i want to go an LPG conversion for my car, unleaded fuel is just to expensive.

lol, quick question
why are we talking about gas/diesel prices?

just curious.

because there so high lol

Average profit maybe about £15 or so per item, on a good may may sell up to 15 or so items per day.

when you want to get rid of that titan let me know. I need something to pull the camper. I am pulling a 26 foot with a jeep. (its a chick thing). Not working to well. Or if anyone wants to get rid of a hummer. hint hint.

lol a to fill a hummer up would send me on the brink of bankruptcy

Right now my profit is 0 i can't sell anything on ebay anymore :(

get back to it :), churn out those accounts.

Hey love2hate...
 

How are things going? PM Me and lets compare notes. Might help.

I have a formula that gives me 100% profit, which is basically $5.00 per item sold. But, since I need no less than $5000 a month for the baby's medical expenses, I work just about 24/7.

You guys need to give me some ideas, with those high profit percentages.

When you say ideas....exactly what are you looking for?
If your looking for ideas on what to sell....this isn't going to go anywhere. No one is going to share on what they sell.

LOL! Good luck getting same profits like they did in 2008. It's a different world today.

My profits are anywhere from $12 dollars, and up to $60 dollars. My whole goal is on daily profit though. How much am I making per day. Back in my glory days I would make anywhere between $200-350 a day. Now its about $75-150 (on good days)!

But don't compare yourself to other people! Do what is best for your level, and your accounts!

Good Luck Everyone!

Yea those profit margins in 2008 were insane !!!!!

lol -I was wondering the same thing last night. I try and get $10 (£6) per item - going to hide now.........

oh and my aim at the moment is $40 a day -haha !! I gotta lot of learning ahead......

I had 500%-1000% profit before but this is a nightmare,i could don't sleep well,was always afraid that somebody will knock on my door and always had to open new accounts and so on:)

Right now around $10-$15 profit from each item but i sleep well and enjoy my life

On average, I make generally between £4-16 after all expenses, which is around 80% pure profit, small but when selling in large quantity it builds up.

I also have one off items that cost very little to make (£100 or so), but can sell for £500 or £600. They take a day or so each to make.

Porn eh? I might sell some, although % profits wont really apply with just the few bucks I'll spend on blank DVDs :dance: I'd like to sell some sex toys too, doesn't strike me as something that people will shop around for looking for a better price.

I know there are a lot of sellers of fashion items here... anyone actually sell custom printed stuff? working on that one too.

I used to get around 1000% on some stuff, somehow... took some risks involving a MS DOS bootable USB stick that were very much worth it. These were 400-600$ items but I don't think I ever sold more than 5 a month. My last account I was consistently selling at 100%, 200$ items, but again these are some niche items I guess. If I sell more I'll get closer to 166.7% (may have used a calculator lol) since I found a cheaper source, and I just made 200% I think can't remember what I bought that stuff for...

I don't like it though I would like to find something consistent and more idiot proof, can't catch a break with merchandise that can be invisibly damaged :/ I don't want to be at the post office every day with 100 packages either. Ideally I'd sell a few 50-100$ items a day with at least 200% profit.

I think if you can get a 20-30% return on your investments then id say that's a pretty good return. From then on, its all about figuring out how to sell more and how to increase those returns.

I aim to double my money at the minimum and in most case on antiques I want to triple or more the item.

On the small amount of new items I do sell I look for 5-20 profits after fees per item but like to sell tonnage and move the products in and out.
