    Theres no easy way
    Sometimes you hit lucky and get a lot more than you think the item is worth , other times you make a loss
    Always start your item off at a price that is the least you will take for it.


    Go to carboots and look for a bargain ( its getting harder but theres some there )

    treat every sub-section on ebay as a niche market, and come up for ideas on how you could the top seller in a particular niche that interests you.

    I agree with whats being said. I've been around eBay for a good while now and it is definitely not as easy to make money as you at first think. I make relatively little every week and its hard work, not just the couple of hours you mentioned in most cases.

    My advice is to brain storm some idea on paper and see what you can come up with and also try and sell something that you know the market for and can get access of easily.
