Default What are your montly average sales/profits

Hopefully this question doesn't rub anyone the wrong way, but I'm just wondering what your guy's average monthly sales and profits are across all your accounts. I have 3 accounts and I sell about 5K a month and profits are usually around $3500-4000. Do you guys sell on ebay as your full time job? I'm seriously considering it, but I sell high risk items and if anything happened to my distributor I would be done for too.

If you plan to sell High Risk items full time your going to be making stealth accounts daily. To each their own, I'm sure your a grown adult and can decide to continue but I wouldn't.

Your question(s) have been asked way too many times and your never going to get a real answer. Be ready for sarcasm up the wazuuu!

if you are Making $4000 PROFIT on $5000 in Sales, I would Not worry too much about losing your distributor, Id worry more about recieving a NEW set of BRACLETS,,,the kind that are CHAINED together

I wouldn't recommend selling your super secret "high risk items" for a living.

I would say that unless your making enough money on eB to see you through a potential of 6 months "down time" then dont rely on it.

Its too volatile the way it is right now and sooner or later you will get that down time regardless of how well you think you know the system.

I think you are all being extremely unfair accusing the OP of selling foo foo items. For all you know his supplier may well be a shop lifter and the items are genuine.

My monthly turnover is usually in the region of 'pretty good' but my monthly profit, after every thing is taken into account is normally around the 'lot less' figure

Hope that helps

Very true. That is how i started out. Even though i am not really proud of it. The deals i got were amazing. Iphone 4's for 80 bucks. Iphone 3's for 60. And all other electronics were amazing deals too. But all things like this come to an end at some point. Either you or them go down. In this case it was them. Later on i found some pro lifters. Prices were also great. But i decided to stop. Felt like this business was not for me. Stealing is no good. Encouraging it isn't either.
