Do You Have Kids ? How To Earn Hundreds of Dollars a
Month by Selling Kid Related Items on EBay
Selling
for a profit on eBay is easy when you have kids. People
are earning hundreds of dollars a month by selling kid
related items. Here are some general ideas to help you
get started.
Kids Items You Can Sell
Clothes,
toys and videos are good money makers on eBay.
Go
to eBay and look up a "lot" of size six girl's
cloths. You will find they are expensive! The average
price for a lot of 20 good conditioned clothes is about
$35.00.
When
your kids grow out of their seasonal clothes do not
throw them out. Bundle them into different lots by category.
For example bundle girls dresses separate from girls
play clothes, but only do that if you have at least
six of each different type.
Lots
of any item sell better than single items unless the
item is unique or high priced. For example, a hand embroidered
dress that you paid a lot for would sell better by itself
instead of bundled with other basic dresses.
The
next item to lookup on eBay is toys. Most toys in good
condition will sell for a lot of money. One idea that
works well is to buy hot items in October at Wal-Mart
or Toys-R-Us and sell them on eBay. Busy people are
willing to pay extra for the convenience of getting
the items delivered to their home. For example, last
year a Mega Power Ranger came out in stores around October
and sold at Wal-Mart for about $45.00. The same item
sold on eBay for up to $65.00 plus shipping. The Yellow
Power Ranger is yet another example where the store
price was about $6.00, while the same item was selling
on eBay for about $20.00.
Have
your children ever received duplicate birthday or Christmas
presents? You can sell those on eBay also. Look at the
eBay listings for items of interest to see if selling
on eBay is worth more than returning the item to the
store.
Kid's
videos and DVDs are also good money-makers. Bundle about
three of these together, and you can usually make about
$7.00-$12.00 per bundle. Bundle more and the money goes
up. Disney movies in hard cases can go for a higher
amount. This also works for other types of movies as
well.
Save
those McDonalds toys. Some Kids Meals toys sell high.
Take the new Star Wars toys from Burger King...very
collectible. You will find them selling on eBay from
$1.00 to $5.00, not including shipping.
EBay
has a whole section devoted to dolls and bears. If your
daughter doesn't want her collectible dolls anymore
sell them on eBay.
Kids
Crafts You Can Sell
Around
the holidays, especially, have your children place their
hand in paint and make a print on some quality paper.
Add a holiday related poem and you have a great craft
to sell on eBay.
Have
your kids make gift jars with ready made mixes. For
example, hot chocolate mixes in a jar with a plastic
spoon tied to it with a ribbon. Dip the end of the spoon
with white chocolate.
Baby
Items You Can Sell
Used
baby items are very profitable. Baby items cost a lot
of money, especially in their first year. Any "gently"
used items are generally good sellers on eBay.
If
you have baby coupons that you will never use, sell
them on eBay! Left over diapers and formula sell well
also. A lot of 35 used cloth diapers usually sells for
around $38.00 plus shipping. Four Fuzzi Bunz diapers
(cloth diapers with hemp inserts) can sell for as much
as $40.00.
There
you have it. Plenty of ideas for selling those leftover
kids items on eBay...and you can even make a nice profit
while you are at it!
