How to make money with craigslist and ebay

If your buying and selling bigger ticket items like appliances, various motorized vehicles, etc, you can make upwards of several thousand dollars per week.

It really depends on what you are capable of buying and selling, your location and how hard you are willing to work. The number of hours I work has varied from less than 20 to over Looking online for items to buy? Driving around picking stuff up and delivering? Listing the item on Craigslist?

Fixing and preparing items for sale? I can fit two appliances in the back of the Tundra without the trailer, and do that as much as possible as it can be a hassle driving the trailer all over the place. Also it saves on gas. I have absolutely no problem moving any washer and dryer just about anywhere. I start running into problems when moving 30 year old freezers up steep basement steps. They tend to weigh about lbs. I avoid moving those by myself if the steps are too steep to get leverage from.

In our garage and under a covered patio in our backyard. Currently I have a good backlog of items. The more items you have, the more that will sell each day. Do you turn the items around quickly and do you sell via any websites other than craigslist? I would guess that the average turn around time would be a day or two at the most.

Many items resell the same day. Some less desirable items, like an old yellow clothes dryer, might take 3 days. I will sell certain electronic items, clothing, shoes and other smaller items back on eBay when it makes the most financial sense. I am interested in buying and reselling handbags on Craigslist.

Do you have any suggestions to guarantee authenticity? I used to work for a bank. When they were training us to detect counterfeit money, we were told that the easiest way to detect counterfeit money was to handle real money.

Does the house match the item? Do they have a family? A dog, some kids? The ones that I had a bad feeling about, for one reason or another, always ended up being a big headache. They tend to reveal all you will need to know about an item when you are trying to decide whether to purchase or not.

What do you estimate your hourly income is, both during the first month you started a serious effort on Craigslist, and today? Hmm, I was able to pay all the bills for our family of 6 when we started and it was tight. Over two years later now and hourly income has probably quadrupled. Things are going pretty well. If I was single doing this, I would be working hour weeks and making a mountain of money.

What techniques do you use to spot deals quickly? Do you find that most sellers are available to have you pick things up that day? I have lots of windows open at the top of my browser.

The pages upload in somewhat regular intervals. Like Appliances-general should update every 10 minutes or so. Those all have slightly different refresh schedules and you just have to watch the ones you are interested in individually. This is most important for free items, as there are hundreds of people, at least in my area that are sitting at their computers trying to get free items.

I got a few free items this past week where the people told me how many other responses they got. This is less important for other categories with lower demand. Free section items are the hardest, cars are probably number two as there are hundreds of dealers competing against each other for the next used car that gets posted.

Electronics and computers have a lot of guys doing it full time as well as appliances. You need to have google chrome and download the send from Gmail extension. This enables you to simply click on the Reply to: All you need to do is type that you want the item and can come right away etc. You need to put the ball in THEIR court.

Ask them when a good time for THEM would be for you to come pick it up. They will then throw out a few times and you pick the best one or suggest a time slightly later.

If the seller is at work, then nail down a time like 15 minutes or so after they are to be home. Do whatever you can to nail down that time or again you might lose the item. You can obtain and turn a profit on just about anything that is sold on Craigslist. However, certain items are more difficult than others.

For example, I tend to stay away from Apple products. On Ebay the selling of Apple products is so popular that the prices are basically fixed. Just give it a try. You will know exactly how much you will get for the video game before you even buy them. Once you know how much something sells on ebay, try to get more for it on Craigslist, plus you will save on all the ebay fees etc.

If your going to do it, start now as the closer to Christmas you get the more people are going to be buying the games. I think that might even deserve its own post. I will write a post on talking down prices soon. The easiest way to talk down prices is to send an email asking a few questions about the item and then make an offer. Let them know you can come right away. Over the phone is the next way.

Then ask if there is anything wrong with the item. Follow that up with your offer. It can be awkward, theres almost no way around that. Be confident with your offer. One thing you need to remember.

So remember that when you are trying to get the price down on an already good deal or very high demand item. For instance, what is the ratio of free stuff and stuff you buy from craigslist? Then when we met up, all the cards were four years newer than what he had told me over the phone.

