At this point in time, you should be mostly sold out of selling the odds and ends that were laying around your house. If you know how to use the completed item research tool, you will need to solely rely on it when going out and hunting for deals.
This is where you go hunting for inventory at outlet malls, the mall and other storefronts. Look for inventory from stores that are clearing things out. Discount orientated stores like Marshalls, TJ Maxx, Nordstrom Rack and Ross are perfect to find deals at when sales are on. Jot down any potential items on paper and if you can, take a quick snapshot with your camera phone. You’re just looking to see what’s out there at this point. Take a look at the ebay pulse to give you a good idea of what you should be searching for in these stores.
Take home the list of deals you found and sort out which ones are good and which ones are bad. Do some completed item research on ebay to see which items are selling and at what price. Once you have found out which ones look profitable to sell (after listing fees), head back and grab the items you want to start listing.
Buy multiples of the profitable items if possible. Selling multiples of an item you only have to list once makes you more money and saves you time.
Thinking this is all just a waste of time and there is no profit to be found? We used this exact same strategy and bought a pair of jeans for $9 at a Marshalls and sold them for $100 on ebay.
It doesn’t take very long to see what you can sell on ebay for a profit after a few trips to the store. If you want to take some old clearance inventory off their hands, develop some relationships with the store managers. If the items still sell well on ebay, its worth your time, and usually they are more than happy to have you clear out their old stock.
