| OMG! Huge profit on Ebay! So I went to Michaels and they had these cute Nick JR Dora Birthday foam favor kits where the kids can make and decorate their own hats, bracelets, and Present Badges with stickers and glitter pens. The kits were on clearance for only $.75, the original price was $7.99. So I bought 2 thinking that I could try to Ebay them for the fun of it. If they didn't go for much it wouldn't be a big loss and I could just donate them to my son's school or something if it didn't work out. So I put one of them on eBay and now it's going for $6.25 and there's still 15 hours left in the auction! The person is still getting a good deal though because it was originally $7.99! But for me that's a huge profit from only $.75! This is so exciting and fun! I wish I would have bought more! It makes me want to go shopping for stuff just for eBay lol! |

| that is always awesome when you make a few extra pennies. I did that with some suntan lotion I had bought.

| Wow! Good for you! I once bought a whole slug of scrapbooking books from the dollar store and I should have kept track of how much I made. They retailed for $14.99 and a few I got that on, but the average was probably about $7 a book. I made hundreds of dollars! I've also gone to Target and bought halloween costumes when they have their 90% off sale and have made a bundle on them too!!!

| The older ones don't do too bad. But to avoid making lots of auctions with lots of fees I would just do some big lots of them. |

| I love eBay! It is so funny to see how much people are willing to pay for something! Oh, I do think it is true about ending your items on the weekend. I always do the seven day listings, trying to start them on a Saturday or Sunday, so they end on the weekend too. It is amazing how high some things go.....you just never know what people are looking for!!!!

| I love ebay, my brother sells stuff on it all the time. I am thinking about selling some dresses I have. I have alot of very nice dresses that I have never worn before. I am a dress fanatic. But I usually get them all in clearance, so what may cost me $4 I can sell the dress for $60, a little less than the orginal price, and I think this would be a good profit. It is amazing what you can sell on ebay!!! That reminds me, my brother just bought a t-shirt that says "I did not lose my mind, I sold it on ebay."