I talked him down to reduce my risk. Got home and found out the entire set of cards for that year was selling for less than what I had paid for about cards.

I had been lied to, but I had chosen to still take a risk. I kept calling him until he took his cards back and gave me a mini sd card and an Ipod nano. Stick with what you know and with what you can clearly research. Control your risks as much as possible. How do you handle this?

I use lots of discernment. There is almost no way around that. One way is getting a tablet computer with a 3g card to take along with you while you are driving. I use the Samsung Galaxy tab 7inch. Also, you need to be able to respond to emails while you are driving around.

When someone responds while you are out, often times you only have minutes before they will move onto the next person. I have someone who works for me part-time picking things up. Spotting the deals and responding quickly enough via email or phone is most of the battle.

Everything else the pickup, item inspection, cleaning, pictures, selling and delivery can be systematized and controlled for the most part, through training someone else.

Sell It Now! How to make money on eBay in just 37 minutes

Is it worth it to ask the seller to text you a picture before driving out? For me it depends on the distance to their house. The further away they live, the more questions I will ask before I pull the trigger and drive to their house. Trust your gut feeling. Try not to get into situations where you are desperate for an item, or where you have to have it today. In general, an item posted without pictures is not a good sign. I know you specialize in appliances and could probably offer the best advice on those, however I only have a small car and am worried about not being able to transport large items.

I am pretty knowledgable about electronics — cameras, computers, etc. How do I do that on Craigslist? How much of your time percentage-wise do you spend: Driving around picking stuff up? He already said what he was spending his time on:. Ryan, I am interested in buying and reselling handbags on Craigslist. Great blog, thanks for sharing all your insights. I posted an add asking for work or cash. What can I expect. This was my last resort to get money in hand to pay Mortgage,bills,food etc.

I have looked for work for the past 3 years. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I would recommend hitting up the Gig section and refreshing it every 10 minutes, and be ready to reply or call on the ads that get listed. You have to be quick. Same for the free section, one nice free item is worth a days work, or more! Focus there as well and pick off a handful of free items, clean them up and resell them.

You gotta hustle, but doors of opportunity will open to you if you try hard enough. If I made the jump to 40 hours full time, how much can I expect to earn? Also, do you do any Ebay arbitrage? For each given category, there are only a certain number items that you can flip for a good profit each day. Depends on the market your in. If you branch out into more categories, the sky is the limit. Certain times of the year are better than others, like summer for example.

I still see lots of room for growth. The key is knowing everything there is to know about a market. I will sell smaller items that sell for significantly more money on eBay, or where the demand on eBay is a lot higher. I will probably write a post on that soon. Thanks for your note! I read over your entire website and you sound like you are in the exact situation I am in. I have employed all of your tips and advice and also have discovered a few of my own.

You seem to be a little bit bolder than I am however in the sense that you like to go to the peoples home. If it is an electronic item like an iPhone I usually require the box the item came in that way it is almost impossible that it would be stolen that way.

I have two questions for you, do you ever feel like you are putting yourself or family members in harms way? Like do you ever allow your wife to meet people to sell stuff or have her meet someone to buy something.

My question is what do you tell people when they ask you what you do for a living? Buying and selling things on craigslist? I have been asked this question quite a few times but I also have a part time job and am a full time student so that is usually my answer.

I feel like if I treated this like a business I could make GOOD money doing it. Have you ever checked about tax laws and the legality of buying and selling things on craigslist not for a few bucks on the side but an entire family supporting salary?

I live in Maine and would like to be able to scan the entire US for items I want including Model T Ford parts and neon items.

How do I go about scanning all locales without clicking on every state in the US? Please advise and Thank you! The best way to do that is actually to go to google.

This will search every craigslist in the country all at once. You can also set up an RSS feed for that exact search on google so that you will be notified automatically when one comes up for sale. Great seeing someone else who does this. I started doing this out of college and it has been a great source of income. Almost too easy I know you know what I mean.

I have been interested in creating a business plan with craigslist marketing. Hey Brett, thanks for the note. One of the hardest things in the world is finding good employees that you can trust.

