How much are you making?

How much do you make per item?

Keep working at it and keep your job as long as you can handle both... you honestly will know when it is time to quit

over 50k per year is not that hard when you are full time selling with a good product...

As you're so keen to share you business model and income figures with us all, what's the cost price of the items you make $17 on?

If they cost you $2 and you sell them for $19, then let me know what it is and who your supplier is.

If it costs $1000, then good luck to you and I hope you don't get too many returns.

I make enough a year to pay off my student loans and buy a car. This thread is like my sister asking me how much did I made last year. Simple, I dont tell her, not even my mom knows. And she thinks I am always broke because I dont have a real job. I love it when she comes over and starts to clean the house because I am home all day. I love yea mom

No enough to quit my full-time job.

But then again my full-time job is not so bad, below is the view when I have my lunch break

One person could be doing 5,000,000 in sales and only net 10,000....another person could be doing 15,000 in sales and netting the same. It causes a conflict of sorts to discuss that type of thing. Of course if you are only netting 10k off of 5M, youre doing it wrong!

I buy my product at $1.43/unit. Sell them for around $24. Makes me a profit of around $17.

How is this info useful to you?

This information would be very useful. I'm pretty sure we all share the same goal, and that is to make money. I was hoping to see some numbers from you guys so that I can feel that I'm on the right track. Since I've started this eBay thing, I've learned real quick that there is a lot of money to be made. I was hoping to hear from an eBay veteran that has been doing this for 10+ years tell me how much they are making. Maybe in 10 years if I work hard, I would achieve what they have done.

MM78 · #35 05-25-2015

No one is going to tell you what they make.....let it go! lol.

There is several members handling millions of dollars a month.

There are only two answers to this question:

"Enough" or "Not enough".

Your job is to make sure YOUR answer is the first. Don't worry about anyone else's business.

What I make or what anyone elses makes here is none of your business, and has 0 effect on your life or your finances. As I said, either you're making enough to live the lifestyle you desire, or you aren't. If you're living the lifestyle you want, then don't worry about anything else. If you aren't, keep working until you reach that goal.

Some people want to own a jet and a private island, others are happy living on an few acres of land in the middle of nowhere, savoring their peace and quiet. Your business should meet your goals, what everyone else is doing is irrelevant.

wtfebay · #39 05-25-2015

Since we are sharing info, Nick why dont you throw out this $1.43 product so I can undercut you....

Taking The Micky · #40 05-25-2015

The thing is Nick, I have been in e commerce for over 15 years and I do very well. The one thing I have learn't is don't waste your time wondering what other people are doing or earning, use that time to make yourself more money.
Set yourself realistic goals of what you want to achieve, then beat them.
And dude, get yourself on amazon as that were the real dollars are made and if your margins are true, you have the perfect model for FBA.

jeffweico · #41 05-25-2015

My best GUESS would be that most people selling online as a full-time job make between $50,000 - $100,000 per year. Part-timers probably average $10,000 - $20,000.

I am talking PROFITS, not GROSS SALES. And they are just my GUESSES for averages. We have some forum members making more and some making less. It depends on how much time you put into this, how much research, how many accounts you have, what you sell and where you sell.

OP is the type of person who loves seminars and bogus MLMs where they have some wanker show you the sweet ride they just "bought" and you can too!

Which one was it that used to promise BMW 7-series cars to top sellers? Oh that was some funny sh*t.

Yeah, I STILL see these infomercials sometimes. In my area there is a real estate flipper one that was running CONSTANTLY this weekend. I cannot believe that people fall for this crap.
