This is my first post on the actual purpose of this site - Finding stuff to sell on eBay. So, I will start off with the easiest and quickest place you can find stuff to sell (and what I started with)… Stuff sitting around your own house.

Not only is this the quickest and easiest way to start selling on eBay, but it is a VERY important step in starting your eBay business! It sounds easy to start selling on eBay and it is, however it does take a little time to get used to all the steps involved in selling. This is the perfect opportunity to get your eBay business off the ground with no investment in inventory and without having the pressure of trying to get your investment back from an inventory purchase.

There are thousands of different items you could sell, but here are a few ideas to get your brains going:

• Gift Closet - I am sure you have a closet full of gifts that you received and never opened. I am sure there are hundreds of people out there looking for that exact item.
• Books/CDs/DVDs/Video Games - How often do you actually use these products? These are great sellers on eBay and a great way to get started.
• Jewelry & Watches - Broken or not, these items sell really well.
• Clothes - I know you have tons of clothes in your closet that you haven’t worn for a very long time… Well, now is the time to get rid of those old rags (especially the ones that still have the tags).
• Old Sporting Goods - No time to play golf? Too out of shape to hit the tennis courts? Now is the time to get rid of those sporting goods that you no longer use.

So, if you are new to EBay, get to searching for stuff around your house… You will find more to sell than you think and you will gain valuable experience and get some money in your PayPal account to start buying some inventory.
