Using Advanced search on Ebay

When I started out looking to the internet as a means to making a living I began with the online auction site ebay. I was an avid bargain hunter and used to browse car boot sales and charity shops. I combined this hobby with selling things for a profit on ebay. I later learned how to use this tool: bargainchecker.com to unearth misspelled items listed on ebay which get far fewer views than they should.

By sifting through these bargains you can find the ones which are going for much less than their worth. Then, relist them with much better titles, descriptions and pictures to get far more views than a normal listing would. Hey presto, you’ve made a profit! There are several other ways to find bargains on ebay too. Take a look at my article how to start a profitable ebay business for more on this.

#2 – Ebay – Buying in bulk and selling through a single listing.

Here’s another way to use the monster auction site to earn an income. Buy in bulk from wholesalers such as alibaba.com and create a single listing for your item. Sell multiple items through a single listing. To find a suitable product to sell you can browse ebay itself and look for the top selling products for ideas. Choose a category and click on the “buy it now” button at the top of the listings. You can even see how many items have been sold by individual sellers.

You can either join the Adsense program and put adverts on your videos or sell affiliate products to your viewers.
