Default How I'm Making Money In This Economy

I am finding my buying and selling activities are really picking up now and am making an extra $400-500 per week on a very limited part time basis. Along with my other business (carpet cleaning) I am making some good extra money. If you live in an area where the weather is crappy, there is very little competition for selling Chattel. No one is having garage sales so there is less used stuff out there. However, the demand for used stuff is very high out there and people are really scooping my deals up left and right. I am even getting calls from people asking if I have certain things that I would sell. I think that people are looking to buy used rather than new right now if they can.

Default Knowing how to trade chattel is a valuable skill....

Hi,

Thanks for your post! That's very interesting, that second-hand stuff is in big demand right now, it's understandable.... One reason might be the stock market hasn't done too well the past year, and when people's investments are down they tend to look for how they can save wherever they can....

Knowing how to buy and sell chattel is a very valuable skill. I have to thank Gordon for writing "The Chattel Report" - it was the first product I ever bought which I saw advertised on the internet, and it's possibly one of the best ways to get started in business.... :)

Gordon and Rick Smith's latest product....

Default Re: Knowing how to trade chattel is a valuable skill....

That is exactly how I got started in chattel too! I bought Gordon's report and tweaked a few of the ideas a little to fit my own style. I tend to deal in lower dollar items $150 or less and place my own ad looking for things to buy. I also use an idea I got from Jim Straw's report, "How to make $1000-$5000 . . ." to get PAID to take peoples stuff. I make a profit on both ends. I make money taking the stuff away from people that don't want it, which pays for my ads, and I make money selling the stuff and best of all, I can give the people buying it a real good deal becuase it costs me little if anything.
