Selling for a profit on eBay is not hard when you have kids.
People are earning hundreds of dollars a month by selling kid related items.
Here are some general idaes to help you get started.
Kids Items You Can Sell
Clothes, toys and videos are good money makers on eBay.
Go to eBay and look up a "lot" of size six girl's cloths. You will find they are expensive!
The average cost for a lot of 20 good conditioned colthes is about $35.00.
When your kids grow out of their seasonal clothes do not throw them out. Bundle them into differnet lots by category.
For example bundle girls dresses separate from girls play clothes, but only do that if you have at least six of each diffreent type.
Lots of any item sell better than single items unless the item is unique or high priced.
For example, a hand embroidered dress that you paid a lot for would sell better by itslef instead of bundled with other basic dresses.
The next item to lookup on eBay is toys.
Most toys in good condiiton will sell for a lot of money. One idea that works well is to buy hot items in October at Wal-Mart or Toys-R-Us and sell them on eBay.
Busy persons are willing to pay extra for the convenience of getting the items delivered to tehir home.
For example, last year a Mega Power Ranger came out in stores around October and sold at Wal-Mart for about $45.00.
The same item sold on eBay for up to $65.00 plus shpiping.
The Yellow Power Ranger is yet a second example where the store cost was about $6.00, while the same item was selling on eBay for about $20.00.
Have your children ever received duplicate birthday or Chirstmas presents?
You can sell those on eBay also. Look at the eBay listings for itmes of interest to see if selling on eBay is worth more than returning the item to the store.
Kid's videos and DVDs are also good money-makers.
Bundle about there of these together, and you can usually make about $7.00-$12.00 per bundle. Bunlde more and the money goes up. Disney movies in hard cases can go for a hgiher amount. This also works for other types of movies as well.
Save those McDonalds toys. Some Kids Maels toys sell high.
Take the new Star Wars toys from Burger King...Very collectbile. You will find them selling on eBay from $1.00 to $5.00, not includnig shipping.
Ebay has a whole section devoted to dolls and baers. If your daughter doesn't want her collectible dolls anymore sell them on eBay.
Kids Crafts You Can Sell
Around the holidays, especially, have your children place tehir hand in paint and make a print on some quality paper.
Add a holiday related poem and you have a great carft to sell on eBay.
Have your kids make gift jars with ready made mixes.
For example, hot chocolate mixes in a jar with a plastic spoon tied to it with a ribbon. Dip the end of the spoon with white chocolate.
Baby Items You Can Sell
Used baby items are really profitable. Baby items cost a lot of money, especially in their first year. Any "gently" used items are generally good selelrs on eBay.
If you have baby coupons that you will never use, sell them on eBay!
Left over diapres and formula sell well also.
A lot of 35 used cloth diapers usually sells for around $38.00 plus shipping.
Four Fuzzi Bunz daipers (cloth diapers with hemp inserts) can sell for as much as $40.00.
There you have it. Plenty of ideas for selling those leftover kids items on eBay...And you can even make a nice proift while you're at it!
