If you haven’t already noticed there have been a lot of changes with ebay recently.
Probably the most significant one is ebay stopping multiple listings of ‘Buy it now’ products.
You are only allowed to have one multi-quantity fixed price listing per product at any one time. I think they have probably made this change to cut down on the ‘cluttering’ of the site.
A way around this is to list one of your products as an auction listing, and to list this several times . Select the ‘Buy it now’ option within the listing too, with multiple quantities.
Customers will then be able to bid (Select a high starting price) for your product auction style. Or ‘Buy then now’ without bidding.
Hopefully ebay won’t pick up on this strategy and alter their rules to combat it!

If you put your life in terms of months, it puts things into perspective. Lets face it, you’ve probably got til about 70 years old to take appropriate action with your online business. By the time your that age you may be too set in your current ways to start anything like this.
For example if you are 30 years old now, and you’ve got till 70 years old.. thats only 480 months. If you don’t do anything this month, you can take one month from that, then you only have 479 months left to take action and so on.
Its counting down now, so get going!

When selecting your niche on ebay or on any other trading site, you need to be wise in selecting your products.
When purchasing your first product you need to consider the following.
How much is the product per unit?
What are the freight costs?
What are the Taxes?
What are my eBay and Paypal fees going to be for selling the product?
If you don’t plan and estimate these few things, you won’t make much profit from your ebaying.
Weigh everything up before you jump in!