Look at their history, especially their employment history. Did they keep jobs a long time? What do former bosses say about them? Past behavior is the best indicator of future behavior.

The employee pays for the item out of pocket, picks it up and cleans it to sell. I find, negotiate the purchase price and sell the items. They drive their own car, pay for their own gas etc.

This causes the employee to be obviously more invested in each purchase because their potential profit is on the line for each item. On average my main guy could earn dollars per hour after expenses for his work, pretty good part time income! Or should i sell cheap but enough to still make a profit but to sell quicker?

Depends on how much cash reserves you have and how badly you need the money or storage space. Those are the main variables. I like your tips but one of the mistakes I use to make was making an offer up front. This anchors the person at a price without knowing their rock bottom price.

My technique has been refined over hundreds and hundreds of transactions over the years combined with some techniques I learned from NLP and marketing books. The first thing I ask when I see an item I am interested in is how much they want.

This is how it usually goes:. Some people make an offer at this point. This buys me time and allows me to get an immediate opportunity to buy it WITHOUT locking me in at a pricepoint. Another great thing about this is that the more effort they put into this sale ie. I was going to reply and explain that the reason I send in my offer is to save myself the trip, but I noticed you are addressing that issue while at the same time not locking yourself in.

The script you wrote above is probably the best way to get the absolute lowest price possible on each item while at the same time controlling risk of wasting your time. I will occasionally ask if they will take less after I arrive and inspect even if the item is in the condition I was expecting. The one thing that keeps me from being this aggressive, in general, is that I want the seller to be happy with the deal. Thanks for the comment and I would love to hear your thoughts on some of the other topics, or any ideas you might have for future posts etc.

Hello- I am very inspired by your website- I want so very bad to make some money on the side with craigslist to suppliment my income — I used to sell things on ebay but like you said they eat you up with escalated fees and paypal fees and not really worth the effort anymore- but i am very confused about how many items i may list on craigslist at any given time.

Could you possibly shed some light on this subject for me? Thank you so much for your help. Hi Becky, thanks for the note. Hi great website love all the information I have a question where are u finding the appliances to resell? I was thinking about buying on CL repainting etc.. Hey Joe, thanks for the question. I find all the appliances I buy on Craigslist. I pick them up, clean them up, fix them if needed, paint them if needed and then resell them at the market rate. I also usually deliver and haul away the old appliances.

The bigger the market obviously the more potential there is. Let me know if you have any other questions. Hi Ryan, What do you think of trying to sell our faith based artwork through Craigslist? Some people might be willing to.

If there is no way to purchase the item locally or call a local number, ads will often get flagged and deleted. Let me know how it goes. Drive it around, all the while having it posted for a good bit more than I paid. Rinse and repeat a few times a year. Washers, dryers, ovens, refrigerators. Some dishwashers but not many. Gas dryers as well, but not as often. Just buy one, clean it up, learn out to take it apart and clean out the inside, and repost it.

Offer delivery and haul away of the old one. Hope this helps, good luck! We are planning to offer a service of selling goods on Craigslist and splitting the money. Can you give me a short list of the easiest items to sell on Craigslist?

We are doing a 3 week blitz, so not interested in items that take a really long time to move. Tools, bikes, appliances, newer electronics, laptops and nicer desktop computers, real wood furniture or nicer furniture. If you have some specific items you have questions about, shoot me an email. What do I do if multiple buyers want my item?

Im new and I dont knkw who to sell my item to. First come first serve is the general rule of Craigslist. If they want to schedule a time later in the week, go on to the next person and so forth. I was wondering if you live in a big or small city.

Perhaps there is a different niche in different areas. The flip side of the high Craigslist use is that people usually search for items like theirs before they price it and so price fluctuations are somewhat subdued. In smaller markets you might be more likely to get very good deals on items as people have even less of an idea at how much their item is worth.

That said, you need to be able to diversify more in smaller markets. It will take more work up front learning about other niches, but once learned, they can pay off for a lifetime.

Just a few thoughts, hope they help! It will pull up all the hot dog carts listed in any Craigslist market across the country. Keep calling and be polite. Be firm and just keep asking when a good time to bring it by would be.

