What should you sell on eBay - The most watched item on eBay, a clue? Kekoa64

January 10, 2008 by Scott Pooler 

Update: The seller described in this article (Kekoa64)

Is no longer a registered member of eBay. Sources indicate the reason for his listings popularity related to a hack of the eBay Pulse most watched items list... We will leave the original article below, but please do not follow this young mans example and try to game the system. (Read more about this deception here: Trading Assistant Journal )

******************************************************************************

If you were to try and source a product to sell on eBay, what would you look for?

  • Something you know?
  • Something you can buy cheap?
  • Items at a garage sale?
  • Merchandise imported by container full from china with questionable branding and associated return nightmares?

Seriously, these are a few of the numerous opinions offered by a bevy of self appointed eBay "experts"...

So... Whats the plan? How do you find something to sell on eBay? How do you find a hot niche, a repeatable product with little risk of warranty problems and a high rate of return?

You can do some research... on eBay, on Terapeak, even via Google... All good ideas and great places to look...

Or....

You can do what this young man in Hawaii (Kekoa64) seems to have done, without listening to any of the eBay gurus...

Most Watched Listing on eBay

That's right, that long sales letter, seemingly poorly written and photographed listing is the most watched item on eBay. And it is not a fluke. This listing, or one just like it has been at the top of the list for more days than I can count....

Whats the secret?

What is Kekoa64 selling?

Kekoa64 is selling hope and mixing it with humility and topping the whole package off with a bit of information.

$10.00 is not a lot to spend for a chance to make money, right? And if Kekoa64 will share his "secret" with you for $10.00 and back up his claims with a long sales letter in the form of an eBay listing... You might just buy!

With 6600+ feedbacks, I would say this young man may have a point.

The point is... people will always buy information, we always have. We will buy it faster if it is delivered digitally and more of us will find that information if it is advertised on eBay. Is Kekoa64 a recognized author? Does Kekoa64 claim to be an eBay guru?

No... Yet people believe in this person without ever knowing his real name.
