What is the most money you ever made selling an item on ebay?

Never sold anything on ebay, I don't think I have to much that anyone would really want.

I've probably never made more than a couple of dollars selling on EBay.

Probably around $100 for an electronic item.

I once sold a pattern for a doll dress from the 1930s for a shirley temple doll.  I bought it in a box of patterns so i figured I paid about 10 cents a pattern.  I sold it for $56.  Never achieved that level of greatness again.  I don't do ebay anymore; between the economy, their rising fees and increasing postage I stop making money.

You can list 50 items per month free... so I list 50 items per month free!  It is risk free and cleans out your closet.  I sell constantly.  It helps ends meet and I'm not sure what I would do without it!  Right now I have a dress that will sell for around $35, a dress that will sell for $31, and a DVD that will sell for $2.  They also pay shipping.  The fees are high to sell, but I am very thankful it is available!

I have never sold anything on ebay but I have bought something on there.   When I setting up at the flea market on the weekend I would set buy baseball cards off ebay.  I did real good with them but that was 11 or 12 years ago when the flea market business was good.  Now it does not good as well.  Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend and may God bless each of you and keep you safe.

I use to sell on ebay.  The  shipping got to be so much people were not buying unless it was something they really wanted.   I may get back to it.  Tyring to decide between a garage sale or ebay.

It used to be very cheap items and people only bought very cheap on ebay.  Now, the prices are more like deeply discounted prices, rather than garage sale prices.  I just sold a dress for $35 (but it was new with tags and retails for $100) that someone would have paid $3 at a garage sale.  I sell everything that can ship easily on ebay, then if items don't sell after a few posts or are too big, I garage sale them.  You might be surprised at the difference in sales!  I was!

...Best sales on ebay for me was an old bike that I sold for $300.  I sold my pontoon boat on Craig's List for $1500.   :fish:
