Are you looking for product idea to sell on eBay? It is important that you choose the right products to get start your eBay business. Many people fail making money on eBay because they choose wrong products to sell. I would like to share with you products not to sell on eBay.

1. Products price below $10

These items could be high view and high demand. But shipping charges is the big problem; it may cost higher than the item price itself. This can be very repellent to buyers; the products can get cheaper at their nearby store. For small items or accessories, you can group the items selling in sets like wedding accessories sets.

2. Products everyone else are selling

Many sellers think the best way to get started on eBay is to sell products everyone else are selling like ipods, cell phones, and laptop. A big No, No There are a lot of competitors for one product and the sellers who selling these items are more establish and their prices will always be cheaper because they buy wholesale stock in larger bulks than you will. They have good reputation on eBay and trusted by buyers. You will need to put more effort to sell these items and end up price war.

3. Things you love but not the buyer

Many sellers think that find a product that is wonderful new and it may be could next best trend in the market. It could be but you have to do a lot of lonely work to educate people on the benefits of the products; you need magazines, newspaper and word of mouth to build awareness to the market.

4. Items that difficult to ship - e.g. plants, flowers

These items can be selling well on eBay but I don’t suggest if you are first starting business on eBay. These items have high shipping risk, particularly if not packed properly. A good reputation to a new seller is very important to stay longer on eBay. So not recommend to sell the items which has high risk to have a bad negative feedback.

5. Large items

Are you thinking selling furniture or pianos? It might be wise to start with small items unless you already have experience selling and shipping these large items. Shipping is the major work for these items. Besides that, these items sell less often than mid-priced items.
