Real Strategy-Help Yourself

So. You want to make some money.
You heard of Ebay and there are an absolute ton of courses on using it but have you heard of the toy peddler?
You see there is a hidden gem on the Interwebs that has an extremely targeted traffic source all geared towards toy collectors. A massive market and industry.

I used to sell on there a lot because I was a Corgi Toys expert and dealt with them almost exclusively. They have the market come to you. When I wrote the product for it I did 2 case studies to prove what I said. Both items sold in less than 5 minutes but I worked hard to have a reputation on there so it had something to do with it.

The point is if you have hot wheels , old toys, barbies etc. You can do quite well using this site. I haven't been on there for a few yrs now because I sold all my inventory but I would use that site over Ebay anyday you can sell anything on there. Plus you get 5bucks to start listing right away for free and look no referral link.lol It doesn't cost anywhere near the listing fees on Ebay and I loved it.

have a great day

Edit: Now I have given you something to make yourself some money. Just because someone asks for help doesn't mean they are ignorant and now I have taught a lesson. I added value to someone's life.
Maybe even yours.
Use it- apply it and make money from it.

    You gave a good strategy, one I heard before. But I remain skeptical because of what I perceived as the, big, pink elephant in the room of such applying such a strategy.

    How does one apply such a strategy cold, without pre-existing knowledge of the niche? Before this post I thought "Corgi toys" were collectors items toys specific to the corgi dog breed (they are a name brand of die cast cars). Never heard of the website "the toy peddler". Would not know about them had you not mentioned it.

    Evaluate the scope and potential profitability of the niche you know nothing about?

    Or...
    You could use it to sell and make some money. Had you actually looked at the website you would see you can list anything on there and people pull thousands of dollars out of that site . Had it been a common knowledge thing I wouldn't have posted it. This was a paid product at one time but I gave a very short tidbit.
    Corgi Toys is what I dealt with. How does one apply it?
    Visit the website.
    Join.
    List items for free to start.
    Sell.
    Ship.
    Profit.
    All these people raving about Ebay. LOL

    For those who have never heard of the Toy Peddler here is the link to the sight - https://www.hobbydb.com/marketplaces...or_sale_search

    Or if anybody wants to learn about Corgi Toys. You can find more information at https://uk.corgi.co.uk/ It looks like they are based out of the UK.

    To the Original poster never knew that much about the company other than they talked about the company on "The "History of Toys" by the History Channel. Here in the US
    Thank you for sharing the information.

    I just went and looked at the site which I haven't been on for a few yrs now just to see if things are still happening.
    I don't see anywhere it says you get 5.00 now but I guess if you join you will find out.

    I did just check and see if money was actually flowing and wow. This is just an example

    35k. I don't know why anyone wouldn't use it even if they do use ebay.

      just because something is listed for 35k does not mean it will sell. And, I doubt the example given will sell.

    Al,

    The guy who listed it has sold a few-I think over 35k on there he is a well known collector. I think he(Bruce Pascal) sold a hot pink beach bomb on there for over 35k all verified by mattel and vetted by the guy who owns the site who works for dept of homeland security.
    so.
    think again.
    -WD
    Hmm, maybe he didn't sell it because I see no publicity stuff for it which there would be I know he sold one, anyway He has over a million dollars in his collection.
    why would he be there Al? If he didn't make money doing it why would he be there?

    I just checked Al, he is the biggest toy collector known, a huge celebrity in these circles.
    Honestly,
    if you can't add value why bother?

    Good information and experience.
    But I've never tried using ebay before, maybe I'll try it soon.
    Anyway, thanks for sharing.

      The information has nothing to do with eBay but is called the Toy Peddler. You are most welcome it's a solid strategy and venue.
