Ebay buying low cost wholesale items/Bankrupt clearence items and selling on

Why do you think you will get £2.99? Someone is selling earphones on eBay for £1.69 with free delivery.

If you match his price I estimate you will make £12.80 if you're lucky. From the work required to do 44 orders that's not worth it.

I found them for £1.45 free delivery
 
Hmm should have done more research on the prices. What do you think I should list them as ?

The only ones I seen for 1.39 an 1.69 are the standard earphones, these are inner ear so probably around 2.40 with free postage I think.

Like I said, trial run, should have done abit more research

They are inner ear. Anyway to be fair I have seen some selling for more as well but I reckon you will struggle to make a worthwhile profit. It's crazily competitive.
 
Yeh that's the thing with electronics, so many cheap ripoffs.

Well I guess I will have to see how this goes

If I new thing going to sell well I could invest 3-5k in the products at bulk and sell singles at profit

do it then, there's only one way to find out what sells well but the learning curve is half the fun. alsong as you have nothing to risk ie your house or a family, it's worth a shot
 
Well this could go ok and I could make a little money back albeit not a lot, or it could epically fail.

Trying to think of other channels to push products

And how would you go about findinf out what sells well?

I guess I would just look at ebay produtcts big sellers

But so many sellers from hong kong, china, Thailand sell at discount also

However, I also thought buying soemthing as simple as say toothpaste or condoms in bulk...everyone buys them...lets make up a figure.

You buy 2k worth of stock....RRP would sell and make 5k profit. You sell at disount and make 4k profit...people buy from you due to cheap price you make easy sales
