thousands of individuals who open a trading account with eBay and dream about making auction selling a full-time home-based business.
However, before that dream can become a reality, you need to do many important things while running an auction business.
One of these important things to do is to pick
right products to sell. The right products to sell are
ones that people on eBay want or will buy.
eBay tells you what people actually want and what people actually will buy in four areas of its website.
"In Demand"
One of these four areas on eBay's site is
"In Demand" section. There is an "In Demand" link for each of
main categories on eBay. Listed in these areas are
previous month's top ten products that people wanted and
top ten searches for each subcategory. To see
data in these areas follow
link below and when you reach
page, scroll down and click on
link "In Demand" under any of
categories shown.

The next area containing information on finding what to sell on eBay is
"Hot Categories Report." This report lists
"fastest growing" categories on eBay for

important thing to know is that
categories listed are
ones were buyer demand for
items under those categories are growing faster than
