Money Making Tip

Books, audio book cassettes, and VHS tapes very often are the last items to be picked over at rummage sales or thrift stores; but I have found them to be the lowest cost, most profitable items to sell online. Most can be picked up for next to nothing, especially if you are shopping the last day of the rummage sale or at closeouts at thrift stores. Some vendors actually give the books away to clear space.

With a partner last Fall, I set up a dedicated division just for selling the above items. We are averaging over $14,000/month in book sales on Amazon and eBay. Our inventory cost to buy these books has never been more than a few hundred dollars for a full truckload.

Why would I share this secret? It works! There is no way we could obtain all of the books available.

To Find the market value for a book, tape or DVD, simply enter the ISBN number into the Amazon or eBay search Box.

Promote high-end products where possible. Since Amazon's commission rates are relatively low, you'll want to promote products like electronics or software where you'll get a higher profit per sale. It's a myth that it is easier to sell a much cheaper product. The trick is in the targeting. To sell a high-end product, you need to target the product to a high-end consumer, someone who is willing to spend money.
