is it smart to buy stuff in bulk and sell on ebay?

I have been browsing a few websites that have liquidation's and they are selling camera's, tv's stuff like that. some of the stuff they say does not work. But can be fixed. I am really good at fixing anything as long as I can get it apart. I have been selling on ebay for about 5 years. im only 19. I was wondering if this sounds like a good investment? Or anyone have any other idea's. I am looking to sell electronics, or other stuff like that

Buying in bulk is the way to go and if you can fix things even better - why not try investing a couple of hundred quid and see how you go??

You may have to do some projections first to make sure you will not be losing money in the process. For example if you buy a bulk liquidation of items for $1000, what are your honest projections of at least making $1000 back in sales. Also, if you are intending on doing it through a dropship type setup, please research that dropship company thoroughly. Many of them out there turn out to be scam artists.

electronics can be quite risky as the product might not have any guarantee and you dun really know if the stuff works.. unless you are really getting from a reputable and sound company so a lot of research needs to be done.. more ebay tips and tricks in powerselling >>
