Getting ReadyWhere to Source for Merchandise
Discovering unique product sources could determine how far your eBay business goes. At the same time, getting the right goods shouldn't involve a trip to Timbuktu.
Here are some places top sellers usually start digging:
  • Wholesalers
    Try your local telephone directory or a paid wholesale Internet site.
  • Thrift stores
    Find in-demand items at bargain prices.
  • D-I-Y
    Create one-of-a-kind items yourself.
  • Family and friends
    They may know someone or have stuff to sell for a cut.
  • Become a Trading Assistant
    Sell for others who may not know how.
Expand Your Horizons
Scout local retail stores for items that may sell well internationally.
