Im tryna get into this ebay thing, been doing research and i got a pretty good grasp on it so far. Just haven't decided on what to flip yet. everything i think of is either already over saturated or too niche. I read about some dude who sold airsoft gear and parts and did really well. Need to find that thing that hits the sweet spot on profitability.

all of that is nice and all but click my link :birdman:

One thing about eBay that killed it for me was China sellers selling shyt for maybe pennies for profit, but then also offering free shipping which makes me wonder how they make any $ at all..

For instance buy cell phone cases in bulk for 40 cents a pop, china person sells them for 45 cents a pop or some shyt but offers free shipping :wtf:

(just an example)

:snoop:
you never heard of US dollar to international currency b?
1 Us Dollar = 6 chinese yuan

why else do u think the chinese set up shop with their restaraunts almost everywhere in the US

Been doing this for a few years now. Trick is to find that particular case that the Chinese sellers on Ebay are not selling. The one item I had only me and one other guy were selling. Did very well but I underestimated how much the clear versions would sell.

Talking to my supplier (from China via Alibaba) he offered me these TPU ones for the 6/6+ at about 35 cents a piece. I went to Ebay instantly to see the market and saw there is already a seller from China pumping them out at 1.98 with free shipping. After my own cost per unit, factoring in the shipping + duties in importing, and also the shipping I have to pay to ship it back out, it makes no sense.

Those sellers are the actual manufacturers/warehouse themselves, that's how they are doing it. They strictly are quantity pumping it, as this seller (manufacturer) sold 2400 units in a single week :to:

the thing about Amazon is that you got to switch up damn near everything to get back with them, gotta change ip, router, laptop, pc, whatever you used to sign on with, it tracks it so its a bunch of shyt you need to change.
