Subject: Learn My Profitable EBay Arbitrage Secret ~
Selling Vintage \">LAST WEEK I MADE OVER $600 ON EBAY ~
MY SECRETS REVEALED!
As you can see from the below screen shot, I sold nine of the ten
prints I listed for a total of $604.38!
(click on the image to enlarge it)
After allowing for eBay and PayPal fees, the cost of the prints and
mats, I banked a very cool profit of just over $400!
_Not bad for a few hours "work"!_
Now, if you are anything like I was when I first discovered this
business on eBay your head will be in a bit of a whirl at the moment!
You are excited at the thought of selling pieces of tattered paper
for hundreds of dollars but the questions keep coming:
_"WHAT Makes This Business Work?"_
_"WHY Are These Pieces Of Paper So Valuable?"_
_"WHERE Can I Find Them?"_
_"HOW Do I Know Which Ones To Buy?"_
_"HOW Do I List Them To Maximize My Return?"_
_RELAX! _
My NEW video series _PRINT SORCERY _ is all about sharing my
knowledge and experience to help you use eBay to supplement your day
job or pension or even to grow your own full time business if that is
what you want.
FIRST THINGS FIRST, WHY DO I SELL VINTAGE PRINTS ON EBAY AND WHY
SHOULD YOU CONSIDER DOING THE SAME?
On the face of it, making money on eBay is simple, all you need to do
is find out what sells well, negotiate a deal with a wholesaler to
obtain inventory, list it and collect your money!
Of course it isn't quite this simple, if it was we'd all be selling
high end electronic goods and be making tens of thousands of dollars
profit.
The reason why is simple ~ it is because of competition.
Competition drives down the prices of these consumer goods meaning
that unless you can negotiate the very best deals with the
manufacturers it is impossible to make a profit.
Most of the top selling niches on eBay are dominated by a few big
players who make a profit despite selling at rock bottom prices
because they leverage their huge buying power to negotiate the best
deals directly with the manufacturers.
It is impossible for the little guy to break into this business
because even if he could obtain a supply of inventory (which often he
cannot) he can't hope to beat or even match the prices paid by the big
players.
So do you join the masses trying to eek out a meager living as your
profit margins are squeezed ever thinner or do you go against the herd
and focus your efforts where you won't be wiped out by the
competition?
MY ADVICE IS TO FOCUS ON VINTAGE COLLECTIBLES.
Their rarity means that you don't have the mass competition problem.
Although there are hundreds of successful sellers on eBay selling
vintage prints, it is extremely unlikely that the exact same print is
being sold by more than one seller at any one time.
Since there is no mass competition, profit margins are a lot
healthier (I'm talking 200%, 300%, 400% and more!)
Vintage prints are easy to source. You don't even need to leave home!
So no more scavenging amongst piles of worthless rubbish at boot sales
and thrift stores.
Once purchased they are easy to store as they take up very little
space.
They are simple and cheap to package and ship. No need for bubble
wrap and peanuts - all you need is an envelope!
This business is fascinating to do - every print is unique and there
are a million different subjects just waiting to be discovered!
This business model is based on arbitrage, which is all about
exploiting the price differences of identical items in different
markets.
I unearthed a searchable online resource at addall.com where anyone
can find and buy the printed work of almost any artist you care to
name. There are literally hundreds of thousands of printed works —
many long since out of print.
You can buy these for a few dollars, get them delivered to your door
and have them quickly listed on eBay and selling for ten, twenty, even
thirty times your purchase price in a matter of days!
WHY DOES THIS WORK?
There are two main factors at work here:
1 eBay's massive traffic.
2 The ability to include high-quality images of the prints in your
auction descriptions.
Obviously, eBay has massive traffic and addall.com only receives a
tiny fraction of the traffic that eBay receives. Consequently, it is
possible to buy an old book full of vintage prints and flip the exact
same book on eBay for a profit, although much higher profit margins
can be achieved by selling the prints individually.
It is important to include high-quality images in auction
descriptions. This is another 'eBay factor' that works in the seller's
favor; the ability to include high quality images of their prints in
their eBay auction descriptions.
It is said that 'a picture is worth a thousand words,' and this is
certainly true when selling art on eBay.
_eBay is THE place where millions of collectors gather, hoping to
find rare \">HOW CAN YOU CASH IN ON THIS METHOD?
To research the value of any find, simply run an “advanced
search” on eBay and select the “completed listings” option.
This will bring up all recently-closed auctions and fixed price
listings.
Search the category "_art from dealers and resellers>prints._"
As you peruse this list, you will see many old prints changing hands
for incredible prices.
You can further refine your search to zero in on the prints most
likely to be taken from old books and most likely to yield a healthy
profit.
Having built a list of sought-after print niches in this way, the
next step is to find out of print books containing similar items
available cheaply online, and this is where addall.com comes in.
_IT IS VITAL THAT YOU DO YOUR RESEARCH BEFORE SOURCING PRINTS. _
You must establish that a healthy market exists before buying any
items for resale (this rule applies to ANY item you buy to resell on
eBay).
To help you out with YOUR research, I created a video series that
teaches you to successfully research, buy and ultimately sell your own
prints at incredible profits!
In my new video series, you can watch over my shoulder and learn the
precise techniques I use when researching prints AND successfully
sourcing the books they originally came from.
Additionally, I will reveal several very successful eBay sellers who
have been selling in this niche successfully for years.
The videos are jammed packed with tips, tricks and techniques that I
incorporate daily in my own vintage \">WHAT'S INCLUDED?
