I just want to share the good news (even though you may not have an ounce of care)! Yesterday, I just got invited to become an eBay powerseller. Now you have to understand what that means. I had to work hard for this privilage. Eligibility requires a minimum of $1000 per month in sales, Feedback of 100 with 98% positive, Good financial standing, good eBay “citizenship,” etc. Some benefits include: exclusive access to powerseller forums, welcome kit, special offers from wholesalers, exclusive access to the bulk reseller marketplace, exclusive invitations to eBay events, eBay advertising discounts, and more. They even help me with Health Insurance solutions if I am self-employed or hire a bunch of employees. The benefit I like the most is the Powerseller icon. I get to park it next to my username. To me, that is like a badge of honor. It shows and experienced and honest seller. It makes me think of having an M.D., Ph.D, Pharm. D., or some other D right next to my name. Read the eBay Powerseller information page for more details.

   I read your articles about you becoming a power seller on eBay and such and I have wanted to get into eBay myself. I have searched the internet over for different starting out products from whole sellers to begin selling on eBay. I have not bought the products yet. I was wondering if you could give me any tips about eBay and buying from whole sellers. One question I did have though, when people say they are selling a book on wholesellers products such as iPods are the books worth the $30? What would the books contain that would market them at such a price?

   Hello Jake, I’m glad that you’ve read my article in my blog. I too have been searching the internet for wholesale products to sell on eBay. Unfortunately, I have not had any luck so far. My business partner (my brother) will not allow me to disclose out current sources, but I’ll tell you that we are looking for exactly what you are looking for. For tips on buying from wholesellers….. hmm…. well technically we haven’t bought from wholesellers yet. so, i really don’t have anything to say. I hear that http://www.wholesalemarketer.com/
   and http://www.worldwidebrands.com are great but I have not really got in depth with them. Really, the hardest part is finding a popular product and
   a good wholesale price. About those $30 ipod wholesale books, i think some of them have legitimate information. but I get warry when I see those typical marketing pitch websites. I also have not tried those… but I suggest that you watch out. i’m sorry that I could not have been of more help to you.

   ps. if you are buying wholesale, most wholesalers require a Tax ID number and a state reseller licence and other things typical consumers do not have.
