Is Flipping Items On Ebay Still Worth It Today?

in finance •  7 years ago  (edited)

A couple of years ago I used to make money reselling items on ebay.
I sold everything. Electronics, computer games, kitchen utensils, clothing - you get the idea. I did this so I could earn some money with something I had fun doing while studying at the university. I went to garage sales, thrift stores etc., found some cheap stuff and sold it on ebay.

Well, today I was thinking about that time and I really would like to start doing it again. Not full time of course. I just enjoy finding little gems in a pile of rubbish and flip them on ebay. Plus, the extra money never hurts.

So is there maybe a little "Flipping community" here on Steemit. I wanted to know from you if reselling is still a thing or if the market is already saturated.

If it still works, what sells nowadays? Back in the days, electronics sold in no time. IPods and all this stuff would usually sell after a couple of hours. Of course people won't go crazy about an old IPod today, but you get the idea.

Tell me in the comments below if there is still money to be made. Are you a reseller? What sells the best for you?

Greetings! I really enjoy shopping on eBay because they offer many products that meet my needs as a buyer. And after looking at https://ebay.pissedconsumer.com/review.html I realized that besides me, many other buyers choose them. The platform is easy to use and most transactions go smoothly. Even if there are any questions, I am sure that their team will help me.
