Are there any massive ebay stealth seller?
 

Just wondering if there are any stealthers that make serious $$ with their stealth accounts. (I.E. over 250k net)

Re: Are there any massive ebay stealth seller?
 

Yup....We have members whose monthly fees exceed that...

Re: Are there any massive ebay stealth seller?
 

huh, their monthly fees exceed 250k? on this forum....?

Re: Are there any massive ebay stealth seller?
 

Im kinda confused on what he means also?
Monthly fees exceed?
Do you mean profits exceed that monthly?

If that is the case thats pretty crazy...thats 3 mill+ annually

Re: Are there any massive ebay stealth seller?
 

Why is that crazy? If people have the right products, right market, right number of accounts, right work ethic, right savvy...it is possible. Takes time and persistence but nothing is crazy about it - daunting yes but doable :thumb:

Re: Are there any massive ebay stealth seller?
 

I guess crazy is not the right word...impressive is more like it
The only reason I implied crazy is because to get to that kind of a number with stealth seems....tough. Especially seeing that to get anywhere even close to that one would need to obviously submit docs, but I guess theres a way around everything

Hard to believe but hope it's true, that really mean sky's the limit. But then again paying 250k in fees doesn't mean you aren't losing money.

Re: Are there any massive ebay stealth seller?
 

Yes, we have members who pay hundreds of thousands of dollars a month in ebay fees.

Well no where near them numbers but i do have to admit its fun to sit down to ship 70 items get 20 printed out then it says ship 88 items :) I have made 5k in a day on just one account .. and yep have to submit docs and ein to keep a going that way win some lose some but live to fight another day "friday" hehe

Re: Are there any massive ebay stealth seller?
 

If they utilize Amazon as well, they might be paying a million dollars in fees lol.

Re: Are there any massive ebay stealth seller?
 

100% true.

Re: Are there any massive ebay stealth seller?
 

5k/day huh...very impressive..I guess you would be considered a millionaire lol

Re: Are there any massive ebay stealth seller?
 

Yea but I feel someone pushing those numbers would not be cashflow neg

Re: Are there any massive ebay stealth seller?
 

To answer your real question, in the USA, an EIN account that has access to capital, has good and popular products that can be relisted time and again with excellent support has no limits to how much profit it can make.

A lot of us are doing pretty good. Unfortunately, most of those members don't stay active of this forum very long. They are busy counting $$$$$ :)

Re: Are there any massive ebay stealth seller?
 

We have members who post screen shots of ebay fees in years past. Of course you get the average member who says it is BS and others who think they are bragging etc.... so they stop posting. Not all of us want to argue on the internet :)

one quick example.

Hehe..pretty encouraging to see that I sell in the same category as this dude..potential is huge,

Keep in mind margin tho..one can be turning over 100k/month but if margins are only say..8%, its netting $8k/month..just an example

Re: Are there any massive ebay stealth seller?
 

Headaches are huge too!

Diapers. Want to make piles of sales at decent profit, sell diapers and other such every day needed commodities that hold a big margin if you know how to buy.

In my little nitch, I manufacturer only the consumable aspects. Everything else is sold to gain the repeat consumable end of the business.

Re: Are there any massive ebay stealth seller?
 

50k is not same as 250k in fees....

Re: Are there any massive ebay stealth seller?
 

He stated he has it x12

Re: Are there any massive ebay stealth seller?
 

It depends, everyday product type items can do well but it has to be at a deep enough discount where the consumer would prefer waiting for it to be shipped 2-6 days instead of simply driving 2min to the local store and paying a couple bucks extra to have it right now.

Re: Are there any massive ebay stealth seller?
 

One account and only one example........ If you look at that dudes posts you will find other examples from him alone. He does a killer amazon business as well by-the-way.

I could not care less about finding more examples or wasting time searching or looking up inactive members. Believe it or don't. Who cares either way? :peace:
