    Any ideas on how to make money on ebay? I'm not talking millions even 500 a month in additional cash a month would be nice. I had a friend used to sell Wii's back in the day when they were in high demand but those days are over. Some others have told me to go to liquidation.com and buy certain products in bulk and try to sell them on ebay but i don't see much profit margins in this. Anyone got any good ideas? If not ebay.......something else maybe craigslist?

    I'm a bit desperate for some extra side money and any ideas would help. Will rep good ideas.

    Used to sell cell phones on eBay/Craigslist. Made 7k one summer. iPhones ruined the market.

    If you have an extra bedroom or a sofa bed you could rent your place out on couch surfing websites like Airbnb. It's not a lot of money but it's great for some extra cash. Made about 2k in 4 months for only 33 nights rented out total in those 4 months.

    I've heard of people who go to garage sales and thrift stores and buy things really cheaply there and sell them on eBay. I suppose you have to have a sense of what's good value and what will sell.

    I've heard of people who become pawn shop dealers too.

    You could try your hand at some pyramid schemes such as those miracle juices or selling energy

    Used to buy and sell concert tickets in college. Made huge margins. Huge. The second hand ticket websites kind of killed that off though.

    There are plenty of hidden gems out in the Craigslist free section. If you are looking to resale that would be a strong start
