Where can I find lists of home being sold at auction?

January 13th, 2013 3 comments

I’m looking for local auctions of homes for either tax sales or foreclosures. I’ve checked out the local county website but nothing is available there except the auction process,no listings. I’ve checked the local paper for public notices, but nothing is listed there either.
There are numerous websites that list foreclosures and auctions that will take place on various dates, but without paying to join these websites I can only obtain limited amounts of info.
Basically I want to obtain this info myself without paying to join a website.

Try www.auctionzip.com it lists auction houses and what they are auctioning off that month, some auction houses list estate sales and home auctions. There is a tab for home auctions all around the US.

How do you make money on Ebay?

November 26th, 2012 6 comments

Yeah, I know you sell items and hopefully make a profit. However, I was looking for more information on legitimate wholesalers, if it’s smart to only use dropshipping wholesalers, or to just drive around and hopefully find goods that are popular on sale or clearance and resell them using ebay.

Thanks so much, just trying to get started.

It is difficult to make any money by buying wholesale and reselling on eBay because so many other people are already buying things from the same wholesalers. It is very competitive so you have to keep your prices low to sell so there is usually a very low profit margin on each item sold.

Drop shippers can be kind of scary because you have no control. You can’t see the product before it is shipped and you need to depend on them to ship the item promptly. If things ship slow or arrive damaged it hurts your seller feedback and you get negatives. It can also be a mess to deal with returns of damaged items since you have to deal with the drop shipper. I have used a few drop shippers, but only those that I have tested several times by making purchases and have the items shipped to me to make sure they are dependable.

People who make the most on eBay are the ones who search estate sales, garage sales, swap meets, liquidators, quitting business sales, Craig’s list, etc. for items that are being sold at well below their value and re-sell them. Of course you need to become knowledgeable about the value of the items you see and spend most of your spare time looking for items to sell.

Can you really make money on Ebay?

Hubby and I will both be taking 16 hours in the Fall and we need to have some money coming in! Do you think I could make some decent money buying things at Estate Sales, and selling it on Ebay? If you or anyone you know makes a decent living from Ebay, please give me some tips!

Stay away from dropshippers – they’re death on ebay.

You MAY be able to make money if you can;

Pick the right stuff
Sell it when there’s demand and not much competition
Do it often enough.

Selling on ebay is pretty tough these days. Making a living doing it can be even tougher.

I’d suggest that you spend some time on "seller central", the main ebay forum for sellers;

Update of Ebay Sales for Items Purchased at Garage/Estate Sales, Thrift Stores, & Auctions!

July 29th, 2012 10 comments

Recent Ebay sales from garage/estate sales, thrift stores and auction finds. In an effort to spark sales and generate some cash flow, I have been using Best Offer, which has been working out quite well. I am getting a bit less than I want for some items, but if they aren’t selling I figure it is better to just sell those items and move on.

July 16th, 2012 11 comments

My Ebay sales for the week of August 7-13, 2011. Another good week of steady sales, plus sales on Amazon have really picked up. So glad to be over the slow month of July!

My favorite sales were my old broken iPhone (the volume doesn’t work), which sold for $144.01 (this was the second time it was up at auction as the first winner didn’t pay); the vintage Polaroid Land Camera lot that I paid $5 for and that sold for $59; and the Pioneer Seed snapback hat that I paid $1.25 for and that sold for $28.01!
