymanual.co.uk which talked about where to get good products from & stuff. It basically said how to find newly released products before people had started to sell them on eBay, so you're the sole seller and every1 buys from you. I tried it on a few things so far (doesn't always work amazingly) but generally pretty good - I profited on every item!
