Default Re: Best Ebay Information Program

Hi Mitch,

Antiques can be a lucrative area on eBay, but if you're going to get most of your inventory through antique shops you need to study the market or you can easily get burned.

Most general line antiques will sell for considerably less on eBay than you will generally find them for in antiques shops.

However, there are some niches within the market that have avid bidders on eBay which can be found quite cheaply in most antique shops.

One such niche is aspirin tins. You won't be able to buy hundreds of them in a week, but they can normally be picked up in shops for $5-10 or less.
I regularly sell these for $40-100 or more on eBay. You just have to spend some time watching eBays closed sales because like anything else, some brands sell well and other don't.

With some work and research you should be able to find several specialty niches such as this on eBay.

Good Luck and go for it.
