Why don't PLR sellers let you sell their stuff on eBay?

No, this is still the rule, however I burn the ebooks onto CD and sell them as a physical product.

This is what eBay officially says about digital products
Digitally delivered goods policy

You can list most digitally delivered goods on eBay as long as you follow these guidelines:
You need to list your item only in the Everything Else > Information Products category using only the Classified Ad format.
Your listing clearly states that you legally own the content (sometimes called intellectual property) or are authorized to sell it by the owner, the owner’s authorized agent, or the law.
Your items can't have any sexually-oriented adult (pornographic) content. For more details, see our Adult Only category policy.
Your item can't include software that would damage anyone's computer, could be used for malicious purposes like sending spam emails or spreading a computer virus, or would violate anyone's privacy (spyware or cookies, for example). For more details, see our HTML and JavaScript policy.
You have to be verified on PayPal to help confirm your identity.
In addition to meeting the guidelines of this policy, listings for all informational products also need to meet the requirements of our compilation and informational items policy.

This is what I am wanting to do, I have no interest in selling things that are going to cost me more in listing fees than profit. I have a few good quality items that I have permission to sell on ebay, between $10 and $20, and I think having a tangible product such as a CD, increases the value in the mind of the buyer.

Hi Neil

yes, I charge actual cost postage and packaging for shipping on top of the sales price. eBay and paypal fees total around 10% of my sales price, so I make sure I charge enough to make a decent profit after fees are deducted
Don't make enough to retire yet, but I am looking for great products with a high perceived value, to help me get there quicker

Hi Kay

would love to write my own products, but don't have the time (or possibly the talent ) I have seen so many fantastic looking guides out there and would love to get my hands on them to sell, even willing to sell as is with the author's affiliate links in some cases, just to be able to offer great products to my customers.

Hi Neil,

fingers crossed you can offer me something My niche is mostly home based business, especially around pets and crafts.

cheers

no probs. Hope the weather clears up for you, it is pretty grey up here today.

eBay banned the sales of digital products quite a while ago. I would say the vendors are not openly advertising that they have digital products, and would be difficult to find.

Hi Sheryl

I don't sell the products with resell rights, I sell them as stand alone products on CD. I don't want 1000s of other people selling the same items as me, but for ridiculously low cos.
I love the idea of having a limit as that makes the products more exclusive, I am always looking for unique items that I can sell for good $$$. I wish I could get some products where I have the exclusive rights to sell on ebay.
I can pm you my ebay store if you want to see what my listings look like,

cheers
Angela

Hello Angela,

I really like your concept and way of thinking.

I'm investigating whether or not I should begin sell on Ebay.

Any chance I could look at your Ebay store for inspiration.
