I know that it is no longer the kind of thing for a small single-person operation to make a lot of money off overnight like it may have been a few years ago, but could a person that actually dedicates himself to it make some good pocket change ($300) during the month by buying things on sale and then selling them for more on Amazon in 2019?

Easy. I did fba from 2015 to 2017 and you can make thousands a month.

Start now and by the time 4th qtr comes you can have a couple thousand dollar days.

I mostly sold computers tablets and cameras from Walmart... HUGE MARGINS.

You can buy a camera (t6, d3400) for $50-100 and sell for $4-600

Couldn't find them that consistently to try to play that game.

Stopped once my kids started school cuz i couldn't do the overnight trips or mindless 2 week long road trips.

My store made $75k the last full year i did it. That's before taxes and costs etc... But overall was a good profit

You would drive to different towns and buy them at a discounted price then flip them?

Yea we had plenty of stuff locally because there's a lot of stores. But once i found a crazy deal on big electronics we would make a trip.

We were getting Nintendo switches and ps4s for cheap. $60 Nexus 7 tablets that sold for $3-400. $200 surface pro that sold for damn near $1000.

Any time we find something big like that at a local store we would spread out to the rest of the state. And then neighboring states

There's tons of info. on this online and I will definitely look more into it, but just as a quick question, is it basically I would buy things and then mail it to a fulfillment center? Who lists the items, do I or does Amazon?

i heard people talking about how PS4 or any of the Fortnight games sell alot

apologies if i got the name messed up, not into video games like that but ive seen more than one source online say that you can buy them real cheap and flip for over 200 or 300 on amazon or ebay
