    Buy from Carboot Sale - Sell in Ebay

    Hi guys,

    I just want to share my part time home based work for someone who wants to make extra pocket money.

    Well what Im doing is I buy stuff in Carboot sale and Sell them in Ebay and Im always making a lot of profit by doing this for example I always look for Haynes car manual in Carboot sale and usually bought it for only 99p but I sold it in Ebay, the minimum manual I sold at the moment was £3+ and the maximum sold was £8+ (excluded p&p).

    Also other stuff popular in ebay are like Children activity toys, baby stuffs, branded clothing, shoes and bags, so there you go guys, if you're always in carboot sale and have spare time to make money at home, try buy and sell
    Not an expert, I only try to help.

    Very entrepreneurial,you have business savvy



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    My friends do the same thing and I am thinking if I can bring some stuffs from Pinas and sell to ebay. Like hand made hammock, crafts but don't know exactly the immigration rules

    I bought some UK 2nd hand home decors stuffs, pigurins,toys and sells to Pinas already. I think that is also good idea. I start buying small items now for collections and later send to Pinas for Christmas business selling gifts. I also buys 2nd hand gowns for a rent gown business. Planning to buy ice maker machine too for a small business in Pinas.

    Look for job lots from other countries, especially unusual stuff. A guy in Egypt sell papyrus bookmarks and oils, stuff like that can sell well.

    I've got bored of Ebat, too many charges and competition now, so the profits are not worth the hassle for me when I can make more just by selling one ebook.

    Ebay is certainly not what it used to be. I used to buy a lot of stuff wholesale, then sell it on ebay. Used to do quite well.

    As has been mentioned, there is too much competition now, so it hardly seems worth it.

    It's probably stiil a good way to pick up things at carboots & then sell them on.

    Don't make promises when you are in JOY. Don't reply when you are SAD.
    Don't take decisions when you are ANGRY. Think twice, Act wise. BE happy.
