Totally new here, I figured the worst that could happen is that I lose $67...lol

What do I do now ?

Oh, one other thing, I already saw a site on Salehoo selling cotton t-shirts for $46.

Sure hope there's better deals than that.

Hi and welcome to SaleHoo, tuyu!

Well, what type of products do you want to sell? Once you've thought of a couple of ideas, it's time to start researching suppliers. This is where SaleHoo comes in. Use the directory to look for suppliers for the products you want to sell. When you've found some suppliers who fit the bill, contact them directly for more information and also to ask what the best possible price is that they can give you for the products you wish to buy. Often, the best prices are never listed on the wholesalers' website as most suppliers will tailor their prices to your order.

If you haven't already done so, download a copy of the SaleHoo User Manual and the rest of the PDF guides, you'll find them quite useful.

All the best!

Well thank you, I appreciate it.

I'm interested in coins, done a little looking, don't know if the profit margins are something manageable.

I dont' want to veer too far from my interests....not really into electronics and of course womens clothes (even though I'm sure many people make money that way).

I like sporting goods, is that a tough one as far as profit margins ?

Selling something you are interested in can be a good start. It's likely that there are plenty of other people who also share your interest in coins and sporting goods - giving you an instant audience for your product.

Collectibles and one-off items, rare coins for instance may have amazing profit margins, even on eBay. Sporting goods may also have good profit margins, however, keep in mind that the online retail market is very competitive and business owners usually need to buy a significant proportion of their inventory in bulk to ensure that they get maximum profit margins on each item they sell.

You may have noticed the Research Labs tab above. The Research & Analysis tool helps you discover the profit potential on eBay for products you wish to sell. Check it out, if you haven't yet.

Yeah, I believe I read somewhere on the site today that they charge you for the research lab after you've done 10 searches ?

Did I read that right ?
