Hey guys,
I'm new here but just wanted to ask you guys this.
I have a seller. He sells an expensive designer product.
He gets them for $800. But he needs resellers on Ebay and when that
product auctions it goes up to about $1500-$2000.
And that's 300% insane. He says he has quite a bit of resellers and that
they are all making bank. He wants resellers because he said his account is
at it's limit since they are so expensive.
He accepts paypal but I feel as if I will get scammed and pay him $800 and he would get away with it.
What would you guys do?
BA,
Thanks a lot !

      Don't do this deal, it's a fairly well known scam. Once the item sells and you forward the his money to his paypal you will never hear from him again. The item will not be sent, The buyer will chargeback and you'll have a nice -$2000 on your paypal account.

          Hi Barry,

          This opportunity sounds great, but it can also be one of those shiny deals designed to play of peoples greed for high profits.

          If it turns out to be true you stand to make a lot of money. But is the product also popular i.e is there market and demand for it on eBay? if there is, and the seller is leggit, then I would go for it.

          But how would you confirm the legality of the seller and if what he says if true?

          I would advise that you try to chat with him. Talk him into having a life Skype talk, explain to you everything and even show you around his facility and product stock. That way, you can confirm if it is true or not.

          If you have the money, you can buy a sample and see how his process works. Other wise, you would avoid investing too much money (e.g some scammers will ask you to first pay for 100 units, you see?).

            Well, here's the thing. I did in fact skype call him and he showed me the product. And the demand? It's INSANE. But the problem is I still think it's too much man to just "test out"

    Even if this is legit (red flags are going up for me), I would never spend $800 on a single product starting out. WAY too risky. Build a business slowly- get some low cost, high demand products to start with, then move up to increasing your cost and profit. When you get comfortable with this, then you may consider high-ticket items (after thoroughly verifying that everything is legitimate.) I've got a strategy that you might be interested in my free e-book. There are many others on this forum as well that have great advice on this stuff as well. Good luck!
