As some of you know Roy Halladay Youth Jersey , I spent many years buying and selling both on and offline and several of my products are based upon my own experience in this area. I know that the vast majority of my customers and subscribers have an interest in trading whether it be on eBay or at the local market but more and more I am seeing people with completely unrealistic expectations of what they will be able to do. Most commonly these unrealistic expectations are in respect of how much it actually costs to purchase specific products and what they can then be sold on for.
I regularly get emails from people who want to know where they can purchase products such as mobile (cell) phones, new release DVDs, Playstation games and similar at Jesse Barfield Youth Jersey , say, a 50% discount to resell on eBay. The fact is that such a thing is not available - it is a simple case of supply and demand and competition.
Take DVDs for example, most people think that these are excellent products to resell on eBay because they are very popular Roger Clemens Youth Jersey , not particularly expensive and easy to package and ship. Unfortunately, they could not be more wrong. The DVD market is one of the most competitive that there is - take a look for yourself and see how many auctions there are on eBay for DVDs at any one time. I have just looked and counted almost 300,000! At any one time there will only be a certain number of buyers wanting to purchase a particular DVD and if you take into account the numerous different places there are that each buyer could purchase from Paul Molitor Youth Jersey , it is likely that in general, there will be more copies of an individual DVD available than there are buyers to purchase them. This situation causes prices to fall. The other factor that forces prices down is the fact that one DVD is the same as another. By this I mean that from a buyers point of view, there is no difference to a new DVD purchased on eBay to one which is purchased from their local DVD store. Often the only way to differentiate is on price and of course George Bell Youth Jersey , the only way to make the price more attractive to a buyer is to lower it.
The above reasons help to explain why the wholesale discount on a new release DVD is just ?1 or ?2 at most ($2 or $3 roughly in the US). When you take into account the fact that the large retail chains can purchase thousands of DVDs at a time and receive a bigger discount than individual traders, you soon see why it is very difficult for a small business to compete in such a competitive industry. You simply cannot purchase new release DVDs at 50% discount and even if you could, it wouldn't be long before prices were forced down as there is always someone willing to sell a little bit cheaper than the next man.
It isn't just DVDs that fall into this category. Take mobile (cell) phones. Here in the UK you can walk down just about any high street and get the latest phones either free or for a minimal token payment. The stores are relying on making their money from the line rental contract that you will have to sign in order to get the phone. Of course Randal Grichuk Youth Jersey , the actual cost of the phone is not free - most new mobiles are actually worth ?200 or ?300 which means that if you want to buy a batch of phones at wholesale, you are going to be looking at a pretty high unit cost. As with most electrical products, the market is competitive and prices have been forced down which means that the difference between your wholesale buying price and your retail selling price is minimal.
There are numerous products that suffer from the same market conditions as DVDs and phones and newsmall traders really should avoid trying to sell such items at all costs because it will usually be frustrating and ultimately not financially rewarding. When trying to decide what products to sell Joe Carter Youth Jersey , you need to be thinking about the type of market that a particular product is sold in. If there are already numerous sellers and many large companies selling at considerable discounts this is far from ideal. The exception to the rule is if you are able to add value in some way to make your 'offering' more unique. I wrote about adding value last year in one of my newsletters - you can read it here: the end of the day, it is all about research, being realistic and having an understanding of the market that you want to operate in. Whilst it would be great to be able to buy and sell new release DVDs (or whatever) all day long Roberto Alomar Youth Jersey , doubling your money every time, I am afraid that this is just not going to happen.
Floating down the river in your canoe or your kayak is a tremendous experience. You can get in a good workout with your paddles, or you can have a much more leisurely experience. However Jack Morris Womens Jersey , you are usually limited with the types of activities you can do because you have to be careful of not tipping over. These boats are very unstable and even the slightest movement can cause a big problem. If you want to have more options when you are on the river, you should think about getting kayak outriggers or canoe outriggers for your trips.
They are long, narrow hulls or pontoons that are attached parallel to the main hull of your boat. These are attached by rigid poles. When these are attached Roy Halladay Womens Jersey , it stabilizes the boat and makes it a lot less likely that it can turn over. The weight makes it difficult for the boat to capsize in one direction. The buoyancy of the same outrigger makes it difficult for the boat to capsize in the opposite direction. One of the benefits to using a canoe or a kayak with this accessory is that it makes it easier for people to use. This is especially true of beginners. The thought of having your lower body inside a kayak when you capsize is terrifying to people who have never had to complete a roll to get back upright. It means that you do not have to be nearly as concerned about that happening.
