Can you really make money by starting an online business through ebay?

Just need some information

It is quite possible to make a decent living off eBay, but you have to know what you’re doing. There are no quick and easy shortcuts, or everyone would be making a fortune on eBay.

You need to (1) chose a product that is in demand, (2) know your product extremely well, (3) have a source to purchase that product at a very good price, (4) know the marketplace for your product, (5) know where you can fit into that market, and (6) be able to sell your product at a competitive price on eBay, yet (7) still assure yourself of an adequate profit for your effort.

It’s not easy to get started, as you can see, but if you get all the pieces to fit properly, it can be very lucrative.

    Ebay is pretty much saturated already, even if you found a good product ebay shops would probably be selling the same thing and they can afford to set their prices low so it’s hard to compete. You have to pay listing fees even if your item dosen’t sell and if it does sell you have to pay a final value fee and a paypal fee for receiving a payment!
