EBay is popular to almost everybody. It caters to different types of individuals-hobbyists, traders, computer programmer, accountant, design engineers, ”buy and sell” investors, and others. In eBay, you will find millions of items of varying kinds that are listed, bought, and sold everyday. Anything-from Barbie or Bratz dolls, computer software, antique furniture, vehicles of old or new models, and others-can be sold as long as it is not illegal or illegally acquired (in case the item is purchased from another individual) and does not violate eBay’s Prohibited and Restricted Items policy.

Through eBay, almost every goal is possible to achieve. Majority of the items sold on eBay are from private merchants who end up selling such items to other private users. When you try to search this auction site, you will also notice that most of the auctions or deals are for single items. Although majority of items sold are from private sellers to private buyers, the existence of growing ”business to business” market on eBay is present. One of which is the wholesale business, where wholesalers are using eBay to sell merchandises in bulk or in large quantities to resellers. Wholesalers also understand that though there are individuals searching for different items for their own consumption, there are also individuals who are also looking for different items for resale purposes.

Thus, if you are an eBay seller, specialty shop owner, flea market vendor, or even a wholesaler, you will be able to find good wholesale deals on items that you need using eBay. The online auction site provides a sub-category for wholesale, thus you will easily find listed merchandises for sale on eBay. For instance, if you are a eBay wholesaler of toys, all you need to do is to visit the toys category and click the sub-category ”wholesale”. From there, you will be able to see the wholesale deals for a specific kind of item or merchandise.

Probably you are wondering why there are individuals who does not simply purchase at wholesale yet they will resell on individual lots. Part of the reason is that many eBay sellers do not have the capability of storing large quantities of items or money to purchase large lots. However, if you have the capability of storing large quantities of items and some additional money to spend, you should think about purchasing wholesale lots on eBay and then selling it on individual lots later on.
