5 Discontinued Items to Sell on eBay and Amazon

It is time for a discontinued product update! I've been selling some goodies this summer and wanted to share them with you. Maybe you can find these in your area.



1 of the items I found in grocery stores was marked down to $2! I sold this item on Amazon for $19.99. It was a consumable item. Buyers often purchased more than one at a time. I sold 44 bottles at a profit of $12 each between July 2 and July 26. Profit on this item was $528 in about 3 weeks just selling 1 product. This was one of those "embarrassing" products that sell well online because people may be embarrassed buying it in person, but have anonymity when buying online. On the other hand, I got some strange looks from cashiers when buying 10 of these at once.....



Here is a screen shot of my Amazon sales report for this item:







To get the list of items, visit Online Selling Coach and look for the update dated August 25.



Also, I am creating a video series for Online Selling Coach on how to create and market your own eBook. Everyone has an eBook inside them. With channels like eBay, Amazon, the Kindle, Clickbank, e-Junkie, and other sites, you can create and market your own information product and create a stream of income for years. I sell information products that were created 4 years ago so I know this strategy works. You may not think you have information that another person would pay for, but trust me, everyone does. Some possible topics for eBooks include:



Living with a chronic illness

Caring for a family member with a chronic illness

How to make money doing something

How to make a specific item at home

Researching a complicated system (such as VA benefits, disability, government benefits for yourself or a loved one)

Surviving a natural disaster - how to cope afterwards

Traveling to a foreign country

Living in a foreign country

Repairing a item

Getting something free

Surviving a personal tragedy (car accident, death of a loved one, a crime, etc.)

How to get money for college

How to fund raise for a charity



The list is endless. I will show you how to determine demand for a topic, how to write the book or hire someone to do it for you, and how to promote the book using free channels on the internet.



Have a great weekend, and if you are in Irene's path, stay safe!

Claire Burke Candles - Tuesday Morning Item to Sell on eBay

Claire Burke is a company that makes potpourri, candles, room sprays, and other home fragrance type items. Claire Burke items are usually sold at small gift shops, home interior design stores, and small pharmacies, and the merchandise is getting harder and harder to find. There isn't very much of it on eBay.

I was in Tuesday Morning today and saw quite a few Claire Burke candles. Most of them were marked at $4-$5. These items are selling on eBay for double or triple the Tuesday Morning price. Here is a listing for a Claire Burke candle that sold for $12:


Not a huge profit, but maybe something to make a few bucks on if you can find several at your local Tuesday Morning store. For more items like this that you can sell on eBay, check out my latest Hot List with 25 items.
