The Amazon Resellers BOLO

Guide

by Frank Lacy

1|Page
Introduction

My name is Frank Lacy. I'm a family man living in northern


Texas. I have been selling online since 2006. I started because I
wanted to build my own business, something I could continue to
do after I retire from my day job. I started with Craigslist in 2006
selling items that I purchased from storage units.

In December 2006 I purchased a storage unit that had comic


books. Thousands of comic books. Selling them one at a time
on Craigslist did NOT sound like fun! I needed a different way to
sell them. In January 2007, I discovered Amazon. I still have the
first comic book I pulled out of that box – a #1 Chromium cover
Battle Chasers. Great artwork and story. Anyway, as I started
listing the comic books on Amazon, the sales started coming in.
So, I started looking for more comic books to sell. At one point I
had over 40,0000 comic books available for sale!

I have sold thousands and thousands of items on Amazon,


buying them from garage sales, estate sales, Craigslist, online
auctions and other places. I'm not telling you this so you can be
impressed with me, I just want to give you confidence that the
information in this guide is the result of years of research, plus
plenty of trial and error.
What have I sold, you ask? All kinds of stuff: Star Wars toys, Star
Trek toys, action figures of various types, Barbies, Hallmark
Christmas ornaments, Precious Moments, Memories of
Yesterday, Comic Books, Books, Records, Toys, Board Games,
and much more.

What this book is about. This book is about finding great


items to sell on Amazon at garage sales, estate sales and other
2|Page
places. What to look for. What to avoid. What prices I like to
pay when buying. How I negotiate when buying. I wrote this
book so I could teach you some things to BOLO (Be On the
LookOut) for when you are out sourcing.

What this book is not about. This book is not about how to
sell on Amazon. It is not about how Amazon works. Or about
how FBA (Fulfillment By Amazon) works. There are many
different programs out there that teach you how to sell on
Amazon and how it works. I highly recommend the Proven
Amazon Course (or PAC) by Jim Cockrum. You can click on the
link to check it out.

Do you need a lot of money to get started? No. I started with


just a little money (a couple hundred dollars, if I remember
right) and was able to grow it. This is not a get rich quick plan.
It is a business that you start and build into what you want it to
be.

I will also make comments throughout this book about selling


on sites other than Amazon. That can be a nice addition to your
business.

Some General Thoughts

Amazon changes things all the time: Amazon is known for


changing rules and policies from time to time. One of the
things they like to change is brand restrictions. Many of
the items that I talk about in the guide can have their
current brand restrictions at any time. Please keep this in
mind when shopping and be sure that you are able to sell
an item before you buy it. There are two easy ways to tell
if you can sell an item. The first requires you to be at your
computer where you actually try to list an item using the
Amazon web enter forms. If you are not permitted it will
tell you. The second is to use the free Amazon app. When
you scan an item it tells you if you are restricted and what
condition restrictions you may have.
How to buy. There are two ways to buy these types of items.
Some people like to check each item and only buy items that
meet specific criteria. I do this when I am at a garage sale with a
smaller selection of what I am looking at. For example, if there
are only five books I might look each one up and buy the one or
two that meet my criteria. Some people like to make an offer
for everything and do the sorting when they get home. This is
my preferred way to buy. For example; I see a collection of
books or Barbies and I will make an offer on the whole
collection. That way I can buy more and potentially pay less as I
am buying the whole collection vs one or two items. You would
be surprised how many times people have taken my initial offer
with no counter offer (or maybe only one counter) and then we
agree on a price. Most people are ready for their collection to
be gone and don’t want to sell them one item at time. As I

4|Page
discuss how to buy certain things in this book, I will share the
average prices I like to pay when buying collections.

Beware emotions (theirs). When buying collections, many


times the seller has an emotional attachment to the collection.
It might be the Barbie collection their mom or grandma left to
them. It might be the Hot Wheels collection that they built with
their dad or son. Be gentle with these people. They will attach
more value to a collection due to the emotions. When they ask
what you are going to do with the collection, my normal answer
is that I am a collector (or my wife is, if it is Barbies) and when
we buy collections we pull out the ones we want to keep, but
we do sell the duplicates we end up with. Most of the time this
puts them at ease and are willing to move forward with you. If
they feel that you are just in this for the money, they may be
turned off and not deal with you.

Beware emotions (yours!). When buying collections, you


need to be sure that you do not become emotionally attached
to a collection. If you become emotionally attached to a
collection you may end up paying too much for it. You will think
you need it for one reason or another and pay too much for it
resulting in less profit or even a loss. I have done this multiple
times – it can be a hard lesson to learn once, even harder to
learn it over and over.
Don’t be afraid to walk away. There are times you will put a lot
of effort into buying a collection. It might be a long drive to get
there. You may have rented a trailer or truck to haul the
collection away. And then when you get there to look at it, you
know in your gut it is a bad deal. Could be the condition of the
items isn't as good as you were expecting. Or maybe there are
fewer items than you expected. That's fine - walk away. If you
buy it anyway, then you now own a collection that you can’t
make enough money on to cover your expenses. Then it is up to
you to figure out how to dispose of it. I have more than once
5|Page
bought a collection that I knew was wrong in my gut, but
doggone it, I rented a trailer and drove for three hours! I can't
go home empty-handed! Actually, I can. And...I should have. It
is better to walk away than to make a bad buy and then have to
deal with the losses.

Diversify your inventory. What do I mean by this and why do


I say it? Many sellers will tell you they sell one thing: toys or
books or beauty products. There's nothing wrong with
specializing – especially if it's something you have a personal
interest in – but diversifying your inventory is a good strategy to
ensure consistent sales throughout the year. That is, if you have
toys, books AND beauty products in your inventory, then when
toys aren't selling, beauty products may be. Or when beauty
products aren't selling, people may be buying books.

Helpful Business Tools

This business takes a lot of time and there are a lot of things that
we have to be on top of. Because of this, there are lots of tools
out there to help you. I suggest you use those that work for
you. Here are some that I use.

Cross-Listing to eBay. One great way to increase sales is to


cross list your Amazon inventory to eBay. This is especially good
if you do this with your FBA inventory. When something sells on
eBay, all you have to do is create a Fulfillment Order on Amazon
and they will ship it for you. There are businesses out there that
will automate this whole process. They will create the listing on
eBay, and handle the Fulfillment Order with Amazon when it
sells. They will tell Amazon about the order and where to ship
it. When it ships, they will tell eBay and provide the tracking
number. One of these companies (the one I use) is called Ki
MCF.

Repricing inventory. Keeping up with sales prices and making


sure you are not priced too high or too low can be hard –
especially as your inventory increases. I use RepriceIt for this. It
is pretty simple to use. Click here to check them out.

Inventory Control. When participating in the FBA program,


inventory control becomes harder and harder as you increase
your inventory levels. Keeping up with returns, lost inventory,
damaged inventory, and making sure Amazon reimburses you
promptly and correctly can be very time-consuming. I know I
have lost track of inventory at FBA. There is a great eBook that
addresses this problem called Amazon Refund Guide. It teaches
you how to track your inventory so you can open cases with
Amazon when they have not reimbursed you properly. A great

7|Page
tool to assist you in keeping track of your inventory. Click here
to check it out.

Now let's look at some specific items to BOLO (Be On the


LookOut) for.

8|Page
Barbies

I love Barbies. People collect them and keep them new in the
box and keep the box in mint condition.

Barbies are good sellers on Amazon (and eBay) and at good


prices.

Where to find Barbies: Garage sales and estate sales are a


good place to find Barbies. If you look on Craigslist people are
selling Barbies all the time. I also pick up a lot at various online
auctions.

Kinds of Barbies: I generally see three types of Barbies. Those


in small pink boxes, those in big pink boxes and those not in the
pink boxes. For the most part the small pink boxes don’t sell for
as much money as the others. The big pink boxes sell for good
money most of the time. The non-pink Barbies sell really well
for really good money. I have made money selling all three
types. When I am looking at a collection trying to decide on my
offer, I take the kinds of Barbies they have into account.

How to buy Barbies: I normally like to pay no more than $10


each for Barbies. I have found when buying large collections my
average sales price is around $30, so paying $10 each is a good
buy price. If I know what I am buying I will go higher (if the
potential sales price is also higher) but I rarely go much higher
than $10 each.

Use a cross-listing program to cross-list Barbies to eBay. I sell


lots of Barbies this way.

Specific Barbies to watch for: Bob Mackie, Wizard of Oz, Gone


with the Wind, I Love Lucy, superheroes, and Harley. Any series

9|Page
of Barbies should do well, but these sell very well for premium
prices.

When I buy Barbie collections, they are usually collections of 20


or 30, sometimes up to 100 or so. That's usually what most
people have accumulated over the years. However, I have made
two large purchases of Barbies. One was for 950 Barbies in May
of 2014 for $10,000. Another was for 850 Barbies in April 2016
for $9,000. The 950 Barbie collection has brought in revenue of
$22,900 so far with over 100 left to sell. The 850 Barbies has
brought in $8,295 so far with over 575 left to sell.
Here are some pictures of the collection of 850 Barbies before
we packed them

Star Wars & Star Trek

I love Star Wars. (Who doesn’t?) Star Wars collectibles are a


great market to be in! But it can also be a challenge to buy
collections. Like with Barbies, people collect them and keep
them new in the box and keep the box in mint condition.

Most Star Wars items are good sellers on Amazon and sell for
good prices. It really depends on the item - action figures are
different than playsets, which are different than the ships.
I love Star Trek. I am a bigger fan of Star Trek than Star Wars.
But when it comes to selling online I am a bigger fan of Star
Wars than Star Trek. I have found that Star Wars always sells
better.

That does not mean that you can’t make money with Star Trek,
you just have to be more selective.

Where to find Star Wars & Star Trek items: Garage sales
and estate sales are a good place to find Star Wars and Star Trek.
If you look on Craigslist, people are selling collections all the
time. I also pick up some at various online auctions but you
have to be careful as it is easy to get into a bidding war and end
up paying too much.
I have purchased multiple big collections off of Craigslist and
garage sales. At garage sales, I will make an offer on everything
they have and we usually can agree on an acceptable price.

Kinds of Items: I group these items into five groups:


 Small action figures

 Large action figures

14 | P a g e
 Playsets

 Ships/models

 Plates/other.

Small action figures in mint condition sell really well. The only
problem is most sell for very low prices. When selling them
FBA, I usually charge around $7-$10 each. For Star Wars, the
green card (Power of the Force) sells really well. The red cards
do okay. The blue cards do pretty well. The problem is there
are lots of sellers with some listings having hundreds of sellers.
When selling Star Trek through FBA, I usually only send them in
if I can charge over $15. This is true for all versions of the small
figures. The problem is there are lots of sellers with some
getting into the hundreds of sellers and the demand is much less
than Star Wars.
Large action figures in mint condition sell pretty well. The main
problem with these is, like the smaller figures, they don’t sell for
a lot of money. I have seen prices from $10 - $15 or more. They
don’t sell as fast as the small figures. This is true for both Star
Wars and Star Trek.
Playsets include Micro Machines sets and other boxed sets of
figures and toys. This is where you can start seeing better
prices. I have seen some of them go into the hundreds of
dollars with most being in the $25 and up range. Micro
Machines do really well.

Ships and models are great for both Star Wars and Star Trek.
They sell for great prices and not a large number of sellers. New
is best but I have sold a lot new in box but with damaged boxes
– just be sure to include pictures of the damage as it really
helps.

Plates and other stuff it all depends on what it is and the


current market. For both Star Wars and Star Trek some plates
15 | P a g e
do okay but most sell for around $10. For the other
miscellaneous stuff, you will need to just learn the market and
determine what works for you. The “other” category for Star
Wars/Star Trek is huge and can include all sorts of things.

Selling vintage (70s and 80s) vs newer: For me this boils down
to speed of sale. As most of the vintage stuff sells for higher
prices, it sells slower. If you are okay with a slower sale, then
the older vintage stuff is okay. I prefer faster sales so I focus
more on the newer stuff. This is true for both Star Wars and Star
Trek.
There is one more thing to consider with selling Star Wars. With
the new movies (starting in 2015), finding collections to buy at
reasonable prices to be able to make a profit has become very
hard.

Use a cross-listing program to cross-list Star Wars Ships and


large items to eBay. I sell lots of Star Wars this way.

Early on when I just started going to Garage sales I went to one


with a large Star Trek collection. I think it was somewhere
around 1200 pieces. When I arrived and looked it over I was
very impressed with it. We ended up coming to a price of
$1,000 for all of it. A great buy.
I have purchased many small collections from sales also. Arrive,
make an offer on it all and pack it up.

16 | P a g e
I once bought 13 Star Trek Models all new in original shrink
wrap for $50. Sold them all for $266.23. I will take 5 times my
money any day. Here is one of the models, the buyer paid
$34.99 + $11.97 shipping.

17 | P a g e
I have done the same with Star Wars. Lots of small buys - 20 or
30 items at a time - but also a few large collections. Once I
bought a collection of 700 Star Wars collectibles for $1300.
Brought in a total revenue of $11,897.12.

My favorite Star Wars buy of all time is one I don't believe I will
ever sell. I'm sure you will see why. This was listed on Craigslist
for $200. The poster is dated 1977. She had no CoA (Certificate
of Authenticity) so I offered her $100 and she agreed. She
claimed that she went and got all of the signatures herself. It
somehow ended up on my wall and I think it looks pretty good
there, don't you?

Precious Moments, Memories of
Yesterday, Gobel

Precious Moments, Memories of Yesterday, Gobel and other


statues like these are okay sellers. Some can go into the
hundreds of dollars. New in the box is best but some sell well
even if the box is missing or damaged. They are generally not
fast sellers. For me these types of things are what I buy when
other inventory is hard to find.

Where to find Precious Moments and other statues:


Garage sales and estate sales are a good place to find them. If
you look on Craigslist, you can find collections sometimes. If
you find a Hallmark or specialty store going out of business,
check them out as you will probably find them there for good
prices.

How to buy Precious Moments and other statues: When


buying large collections of these types of statues I shoot for
around $5 each. These can sell from $10 on up to well over
$100. So keeping it around $5 or so gives me the room I need to
make up for low prices items with the higher priced items.

20 | P a g e
Here's one I bought at an estate sale for $5. Sold it for $39.99

21 | P a g e
Media

Media (Books, Comic Books, CD, & Records) are a great


inventory source. There are always people selling books, comic
books and records. In bulk they are very inexpensive and can
sell for good money. I have sold media items for $10, $25, $50,
$100 and more. I usually buy them for $0.50 or less each. So
return on investment is great. Media is not normally very fast
selling.

Where to find media items: Garage sales, estate sales and


library sales are great places to find media items. If you look on
Craigslist people are selling these items all of the time and for
low cost. I also pick up some at various online auctions but you
have to be careful as these can get heavy and shipping will be a
big chunk of your cost.

How to buy media items: I have purchased 2000 books for


$300. I have purchased 4000 books for $300. I have bought
40,000 comic books for $3,000. I have bought 250 records for
$50. And in all cases I found more than enough profit in the
collections. Of course, the staff at Half Price Books knows me
when I come in to sell those that I choose not to list on Amazon.
I take what they pay me and buy more books or puzzles or other
things I have found while waiting.

People can make a full time income just selling media on


Amazon. If you are really interested in selling books and other
media, I recommend the Sourcers Apprentice book. This is an
excellent book that teaches how to source and sell books on
Amazon. The author, Jeff Clark, also has a Facebook group
where the members are very supportive of each other – helping
everyone grow to success. Click on those links to check them
out.

Paid 50 cents, sold for $14.47. I

$99.99
Here are a couple of examples of books I have bought at estate
sales.

23 | P a g e
Monopoly, Puzzles & other Board
Games

Monopoly and other board games are great sellers also.


Especially old vintage ones and ESPECIALLY if they are still in
their original shrink wrap!

Themed Monopoly games do really well. Monopoly games are


very popular. If you can find them in their original shrink wrap
that is even better. Recent Monopoly games have been using
electronic banks instead of paper money. That will make the old
versions with real money even more collectible.

Buy prices for Monopoly games vary. The selling price for these
can range from $40 - $100 or more. I shoot for no more than
$10 each, but if I can get them lower all the better.

Other vintage board games do well also. They need to be


complete to sell on Amazon (no missing pieces). The better
condition the box is in, the better seller it will be. I always
include multiple pictures of my specific item in the listing so that
people see what I have versus the stock photo that Amazon
uses.
I like to pay around $5-$10 each for board games. The selling
price on these can go as high as $100 or more depending on the
title/condition.

Puzzles are great also. New in an unopened box is the best so


that people know everything is there. I always pick these up
when I find them at garage or estate sales. Open puzzles can be
sold also, but I usually sell them with my local auction house
instead of Amazon or eBay. I don’t want to have to deal with
issues of all the pieces being there.

