Ever wondered what to do with the ‘junk’ in your attic, basement or garage? If you are a pack rat and have been hording lots of old stuff that you thought you might someday use, but haven’t, think of eBay. On eBay you can find all sorts of articles, old and new, for sale. Using the “clean out the garage” principal, you can start a small eBay business converting all this junk into profit! Never mind the shape or age of your stuff. Somewhere among the millions of buyers on eBay, it might be just what someone is looking for.
To start your eBay business, you will first need to make an inventory of all the things in your garage, your bedroom, kitchen and attic. The garage could be filled with many articles including books, old electronics goods, trophies and so on. Make a list of all these items and keep for reference. If you have big items, which might be cumbersome to sell at eBay, consider selling them as “local pickup only”. For items which can be shipped, take photos of them and list them on eBay for sale! Don’t ignore anything; even a knife that is found useless in the kitchen can earn you an extra dollar.
But, you should keep in mind that you are entering into a serious business that can bring you good money and not just pocket change. You should treat your business as a business and not a hobby. Come up with a good business plan. You should start by making a list of all the items that you want to sell on eBay and then decide a base price for them.
Once you sell all of the things around your house, there are multiple ways to find other items to sell. You could sell items for other people and charge a commission. You can buy items at a Flea market that can be sold at eBay. But, you should be careful what you pay for such items, as you do need to make a profit when you sell them.
Selling on eBay does cost money in seller’s fees. Know what your expenses are so that you can decide if the item is worth the investment in fees. Stick to items that have a good profit margin.
