Through a want to quit my office job, I didn't go to school for business, I went for IT
But it all came down to me not wanting to get up and go on the fukking highway to work and deal with that office bullshyt for 8 hrs
So I was skimming through podcasts and came across this goofy white boy called reazy resells and he was talking about flipping nikes on amazon before they stopped allowing just anybody to do it
He also was speaking on this shyt called tactical arbitrage and oaxray, which are programs that essentially take the legwork out of going to walmart and target and all these places and searching through the clearance racks for products with a strong resell potential on amazon and ebay
Only problem is, these fukking programs are about $100 a month, I mean they work and they give you a week trial free:
Oaxray.com
Tacticalarbitrage.com
It's just they both have a STEEP learning curve on how to source properly for maximum profit
Anyway, I eventually found some other liquidation sites that package shyt up in bulk and sell it at a flat rate that you can resell for a little money
(Ill give yall one, liquidation.com, among MANY other sitea which I will not disclose here)
And I decided to start my own llc and sell on amazon and ebay, and ive been doing this since January and have YET to have a losing month profit wise, slow days, but ain't taken a L in profit and get closer and closer to quitting corporate america
Also check this site, they do give good info and my goal is to one day be able to just ship packages for a living like them, although I don't do the amazon fba shyt:

Oh and read this also:
eBay Sellers Journey to $100,000 a Month
If I were to give any advice to somebody wanting to start this shyt it'd be this:
1. Get self adhesive print shipping labels for your packages, took me like 4 months to figure this out, all that cutting print paper and taping shyt to boxes was an unnessecary time waster
2. Don't just go for the iphones and shyt, because that market is saturated like a motherfukker and you'll have to price pretty low to get any consistent sales
3. Watchers on ebay don't mean buyers, don't get too excited when you get a watcher on something you sell on ebay
4. Lastly, atleast get a basic ebay store if you're selling on ebay ($20/month with a yearly subscription and you get a free $25 voucher for packaging supplies from ebay every 3 months, which helps tremendously since you can get 100 packing envelopes for $28, which after everything would only cost you 3 bucks