24 | P a g e
I like to pay around $5 for puzzles and sell them around $25.
Some sell higher, but $25 seems to be the most common price
for unopened older puzzles.
Legos is another brand name toy that does well. Finding retired
new in the box Legos is a great cash flow. Almost any Lego box
set will sell. The themed sets are best but I have picked up plain
red brick boxes that I have sold for a nice profit. I treat open
Legos the same as open puzzles. I take them to my local auction
house.

I bought this puzzle at an estate sale for $5. Sold it for $49.97.
Ten times my investment.

Christmas

Christmas items are a great untapped gold mine. Everyone


knows how great the Christmas holiday is for retail. And if you
have the right inventory available, you can make large sums of
money. But what sellers frequently ignore are the actual
Christmas items – ornaments, decorations, and other Christmas
items. Those can be great sellers!

What are Christmas items?


If you're talking sales and someone says “Christmas items,” what
comes to mind? Toys? Christmas Trees? Ornaments?
Decorations? Different kinds of gifts?

Christmas can mean many things to many people based on what


they buy as gifts and how they decorate.

The answer for me is anything that is specifically Christmas-


themed. Not toys and gifts, but Christmas itself. Decorations,
Trees, Ornaments, Platters with Santa on them, and so on.
Specific items related to the Christmas holiday.
Specific brands to keep an eye out for include Hallmark and
Radko.

The market for Christmas items covers both new in box, new old
stock as well as used. Let's discuss the difference.
New in box: These are items you buy from a wholesale
company or store having a sale. As the Christmas stuff goes up
each year they are all put on sale almost immediately. And after
Christmas they are deeply discounted to move the inventory as
the stores don’t want to hold the inventory for another whole

26 | P a g e
year. Not only that, but some items may be dated and will not
be sold the following year.

New old stock: These are items you buy new from collections,
old inventory from stores, or stores going out of business. They
are new in box also but they are not coming directly from the
manufacturer or a wholesale company. These are also new in
the box/never displayed – just as new as if you purchased them
from the store – they are just older inventory.

Used: The used market for Christmas is also pretty big. This
would be anything that has been opened and used by someone
at some point. It may or may not include the original box and
packaging.

What do I consider not Christmas items? The gifts that you give
that have nothing to do with Christmas. The computers, tablets,
games, toys, household items, pet items, and other stuff that
you give as gifts during Christmas. This is the Christmas market
everyone knows about and goes after. I also sell this type of
stuff, but the competition is steep and price is usually the
driving factor.

Something I find interesting about Christmas ornaments is many


times these sell as gifts. I see gift messages on these orders all
the time – and they sell all year long.

27 | P a g e
Where to sell your Christmas
inventory and why

Once you have your Christmas inventory you want to sell it. But
where? And Why?

I have sold Christmas items on Amazon, eBay, Craigslist and


other online auction sites. I like Amazon FBA best. Let me start
with the other sites and end with Amazon.
eBay: Christmas does okay on eBay as long as there are not a
large number of sellers. For ornaments, eBay seems to be a
bargain hunters site. I see people selling ornaments for $1 or $2
each and I have even seen $4 with free shipping. Not sure how
they are making any money.

I only list Christmas items on eBay if there are a few or no other


sellers. With fewer sellers, you can get a better price. I am a
believer in using the Best Offer feature on eBay. Most of my
sales are items listed at full price and when someone sends me
a Best Offer it is usually a decent offer. If however, someone
offers me $5 for a $40 item, I respond with a $39 counter offer.
Usually ends there.
Craigslist (and other online classified sites): I don’t normally list
single items on these types of sites. When I list, it's usually a lot
of stuff that I can’t or don’t want to list individually. So I
combine them into a lot and sell them that way. Buyers on
these sites also seem to be looking for bargain basement prices.
I have sold to other resellers who are better able to sell what I
am not. I don’t do much of this anymore since I found the local
auction house. See the next paragraph.

28 | P a g e
Other auction sites: I do have a local auction house that has a
website for their auctions that I use. I use them for those items
that I used to sell on Craigslist. I take a car load of stuff
(Christmas and non-Christmas) and drop it off. He lists them on
his site for me (he decides how - in group lots, individually,
whatever he feels is the best way to sell them) and then he
sends me a check. I recommend that everyone find a local
auction house you can do this with. I know how hard it is to
trash inventory or to donate it when you would rather have the
cash. This is a great way to move inventory with very little effort
on your part.
Amazon: Amazon rocks for Christmas – all year long. FBA works
best during the Christmas season because of the large number
of items I sell. With the right items at the right levels, I have
sold over 2,000 ornaments over the November/December time
frame. There is no way I could ship that many out by myself!
That is why I use FBA for 99% of my Christmas stuff.

