sports memorabilia...

What did you sell before?

[/ QUOTE ]

I sold sports cards before, and still have around 1,000 game used and auto cards she is selling off this week. The profits are too small for the amount of work she has to do though, so I'd like to get her something a little more expensive so that profits per listing will be bigger.

what types of sports memorabilia were you suggesting?

If we knew of a good product to sell and a supplier, why wouldn't we do it ourselves?

in college i made a good amount of coin buying used apple ibooks/powerbooks (i thought it was better to have a niche, so only did those two models) from people who didn't put much effort into their postings/didn't have a ton of feedback...and then putting them up under my account w/ a nice page, my large positive feedbacks and also added software and accessories and sold them for a big markup, usually as a buy it now. made several hundred per unit, and sometimes even had the seller who i bought it from ship it straight to the person i sold it to.

arbitrage is cool.


p.s. if you or anybody decide to try this, i usually bought the laptops by sending them a message/making an offer to get them to close the auction early. the key to this is you understanding the intrinsic value of the laptop, getting it for less than this, and then making sure you sell it for its full value, or as close to it as possible.

That sounds cool. I won't be able to do that, as I do ebay mainly passively, and just collect profits from the girl who sells my stuff. All I do is buy the inventory. Sounds like something I definitely would have done when I had more time back in college. Good idea.

Memorabilia that people can't normally get their hands on, such as game used bats, autographs...well, now that I think about it, anything celebrity related.
Something like what a Hard Rock Cafe or Planet Hollywood would have.

There is a guy in my hometown that has so much memorabilia that he is worth millions. He has the things that very few can ever dream to get their hands on. I think he has 1 of 2 autographed baseballs by Pope John Paul, he has a game used bat by Babe Ruth, and too much more to remember. He was just recently featured in the newspaper. That's where I got the idea.
