I shop on ebay all the time.  I will try to flip items on there soon (like buy a pair of earrings for $1 and resell it for $5).

My husband and I sell on ebay and I buy some things on there as well.  How much you make depends on how much you sell.  Ebay takes 9% of your final selling total.

Do you shopped on ebay or sell on ebay? First what do sell and how much can you earn from selling.
Do you own a store on ebay. Many people said the sell on ebay and the earn a lot? Do you have any
idea how did they do it? I wanted to know because i have many kids clothes that i think it worth something.
Some of my kids clothes they didn't even wear them and it smaller to them. :wave: :heart:

i do alot of shopping on for beads and other craft things i just love getting my items from ebay just because its cheaper although i dnt like how long it takes for it to get shipped to me but i guess i cant complain because it is cheap and my husband sells thing on ebay so while hes making money i like to use it to buy my things lol.. :wave:

I shop on ebay. However sometimes ebay ship the wrodng things, and sometimes their shippuing takes so much time. It irritates me, i love it when shipping is free though.

The last time I bid and won an item on eBay was about 4 days ago for an accounting software. I have never sold or bought anything on eBay except on auctions. I don’t really bid on eBay auctions unless I can find better deal there.

I opened an account with Ebay just before the New Year. I have bought quite a few things with amazing deals. It is a great place to find many items for really cheap as many things come from overseas where certain items are cheaper. Other items can be cheap also if they are wholesale. You have to read carefully though with every purchase and also check to make sure of the shipping you will be responsible for paying.

Also I have been pretty lucky in selling too. I have several brand new with tag items straight from the manufacturer that I get for free  that I can sell cheap and still make profit. I also sell coupons, dvd's and other little things that don't cost much to ship. In general the shipping is what is the worst part of the whole thing. A good deal can be ruined due to the shipping costs! As a beginner I found the hardest thing was to figure out how to figure out the right shipping cost for my items. Also whether or not to get the item tracked or insured or both.

The site has a forum which is very helpful and you can speak to someone directly and get answers to all the questions you may have. It is a user friendly site for sure. It's not the end of the world if you make a mistake wither, you just sell again with more knowledge the next time or buy with more knowledge. Also don't be afraid to ask any question you may have. The right people are there to help for a reason and they will help with any question. I do know that from experience. I will say also that with the help it still took me a little time to get really comfortable with how i tall works but now I love it. I am making money which is always good and it is really quick and easy now that I know what's going on! Good luck :)

I've bought a few things on there... The last item I bought was a Seattle Seahawks T-shirt that I used for Halloween... I wore that under a ref's jersey and went as the Replacement Ref. (the Seahawk's T-shirt referring to the horrible call when Seattle was playing Green Bay).

Usually when I go shopping on there, it is to find something that I'm not able to find easily in any of the local stores. I'm not sure how well children's clothes will go on E-bay, esp. since many garage sales usually are full of gently used children's clothes and toys; they outgrow them so quickly that usually the items are still in very good shape, and parents with young ones are also always on the lookout for deals, esp. for things they know their kids will outgrow in a year or so. That being said, you may want to think about waiting until the winter months to put those baby items on E-Bay since parts of the country stop having garage sales once the colder weather moves in.

Yes I sell things on ebay but it depends on the price I want to sell each item for. Its free to post but its not free to sell, You have to pay ebay some money also.
