It's been three weeks since I first laid out my plans to start a mini eBay side business and I'm still not any closer to finding stock; its proving quite difficult.
This Sunday I'm going further afield, however if I do find anything to sell on it will have to wait until after my holiday; another thing with eBay selling you have to allow at least a two week break from listing for a one week holiday if you prefer to be available for question answering and posting, which I do; I wouldn't like to list anything 'unable to dispatch until after...' I don't think that's good service.
I will continue to pursue this mini side business until at least the end of August, after that it will be time to reassess; there's a great article about wasting time on things that will never make you money over at Daily Worth today; worth a read is you are just starting out or if your treading water with a business.
Income streams wise I've sold quite a bit on Amazon this month and I'll be posting a June summary {+ a half year update} on Friday.

I intend (one day) to start selling stuff on ebay to make a lttle money and often have to resist buying things from charity shops etc that I think would be suitable. I'm sure that the moment I decide to 'go for it' I won't be able to find a single thing! Good luck with your hunting! Are you looking for a particular type of item?

Laura, I hope you find what works for you. I think it's a great idea to have multiple streams of income and I'm working on the same. Keep us posted and have a great day!

ReplyDeleteBrie thank you,I think multiply streams of income may be the best thing for the long term; good luck with yours :-)
