I understand the part about "buy cheap books from store, sell for more on eBay"
But what do the Instagram accounts have to do with it?

you have to first, buy the books once you get the offers you will pack the books up and you will deliver them via shipping to wherever the person lives!
not that many steps if you think practically, this is easy for the people who live in the US so they can just go to garage sales and also big warehouses sales to get the books from and trust me its easy!
it can be any category as long as its around $1- $5 you can get them and then sell them and make a huge profit!
again, it can be any category!
you can get a LOT of traffic from Instagram, what I did is that I had 10k bot followers in my account and every day I would do the people in the book niche and i would do about 15 to 20 people every day and trust me almost all people agreed and did a sfs with me, ( shoutout for shoutout) that is how i got around 100k total followers to vist my eBay listings! Facebook helps too

Not sure where to start. This is hardly a method, buying anything and selling it for more is hardly a method without going into a LOT more details. You cant just buy any old book, you need to know what sells, pricing, a lot more goes into it than just seeing a book, buying it and listing it for more on another marketplace.
FACT: no dollar store books sell for $20 - $30. going to a thrift store to source is one thing but suggesting people waste time going to a freakin dollar store to source books for arbitrage is not a good idea in my humble opinion. If you did do that, what books were they, how much did they sell for, what was the title? Don't get me wrong I know that arbitrage is possible but what you are suggesting sounds like it was a freak occurrence or a fluke that you had any success at all.
I just want to point out that reselling can be very profitable if done correctly. reselling books is one form of it and there are tons of other forms and niches one can sell in too.
OP, do you think that the IG was the reason for the ales, or do you think it was just the books you were selling and the customers searching for books they wanted. I can't imagine the book category is an impulse buy for people seeing it on IG especially $1 brand new books from a dollar store.
What actions did you do on IG to make this work? How much did you spend to make $1500. Have you made a profit? what postal service did you use? these are all questions I'm sure anyone reading is wondering. All the best and good luck with the project you are now working on.
Edit: I see you answered a few of them in the post you were making while I wrote this. Thanks!
Nope!
Your name and post tells me you are probably a teenager trying to sound cool. Try telling Bezos that legal commerce is for sheep LMAO

Hi, Everyone. I'm sorry if I left any details that were important but I have to say that I'm very happy that you guys are taking part in this and showing your interest and now @William702 I live in Canada and here dollar store sometimes has the sales in which they sell the book for $1 to $5 the books that mostly got sold where the first copies, first copies are the ones which are not the remade version and thus they have a higher value even if you are buying a second-hand one! I used the Amazon app to check the value of the book while I was in the store, Here in Canada Indigo sells $1 many times, it's like they are always there!
yes, I was targetting the people who would like the kind of books I was buying. For example, when I had too many Love story etc books then I would dm the person who had an Instagram account focused on emotional love quotes and I would sen them an sfs request and normally they would agree to it as they also want to grow their Instagram page, I didn't spend that much, I just bought a ton of books ( 150) from garage sales, and stores, the best part was that many people were hoarding a ton of first copies which brought a huge value to them as they were old and also the first edition of the series. My total sales were around $4000, shipping took most of it but still, I got the money which I needed at the time to help my mom because she got divorced and also I had no job! I knew a friend who had a dropshipping warehouse and I sent him all the books individually packed and some which were in a bad condition were in a group of 5. the shipping was made easier and also I didn't have to go to the post office every time I received an order.

big thumbs down! the best books never go for a $1, the ones you will find at the dollar store are shit even a prisoner wouldn't read.
on top of that books are not cheap to ship, a hard cover book can take $5 to $8 to ship. So even if you find a gem nobody will pay $20 plus $7 shipping.
OP is probably spending $1000 a month on books and making like $100 profit!

That's selling fake copies of copyrighted products.
Can you make some dime? Probably!
