Ideas Posted: 12-18-07 13:50pm
i'm trying to think of things to sell on
ebay that will make a good profit. i sell
the kids clothes when they grow out of
them but i want something that i can
continually churn out and will cost me
very little to make but i can sell for a
profit...
any ideas?

lmao jules has a wonderful idea lol. i
knew a lady in IL who would go to garage
sales and buy big kids toys like climb ons
and power wheels and other hot ticket
items, clean and resell them for a profit.
my friends and i use to drie around
housing on thursdays and ppl would throw
away things like that and carseats and wed
clean them and make like $40-$50 off them.
if you have a quality printer you could
make things like birthday invites and such
custom for people.
i always wished i could do something like
that but i really suck at making anything.
If your good at sewing u could make custom
purses or something with different
fabrics, like with a sewing maching.

A friend's mom buys ladies high heeled
shoes in every large size she can find and
sells them on ebay. Apparently the
trannies can't find large sized women's
shoes and this is a hot item to sell. Who
knew?

costumes and dress up stuff from a lady
who worked at disney and other places that

stuff

I have an idea of making dog beds. I was
thinking about how much I hate my dogs bed
being on the floor and people tend to step
on it. So I decided to make my own actual
dog bed and thought it would be really
cool to sell. People like it when things
are customizable so find something you
like to make and make it so they can have
you customize it for them! I'm going to
sell dog beds when I get about 5 that i've
made so people can see them. I buy things
from thrift stores, also places like home
depot or lowes and craft stores to help
build my stuff. I just refinish it make my
own dog matress/pillow and sell! BAM! Lol

My mom and I make rag quilts. They're so
easy... if you can cut and sew a
semi-straight line, you can make a good
rag quilt.

I was thinking that. My
mother works at a craft store and she said
people come in all the time for things to
make their pet bed. They don't feel like
making them but no one sells them. I have
so many ideas! I'll get some stuff
together soon (i've been busy at work) and
show you the finished product!