People would rather refund your money than deal with the stress of continually thinking about an unhappy buyer returning something. Squeeky wheel gets the grease. Let this be a reminder to check things out as thoroughly as possible and only buy things from people that you are comfortable with.

If you get a bad feeling about the transaction, walk away. Someone else will buy it and they will have the money up front. Is there a good method to do this to expand your market? You can test it out, maybe set up a Google voice number and see if you ever get a call on an item, or email from using one of those other sites.

I have a question regarding postings to sell product on craigs list. I have numerous postings to sell products of my business, ie , brick, stone etc. In the past never had problems with deleted ads. Now most get deleted, why? I use 6 to 8 pics per ad. Either that are they are in the wrong section if there is By dealer section where you are posting the items. Hi Ryan and thank you for creating this awesome site.

Are fitness equipment and service or sporting profitable areas of CL? But, the glory of Craigslist is that it allows you to try risk free.

Give it a shot! Up until a month ago, when you looked in the for sale adds, bikes, furniture, household etc they would be highlighted until you cleaned your cache.

Also, when you done with furniture and went to the for sale again to go from furniture to household, the last one you were on would show a dark border around your last choice. How come they stopped doing that? It probably has to do with your browser not being able to recognize a visited link. Mine is still working on my computer.

Maybe try Google Chrome and see if that works? I am looking into the world of buying and re selling. Do you have any tips for me or paths i could take. I am not looking to get rich, I am just looking for a hobby to make extra cash on the side. If it were to turn into a decent income then that would be great. What would you try just starting out? I have a couple hundred dollars to invest and just FYI I live in Kansas in a college town, not a huge city.

Thanks man looking forward to hearing back from you. Check out this post: Do you think buying spring products like weed eater and yard tools in winter at low price for spring resale is a good ideal. Same with heaters etc in summer.

One of the best is window air conditioners. You basically get paid to store them. If you have a shed, fill it up! Lately I have had items flagged and deleted that I have had no problem with in the past. Would be so great if they gave you some type of reason code. Try making the ads slightly more unique and see that goes.

I listed an item on Craigslist that I am trying to sell for my boss. I should have listed much higher. What is proper etiquette in getting back to this interested person? I would just tell them that you are helping someone else sell the item and that you had to adjust the price.

Ryan, I sell a lot of stuff on Craigslist. I wanna sell stuff for other people. Can I put an ad on Craigslist showing that I will sell your goods or post the ad for them.

Am I allowed to do that or does my selling for other people have to be advertised somewhere else or word of mouth. You could post an ad in the services section and you might find someone that is looking for help. But each person has to figure out how much their time is worth.

As soon as we had our first really hot days, I sold a working, used central air conditioner on Craigslist. I was shocked when it sold within the first fifteen minutes that the ad was online. I also got my ad posted around 10am on a Saturday. Then I tried selling a more unusual item this Saturday. Same deal on the pictures and copy, but this was for an EcoZoom rocket cook stove for camping. Unfortunately, Sporting Goods now has bunches and bunches of exercise equipment ads that posted after my ad went up.

I may have missed out because by the time my ad was listed, potential buyers were out doing other things, no longer at home, sifting through Craigslist. At pm on the same Saturday, I thought about my ad title and realized that if you list this way:. Or, it might need those two keywords next to each other.

I would give it a few weeks and see if there is any interest, might even take longer. I purchased a Scotsman Ice Machine on Craigslist. It had ice in it when we looked at it and picked it up. We took it home and it will not produce Ice. Should we take him to small court or what? Sorry you are going through that, obviously frustrating. Was it a business you purchased it from? Images and description wording, how big of a role do you think those play. A guitar in a guys messy room looks bad.

A guitar cleaned up and placed against a white backdrop looks good. A guitar in an old stand outside of a rustic barn at the hour before sunset looks poster worthy. Any pointers or bits of wisdom in this realm? I just wrote this past this past week, I think it will be helpful. Backdrop is big, I wrote another post about how to make a great ad. How do you decide what price to list each item? Do you use any research tools or is it all done manually? The prices vary by season, market, condition etc etc.

