Think Big!

When it comes to building your inventory, it's wise to think big. Purchase items for resale that will yield the biggest returns. Why try and sell TEN items for a $5 profit on each, when you can sell ONE item and make $50!

Keep Accurate Records

Don't be misled on the facts about Internet taxes. True, there is no Internet sales tax but there are taxes on income derived from your auctions. You will need to keep accurate records and report all income you receive from your online auctions. Talk to an accountant if you have any questions or concerns.
