How To Make $30K to $60K A Year Part-Time On eBay Without Ever Buying Or Selling Anything On eBay's Site!

EZ Money Maker #7: "An Unusual Way to Make Money Using eBay"

Strategy: To supply sellers in your local area with wholesale merchandise and goods they can resale on eBay.

Timing: This strategy can be used year 'round but you'll probably find the majority of your sales will come September to May of each year when eBay is most active.

I believe that this 'additional profit center' to your eBay business is completely new and original. I have never seen anyone else do it. Now if I could just get some venture capitalist to back me on this one…wow…we are talking BIG business here!

OK, I've kept you waiting long enough, and you may not even think it's such a great idea!

Here goes:

1. Remember that I said local auctions are a good place to selectively buy things to sell on eBay? And that the reason you want to be selective is because there are so many people buying at local auctions to resell on eBay?

2. Next, remember the chapter I talked about buying close-out merchandise? And how you could buy in quantity at prices way below wholesale?

Now, put 1 and 2 together.

Here's the way I've done it:

Remember I told you I bought 72 Star War I watches? Well I've sold a few on eBay at terrific prices. But I still have about 25 left. OK, I'm basically lazy (remember I told you that in the letter that sold you this Report?) and I don't feel like listing or packing or riding down to the post office one at a time to mail them to my customers. I'm really lazy!

Now, I bought each one for $1.50. The wholesale price from the dealers when they were sold to retail shops new was $4.50. I have a track record of selling them on eBay for prices from $11.00 to $17.00.

What eBay seller wouldn't want these watches to sell when:

They KNOW that they will make money on them
based on my track record of selling them!

So I put flyers up around town on free bulletin boards, put little ads for $10 in the local 'shopper' and hand a little card to everyone I meet at the local auctions houses which says:

"Looking For Proven, Tested and Quality
Merchandise to Re-Sell On eBay?"

I supply eBay sellers with quality merchandise at
below wholesale prices.
Ask for our FREE current offerings, price list and
our eBay track record on each item.
Dealers only. Not open to the public.
NYS Re-Sale Tax ID# required.
Call Dave @ (315) 733-1383



If someone calls here's what I do:

Ask for their NYS tax ID#.
Capture their name, address, phone and fax number and put it in a database.
Then I fax them a few pages of my current items like this:

Description Item # Qty Avail. Our Price Retail Ave eBay Price*
Star War Watches w/Light Saber Case NIB ST1001 25

3.20 ea take all

$14.95-$19.95 $11-$17

--------
TERMS: Cash, bank check, money-order only. No returns.
* eBay sales records available on request.


Here's how this works and why it works so well for me:

# 1 You're only dealing with individuals who have a Tax ID#- so you don't have to collect sales tax and fill out forms, etc.

# 2 You're supplying a needed service.

# 3 Your inventory will have a faster 'turnover' rate than if you list each item individually on eBay.

# 4 You won't make as much money, but you'll get money faster.

# 5 You can work out of your basement or garage or living room- you don't need a storefront or warehouse- yet (check with local codes about working from your home before starting)

# 6 This has the potential to be a really big business- open a warehouse in every city in your state selling to eBay and online sellers! (if you do, make sure to send me my cut of the business!)
