So me and my friend want to try to start some sort of ebay business to bring in a little extra cash. Right now we're looking at repairng video game consoles, which would bring a decent profit assuming the no additional parts are needed to fix them. Anyone have any suggestions on anything that would be more profitable/easy???? I'm up for trying just about anything lol. We were also considering building computers but theres already so many people on ebay who do that, that i shot that idea down. So, anyone got some ideas???/

u are trying to sell a service on ebay, might be harder. Easier to set up a website. Ebay is just good for selling products. A good website with alot of promotion, online and localy.

No i didnt' mean a service, i meant we buy broken consoles, fix them, sell them for profit. I was seeing if anyone had a better idea lol.

go to house sales and garage sales. buy stuff there and put it on ebay. most times people have no idea how much their stuf is truly worth. for the first times it will be hard to figure out what to buy, but you will get good at it

my mom does it and makes a fortune

antique stuff...a few days ago she got these ice skates for 5 dollars...sold them for 315

last year she got the ugliest little flower vase thing that you hang on a wall for 15 and it even had a crack and she sold it for 550

its crazy

Hey joseph just sell used c0ndoms on ebay and say they were used by 50 cent or something lol youll make a fortune.

Car audio theres already too much on ebay but i guess you can give it a try if you have good prices.

I'd like to sell car audio to, but theres so much of it, and you'd have to get a dealer hookup/become dealer
