Join us as we dissect the strengths and weaknesses of eBay, the largest secondary marketplace. Despite boasting 135 million buyers, eBay's slow pace in adopting innovations and the competitive landscape pose challenges for sellers. We'll explore eBay's international program, data insights through Terapeak, and seller protections that continue to make it a strong platform. However, the reselling landscape is vast, and alternatives like Whatnot, Poshmark, Mercari, and Amazon offer niche opportunities for resellers to thrive. From the quick setup of Whatnot to the specific market focuses of Poshmark and Mercari, we delve into how these platforms cater to different seller needs. Hear from our 'Hustle of the Week' contributors who've found success beyond eBay, with incredible finds like an Arnys Corduroy Jacket, a Foohy Fooz Lava Lamp Pencil Sharpener, and a Wolf built-in steamer. As the reselling market continues to evolve, we discuss the significance of local marketplaces like Facebook and OfferUp and how they fit into a reseller's strategy. Whether you're an eBay loyalist or looking to expand your selling channels, this episode is packed with insights, tips, and inspiring success stories to help you navigate the diverse world of online reselling."   Join the Discord and Partner with us via Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/purehustlepodcast Sign Up with MY RESLLER GENIE with 15% off your first month for the best bookkeeping geared for resellers by using the link below and USE OUR CODE “PUREHUSTLE” all in caps: https://www.myresellergenie.com/?ref=purehustle Get a free $15 on Whatnot by using the link below: https://whatnot.com/invite/purehustlepodcast Get that Skullshaver using the link below and our code "Hustle": https://skullshaver.com/discount/Hustle?rfsn=6980222.2cfe107&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=6980222.2cfe107 Purchase bubble wrap from the best deal available ANYWHERE: https://www.americanbubbleboy.com?sca_ref=650095.KTEipe5MI4&sca_source=YouTube