If I respond to that email that has a weird email address, will the potential buyer get it? Just respond to it and the original sender will get your response. Try posting your ads from a different account. I made a decent amount of money with laptops on Craigslist.

Do you know of any people like yourself who have had success selling services regularly on Craigslist? I have used Craigslist to advertise. And I have gotten responses. But maybe there is something I am missing. It really depends on the service. Niche services tend to do pretty well because people actually have to look pretty hard to find someone to do the work.

I even got a rude phone call from someone who laughed at me and called me names. In a case like this, am I missing something?

How To Make Money Using Clickbank Craigslist and eBay Easy Strategies

I truly have not been able to sell anything on Craigslist. Occasionally people that are frustrated with the high prices will lash out, like you experienced. Try adjusting your prices to at or a bit below the going rate. Maybe sell in bigger lots.. I started doing just business buying from craigs list. I did my first 2 transactions yesterday, it was very exciting and I made good money. So whats the problem you ask okay I will tell you many people have been telling me how dangerous it is.

My first response was I will meet with people in public places with cameras… Problem solved. Then I heard of at least one person being robbed at gunpoint at a Starbucks. This question is for the people that have done many transactions hundreds Have you ever been robbed and did you stop after being robbed? Someone passed counterfeit money to my wife one time, but that was the worst.

Use common sense when carrying out your transactions.

Make Money on Craigslist and Ebay? - Mamapedia™

Craigslist is far, far safer than people think it is because of the perception given off by the media. Ryan, I sell a lot of stuff on CL and I constantly get responses from people who simply ask me to call them and leave their number. A normal person will eventually respond. I bought a pair of jordans last week, they were advertised as authentic and I checked them out myself, now I found out they are fakes, what can I do?

They would then probably then apply pressure where they needed to to protect their brand.

That would be more effective in my opinion. Hi Ryan first off I just want to say I love your website it is SO informative and has been so helpful! If I was to sell items for someone else who already has a Craigs account I will be listing the items, responding back to the messages, packaging them up and shipping them handling all aspects of the Internet on craigslist what should I charge this person?

I can post an item in less than a minute. I think it looks desperate. Just give the facts and let the item sell itself. If you try to hard to sell it to someone, people will sense it.

I see great pieces, priced well, sit for several weeks. Is that typical for used furniture? Furniture is a great niche to get into, but certain unique pieces can take a while to sell. Especially if delivery is not an option, as it can be difficult for people to arrange a vehicle to pick the furniture up. Necessity furniture is a different ballgame though.

I would classify beds, dining tables, dining chairs, desks etc as necessity furniture because people cannot go very long without it, so it usually sells pretty quickly. But like anything, you will learn a lot once you dive into it. Does Craigslist receive a percentage of items that are sold such as power tools no vehicles involved..

I have several larger power tools that I would like to sell. Also is it better to have a Craigslist account even though I do not have a lot of items for sale?

They charge a listing fee for a few categories, but not power tools. You should be good to go! I am trying to start selling something and maybe making a business out of it. I am planning to sell mine somewhere just not Craigslist and I was wondering do you have an ideas of what to sell???

Start with something that interests you and that you know that there is decent demand for. Learn, adjust and go from there. I called her on the same day, 2 hours later, she refused to return money. She said the was final sale nothing written on the sale page though. I took it to the apple store they said track pad is damaged and betray could die anytime. I called and text her thousand times she just said this was final sale. Buying computers can be tricky as you really have to be able to thoroughly test them before purchase.

Sorry to hear about your experience. Great blog, I have a question, how to post 10 or 20 listings at once to craigslist. What am I doing wrong? Any tips or questions? Also, most everything listed on free site in my area are animals, scrap wood and free firewood. Is it just my location? How much was the mower new? That might be a little steep on the price. You might need to adjust your price a little bit but it will eventually sell.

My husband died and I just want to get rid of things. For example, I have a snowblower and a generator, but am not sure they work or not. Or is it a better idea just to find a charity for these items? Sorry to hear about your husband. Ideally it would be best if you knew someone that could come by and help you test out a few of the items before you sell them so you will know their true condition prior to selling. Or have a friend that is more familiar with the items sell them and you can split the money with them.

