This part is doomed to fail
You list a THOUSAND items that you haven't paid for yet. After THEY sell for a profit and you have been paid the money, you purchase them from the supplier(s) and they ship them to your customers for you.
 
i have a friend who is on welfare and he is landscaping while asleep in his bed(lies to people about having a job including me):Q
 
This bothers me. I had a thread a few weeks back about this same practice.

People selling stuff they don't have is wrong, IMO.

I order "XYZ" from you. After you get my money, YOU order it. When you get it you ship it to me.

That is false advertising and a piss-poor way of doing business, IMO.

Not to mention it is against Ebay rules to list items which are not in your posession yet.

Tons of places do that. Ever hear the term "drop-ship"? Same thing if you ever order something that's out of stock.

Selling ebooks can be pretty lucrative. I get pissed off by ebooks like this, which imply that it's all easier than it is, but I get pissed off at useless expensive watches and stuff, too.
 
I've got a super quick and easy way to make money off the internet too. Give me $5 and I'll tell you my secret!
