What are the most marketable items for sale on eBay?

Clarifications:





What do you think sells the best, not necessarily what sells ';for'; the most?





What items do you personally buy on eBay, maybe that will help you decide?





BEST ANSWER: One word answers don't get best answers.


All clear answers on this are personal opinion unless sources are posted, hence I will give leeway to opinions.





Thanks :DWhat are the most marketable items for sale on eBay?
When I go to E-bay, I am looking for a hot deal on anything. However, I would say that a few things sell better than others:





Items you can purchase in lots, but sell individually. You can do this through warehouse clubs (like Sam's Club), or discount places.





I've always thought that yard-saling is such a missed avenue. Become a professional yard-saler, pick up items that are unique and/or popular and sell them on E-Bay. Most people have yard sales to clean out their crap. But you know what they say about one person's crap being another person's treasure.





Regional Items - are there things you can sell from your region that are easy and cheap for you to get but maybe less cheap in that person's area? It's worth a try!What are the most marketable items for sale on eBay?
New items definitely sell best. Gymboree baby clothes sell well. DVDs also sell pretty well.
eBay has several ways for you to determine exactly what the hot items to sell on their marketplace:





Items In Demand = the most popular items currently within that particular category. To see the In Demand page, go to http://pages.ebay.com/sellercentral/sell鈥?/a>





Hot Items by Category Report = a monthly report that lists the fastest growing categories on eBay for the previous month. Go to http://pages.ebay.com/sellercentral/what鈥?/a> and select ';Hot Items by Category'; from the menu on the left.





eBay Pulse = ';a daily snapshot of current trends, hot picks, and cool stuff on eBay';. Go to http://pulse.ebay.com/ to see eBay Pulse in action.





Merchandising Calendar = eBay promotes specific categories on its home page each month. Savvy eBayers know that this home page exposure results in more interest in such categories. Go to http://pages.ebay.com/sellercentral/cale鈥?/a> to view the current Merchandising Calendar.

why don't you go research Ebay? I don't think it's a matter of what sells the best, it's what sells that offers you the most profit. Shipping 5 profitable things is better than shipping 30 things that might 'sell the best' but offer you the same amount of return as the 5 things. Look for something that gives you the most bang for your buck, not what you can sell the most of.
it depends on the time of year i suppose ive sold alsorts on there and 1 thing could sell great at summer but in winter it wont go for as much i realy aint got a clue what certain thing sells best but as a parent i would say chidrens stuff
That's kind of tough. I would dare say that rare pop culture items are the most highly marketable. Even ridiculous things like Mary, Mother of God burned into a piece of toast. Dick Cheney's infamous birdshot pellet that shot his buddy sold for something like $20,000 USD. Elvis and Madonna memoriblia seem hot ticket items. I know I buy antiques (mainly books) but I don't think that represents the masses to well. I'm just a nerd.
Items that sell best are things people want most - the current 'hot' items like ipods or the new xbox systems are good examples. Also, ebay has become a good place for collectors to buy and sell things they collect - like comic books, beanie babies, stamps, or antiques.


Basically, its supply and demand. If you have something a lot of people are looking for, it will sell, and for a good price.
Goodness, what doesn't sell on Ebay? I personally buy a lot of equine supplies and have sold a variety of things there as well. Instead of having a garage sale, I will go thru my house and list items on Ebay and get lots more money for it there.
Sell your body! It sell`s!