I think my son sold my laptop in craigslist. Ryan, I have sold my home here in apache junction az and am in need of making as much money as i can from my household items, etc.

I have many posts on craigslist right now, put some on saturday and sunday. And tricks to getting people to respond? Please let me know if you have any pointers. Great pictures, great descriptions and great prices. If they are high demand items, they will sell quickly if the first three are done well. Low demand items will just take time, not much you can do to sell them quicker. What is your advice to spotting and quickly responding to free items on CL.

I have lost out on some really good items in the past few days. Yeah, you have to manually check the pages to look for the most recent postings. The RSS feed is too slow and the items will be gone by the time you get the alert and respond. I have a lot of great condition clothing I would like to see at low prices. Is that worth it? Do they have to come pick it up or do I have to mail it?

But I have so much and i want to get rid of it. What do you think? Otherwise selling clothing on ebay is better and then you just ship the individual items as they sell. I am fairly new to Craigslist and have to empty my storage space. I have a collection of about college sweatshirts and T-shirts, ranging from USC to NYU. I have no idea what I could sell the collection for. I see nothing like it anywhere on Craigslist. Can you give me an idea of what I could charge?

Clothing like that would be easier to sell on ebay and ship one item at a time when they sell. Why are people being nosy with things I sell on facebook marketplace I post an online on marketplace, they ask if I have a physical store, online store, why am I selling new items , send friend requests, do I work for the brand name.

I dont understand this nosiness. Is it an age gap culture conflict? How should I politely deal with this without losing customers?

They are trying to buy from someone they trust, and they are asking questions to figure out if they can trust you. I would work to come up with ways to communicate that people can trust you. You might possibly offer a little more information about the items you are selling, for example. I have a lot of camera gear to sell that will be over 2k. Should I take the money or have them meet me at the bank to deposit the money first?

Seems like asking someone to meet me at the bank to first deposit the money might scare them off. Or meet at a local police station, many have safe zones to complete transactions in. Hi Ryan, If my son is listing and taking phone calls on items I am selling, what percentage do you think I should give him for the help? It depends on how expensive the items are. I LOVE your site….

I have learned so much. I have been selling on CL for almost 3 years. I started with used furniture that we just cleaned up and flipped.

Then I realized that I could paint and so I started painting furniture and really upped my profits. We sold our old couch … and a painted Ethan Allen blanket chest … oh and my old rug….. I think they are priced right … and I even reduced them to get some interest. I am so frustrated. Can you think of any reason for this??? Just a slow month? People realizing they are not getting enough tax refund this year?

We had a great January so I am thinking that maybe people spent all their Christmas money an now have non left! Hi Stephanie, I would need to know more about your situation. My encouragement would be to use the down time to diversify into more types of furniture etc.

I know certain types are purely seasonal like outdoor furniture etc. I hope that helps and let me know if you have any other questions! I have been selling mostly used furniture, but have not had much luck on Craigslist. I mostly get scammers that want to send money orders , etc. It has become very annoying and there does not seem a way to avoid it when I post on Craigslist. Are they doing anything to remedy that problem. I am not mostly posting on Offer up and FB marketplace because there seems to be a better authenticity rate among buyers for me.

I know, that can be frustrating. I was thinking of using the FBA Fulfilled By Amazon method. Do you have any other suggestions… maybe requiring them to buy more than one at a time or something?

Or maybe just finding a higher priced item. I would sell them in bigger lots to increase the profit per transaction, especially if you are meeting them somewhere. Lots of time invested in each transaction that way.

Or try ebay or possibly Amazon, but the competition will probably be pretty fierce those routes. Plus I got flagged on a TON of items that were never flagged before and there was no reason for such flagging.

Any suggestions on how you post whether in be individually via your email or through the business account? You might just go back to posting individually, and have someone you know also help you post via their account. The business section of Craigslist can be pretty competitive with dealers flagging and getting each others ads deleted. I want to sell an item that is desirable to folks in NYC, but I live in Philadelphia. How do I post an item in another city?
