If you have ever read an article about eBay, then you will have seen the sorts of incomes people make: it isn’t uncommon to hear of individuals making thousands of dollars per month on eBay.
Next time you log on to eBay, look at how many PowerSellers there are: you’ll find quite a few. Now consider the fact that each and every one of them has to be making at least $1,000 per month, because that’s what eBay requires to be one of their PowerSellers. At the Silver level, all of them make a minimum of $3,000 every month; at the Gold level, it is in excess of $10,000; and at the Platinum level, they pull down $25,000. Then you have Titanium PowerSeller, which is the highest ranking, and for this, you must be making no less than $150,000 in sales every month!
The truth about eBay income in 2024
The fact that these people exist should give you an idea about the possibilities of income here. Most of them never even set out to set up a business on eBay; they only started selling a few things and then just kept going. Lots of people have made it their full-time business selling on eBay, and some of them have done so for years by now. Can you imagine? Everything else is just pure profit to such people after they have sold the stock; they don’t pay a single coin for business premises, staff, or anything else. There are multimillion-pound businesses that make less in actual profit than what some of the eBay PowerSellers do.
You don’t even need to quit your job and really go for it; eBay can be used to make a significant second income. You can pack up orders during the week, then take them down to the post office for delivery each Saturday. There are few other things that you could do with your spare time that have anywhere near that kind of earning potential.
Moreover, it does not matter who you are, where you reside, or what your appearance is like. Some PowerSellers are very old or very young. Others live out in the middle of nowhere; selling on eBay is one of the few alternatives to farming or very poor employment opportunities. It smashes down the barriers to making money that the real world is always throwing up. No job interview, no long commutes—just post if you have the time for it, then do so.
Thing is, if you know where to get something fairly cheaply that you could sell, then you can sell it on eBay. Since you can always get discounts for bulk at wholesale, that’s not exactly difficult. You buy a job lot of something in demand cheaply and sell it on through eBay. You’ve already got no set-up costs to start making your money.
If you just want to get a feel for things before committing to actually spending any money, it is quite within your means to sell some of the things that lie around the house. Rummage through that cupboard of stuff you never use, and you might probably find lying there a few hundred bucks’ worth! That’s the magic of eBay: no matter what you’re selling, there’s always someone out there searching for it, and since they’re searching for it, you don’t have to lift a finger to get them to buy it.
