Ebay no investment method

I've seen this method quite a few times on quite a few forums, its saturated and to be honest is it all worth it for $100? To much time and effort and you might only make an additional $10, $100 isn't even guaranteed..plus like people said you'll be under the 21 day hold..
 
This is a semi-drop shipping approach... it definitely can be done, but it has its drawbacks...
 
Thank you all off you guys who contributed to the post. It has been so long since I was here but am glad my post has helped many of you. Be sure to get a system that work. Soon I will be posting another valuable post that will be driving money in your accounts very very soon. Lets Rock
 
Shipping from canada to us is expensive. I doubt the $150 will cover it, unless they live closer to border.

Also, everyone who knows about it, is already doing it...

especiallly now that usps has almost doubled its shipping charges. I can still see this happening though it you aren't afraid to risk shipping internationally. Customs seems to have this thing with holding packaging for 30-45 days just because they can(i know this because i work at post office). But in my experience buyers oversees are willing to pay more for video games and accessories than in the us. They also will pay more for shipping as well. Will def. Try this out and see!!!
 
The best way this works is Amazon => Ebay Dropshipping.

If you get any complaints about "amazon packaging" just say you use a Amazon Multi-channel fufilment center. Then say that you sell items on ebay and amazon and you have your items shipped to amazon, so they can ship them out to your buyers quickly and in good packaging.

Lol it's always funny when they receive a receipt from Amazon in their package with a lower price than what they paid. On a related note, I recently ordered the walking dead graphic novels for a friend through ebay last week. The package arrived with a walmart.com receipt in it, and upon inspecting the receipt, the price was actually higher than what I paid! Even with an affiliate commission the buyer using walmart as a dropshipper would have lost money. tldr; It's important to start your auctions at a profitable point.
 
Tell them in auction listing, to use YOUR checkout link to complete payment. and just send them a payment link you generated through paypal for the amount of the bid. Yes this works. and it's not against the rules.
Could you explain this to me? In the auction state that they'll use MY checkout link. Upon my receipt of the winning bid, I send them a Paypal payment link that I created via Paypal? Are you saying that I send them a Paypal invoice?
 
I actually did try that method a year ago with video games. It was a piss poor experience. At first I made like 60 bucks, but the more I got into it the less I made. I didn't try it with cameras thou, but I srsly doubt you'll be making 100$ per hour doing that. You'll be lucky if you make anything.

to be honest with you guys i also did tried this method out a year ago i made about $2000 what i did was put my own twist to it basically what i was doing is Finding US Ebay sellers that were selling the IPAD2 then i was searching through google for pictures of the IPAD2 that looked like it belong to me

EXAMPLES

notices how the images look like they could easily belong to me? well those were the kind of images i was putting in my auctions i would sell them on the UK Ebay Market because the British Pound is worth more than the dollar basically once i sold an ipad2 i would go back to the US Ebay Market then ship it out to the UK Buyers i was doing this until ebay got Jealous and thought i was making too much money to quickly so they started limiting my ebay accounts and paypal accounts i stoped because i had other sources of income and i didn't want to deal with the hassles so yea this how i was using this method Blackhat Style lol i might have another go at it ago but this time im going to be buying ebay and paypal accounts and another thing to take into account is that this is not a long term income it's more of a source to get quick capital for your other online ventures like buying fiverr services, covering domains and hosting costs etc you get the idea

Nice plan but it would be so much easier with a few hundred bucks start up to avoid 90% of the mess. I know its kinda the point to make money from nothing but damn just get 200 dollars and save that much money in effort. Oh and its legit that way so you can use an eBay account in your name probably already with a rep. I'm going to do some math on a few items and see if this still works at least for what I usually sell but people from in my country (US) pick my auctions and low BIN items all the time so It would seem not only can you do this internationally but just by watching domestic auction also. I always know when my price is too low when sellers buy my stuff. Online and in RL at flea markets and such.
 
Thanks for the great idea OP. Here is where I see this as a problem for me, I am a new Ebay seller, and currently Ebay hold my funds until I have provided a tracking number to the buyer. I think that this is a great idea once a seller has become established on Ebay.

Also I was not aware that you would be able to provide an alternative payment option outside of Ebay. You said that this was not against their TOS, so I will have to check that out to see if it's accurate.

Thanks for the idea, and I wish you much more success with your methods!
 
This does sound like a good idea Thanks! Altough I do have a bit of a bankroll so I guess I could have the item shipped to me and then post and ship to buyers here. I just need to find some items with large enough margins, and there lies the rub.
 
It does work, but i won't consider it as a long term investment since the seller can always take down a product and you will be lacking a product that you already started selling.
