Default Re: Sharing a BIG part of how I make money

What % of your auction winners fail to send money?
What % of your auction winners send only some of the money?
Per 100 shirts sold, how many hours do you spend on the following activities:
- packaging each shirt
- dropping the package off at the post office
- answering emails, dealing with fraud, etc.

What can you do to automate any of the above?

Do you sell only to Americans or do you do international sales as well?

Will it be difficult for people who have no ebay rating whatsoever to sell things? If so, what kind of strategies can they use to bump their rating up as quick as possible?

I think the most difficult part here is finding goods at a deep enough discount in bulk volumes that will sell in a timely fashion. What kind of strategies do you use to find these goods? As you mentioned if shirts aren't selling, then the market is probably over saturated.