Frequently when I discuss FBA, someone will bring up long term


storage fees. This is a valid concern – Amazon will charge you
hefty fees for quantities of inventory that have sat in the
warehouse for too long. That is why, for Christmas items, if it
does not sell over the season I tend to keep very low levels
during the rest of the year. I do sell ornaments and other stuff
all year long, just not in large quantities. I usually shoot for 1 or
2 of a Christmas item depending on the item. If it is a “fast”
seller I try to keep the level at 2. However, I let the level hit zero
before I send in the next two. That means it has shipped out
and I have zero in the warehouse. I want the long term date
timer to hit zero for an item before I send in more. Long Term
Storage fees are assessed in February and August, so after the
August LTS fee assessment, I am willing to increase my levels
over 2 (again depending on the item) as it won’t get hit for LTS
fees again until after the Christmas season.

29 | P a g e
Then in October, I start to increase the levels to what I want for
the season. This is where the real challenge comes in. How
many of an item should you send in? That is where the real
learning curve is. When I started selling ornaments (before the
LTS fees were around) I would send in everything I had. Now I
look at how many of a specific ornament I have and my past
sales along with what is hot in the movies/pop culture and
decide how many to send in. I then list everything else that is
left for Merchant Fulfillment. Then once a week I look at levels
and send in more where needed.

After Christmas then, I have the upcoming February LTS fees in


mind. How to avoid them? I have no problem dropping prices
drastically to move the inventory out to avoid long term storage
fees. I would have to pay storage either at Amazon or my own
warehouse. Cash is better. For the nicer, higher priced items, I
recall them for next year. I am sure I have annoyed a few sellers
by dropping my prices like that, but I prefer the cash even if it is
only a couple of dollars profit each.

I have made many small purchases of Christmas ornament


collections - like, 50 to 100. I have also made some large
purchases of Christmas ornaments. One was 4,000 ornaments
for $1500. This was from an estate sale. Their mother was an
avid collector and they just wanted them all gone. Took us two
trips to move them all. My revenue from this purchase was
$35,000.

Another nice purchase was 1000 ornaments for $1000 with a


revenue of $15,000. Even smaller buys can have good returns. I
bought a collection of 200 ornaments for $75 with a revenue of
$3,530.90.

30 | P a g e
Here are a couple of really nice sales.

This sold for $179.99 to someone in


Belgium

This sold for $174.99 to someone in Texas.

31 | P a g e
Of course, prices like this are the exception. Sales in the $14-$25
range are much more common.

32 | P a g e
Where do you find Garage Sales and
Estate Sales?
There are many ways to easily locate garage and estate sales in
your area.
Craigslist has a section titles “Garage Sales” where people list
both garage and estate sales. That is a great place to start.
There is even a free smart phone app call Yard Sale Treasure
Map that links to Craigslist and lets you get directions from
where you are to the garage sale. I like this a lot.

Facebook sale groups work well also. We have gone to many


sales that were posted in these groups.

There are two great web sites that I use a lot:


www.estatesales.net and www.garagesales.com. Both of these
sites let you create a sign in and then you can set your distance
and search terms. Then they will email you sales that fit your
criteria so you can map out your day.
There are many other sites that I have not used, but have heard
good things about: www.yardsales.net,
www.yardsalesearch.com, and others. You can search Garage
Sales or Estate Sales and you will see many to choose from.
And one last valuable tip is networking. Let people know what
you buy and they will let you know when a sale is coming up
with what you are looking for. Make business cards with what
you buy and your contact info and pass them out.

Conclusion

Selling on Amazon can be a lot of fun…. addicting even. If you


are willing to work the business consistently, then you will be
successful.
“You can have anything in this world you want, if you want it
badly enough and you're willing to pay the price.” Mary Kay
Ash

If you are new to selling on Amazon or just new to reselling


these kinds of items on Amazon, I suggest you start with
something you like and once you get that going, you can expand
from there. I started out with comic books, went to action
figures based on the comics, and it grew from there. I am
always looking for new kinds of items to sell. Don’t be afraid to
branch out and try new things – it is the best way to grow.
