Making money with eBay?

Anything other than consignment or arbitrage or something high risk like drop shipping I already have a supplier for cheap products from China.

I have an eBay sellers account with limits of 15,000 USD a month and 300 items anyone know of any alternatives to leverage this to make some money?

It’s currently going to waste just sitting there.
Simple method, that works fine.

1. Browse ebay for products. No mechanical or electronics (Mainly if your account is low rep)
2. Find the same product on aliexpress
3. Use a ebay earning calc to calculate your profits. Remember shipping can be high, but for small items that can be sent in a envelope it cost 50 cents to mail it.
4. Order product from aliexpress
5. Post on ebay and use 40% ads to get the product going then reduce it sale after sale until you've hit a good ad to profit ratio.

To track sales of a post, just go to the post click "sold" and you can see how many and at what prices they have been selling. This is a super easy way to make money, just don't be lazy. Laziness its why everyone I've talked to on hf is broke.

Also, don't buy a ebook for this, as theres only a few ways to sell on ebay and that is sourcing products and reselling the, or creating your own. All ebooks for ebay are public information that can be found online. If it isn't then its against TOS chances are and will get you banned.

Thank you very much, this is great and informative. 🤝
Careful about drop shipping on eBay - Read up as your items can be quickly removed.

Also ensure that shipping times are accurately displayed.

I've personally have been warned about both by eBay.

Nice method, but I got the problem because Cant find that cheap item a lot of people selling the same items on ebay with even lower price than mine i think they buy +1000 pieces to get much lower price.
