Hi All,

In my spare time i get a lot of enjoyment from taking photos with my Canon Digital SLR 350d. I am always told to look at products to see that i have an interest in. Does anyone have any experience of selling such products. Is it sucessful or was it something to avoid. Being based in the UK anyone with UK experience would be particularly interesting to here from, though all responses welcome. Thanks in advance.

Personally I'd concentrate on the accessories rather than the cameras.

Hi nofussing,

Generally it's best to start selling something you are interested in because you are going to be spending a LOT of time thinking about it! Do you love fashion or movies? Perhaps you feel excited about the thought of new gadgets and technology? It's likely that there are plenty of other people who also share your interest - giving you an instant audience for your product. One idea is to jot down your interests and then make a list of products that are related to these interests (we recommend staying away from electronics to begin with as warranty issues can be too complicated to manage). As tonysmit pointed out, focusing on the accessories rather than the camera may be a good start.

Tonysmit makes a good point, especially if you plan on selling on eBay.
