Top 3 Websites for September

Each month Scotty will share his top three websites for that month. The websites will mainly reflect suitable products for re-sale online and useful information of benefit to Sellers and Buyers.

Whilst product sourcing is a rather taboo subject with online sellers, Scotty hopes to break the silence by slowly revealing all he has found that has assisted him in the last few years of selling online.

TOP THREE WEBSITES FOR SEPTEMBER:

1. http://www.ebayliveauctions.com/

Fantastic website for live online auctions by registered (and some non registered) dealers. Auctions can start from $1.00 No Reserve. Some absolutely beautiful items available but BEWARE, very competitive and extremely fast paced. Can take a while to get used to the procedures, terms and conditions of the auction. Things to look out for here are the shipping costs of each dealer. Some require you to arrange your own shipping and others will not ship outside USA. Winning bidders are always required to pay a buyers premium (a percentage of the sale) to the dealer. Scotty has used Ebay Live Auctions on numerous occasions without any hassles.

2. http://www.bidz.com

This website always comes up in Scotty's online searches. Never made a purchase but it seems a popular website. Jewellery seems cheap for descriptions used. Some items could be resold successfully depending on your marketing procedures and the quality of the item. Jewellery is the main focus of this website however ensure you click on the "Other Categories" section to take a look at what else is on offer.

3. http://stores.ebay.com/DIAMONDGALERY

A USA Ebay seller and Live Auctioneer. Purchased 1 item from here before. Excellent customer service and cheap shipping to Australia. Item quality was a bit of a problem. It is recommended you ask about any flaws before bidding. HOT TIP NO.1: Take a look at the Feedback of Diamond Galery and you will notice that many BUYERS have purchased more than one item. Ask yourself whether those buyers could be re-selling the items on Ebay. HOT TIP NO.2: Click on the BUYER details to reveal feedback information and peruse the items the BUYER has sold on Ebay. You may very well find some items from Diamond Galery appear here!

I hope you find these links helpful. Please let me know how you go.
