thinking about applying sro's buy low sell high concept in real life. anyone got some online buying and selling experience to share?

Well if your at scool this is what i do to make alot of money
buy chocolate bars and cans of drink when they are on offer stock on them because you may not get the chance to do it again and then sell them for £0.50 and you will make about £20 profit a week ,if you have found some good offers, i have been doing this for a few years and i make £20- £40 a week profits and btw you will find later on when more people find out your selling you will get more customers but beware of teacher because they can get you in shit for selling without a licence =D

keep me updated if you do this i wanna see if it works for you

buddy of mine tried something like that, the vending machine at school sells for 1.25 per pop, he sells for 1 dollar, making 50 cents profit. it wasn't long before someone broke into his locker and stole all the pop. when he reported to the school, he got a written warning for selling coca cola without permission (school signed a contract with pepsi)

There are sometimes bookmarkets where you can get loads of brand new books for a really low price. A EUR 15 book is sold for EUR 1.50. Bring big bag, for every 10 books you buy you get 1 for free.
Then dump on Ebay.

i would go with my idea best dont take all your gear to school soo it wont get Stolen =D

Its harder than you expect.

I did it for a while but unless you have some good contacts you'll struggle to find anything worth the time. Its hard to compete against wholesalers.

But.. if you do find something cheap, make sure to make the most of it (buy a lot of them). The one time i found something really cheap i was low on money so i only bought around 10. And they had 50 for sale. Sold them all on ebay (buy it now) within a weak for £20 more each than what i bought them for. So made around £200.. could've made £1000 if i took a gamble. But £200 was a hella lot of money for me back then anyway, so i was happy.

If you live in Eastern Ontario just head over to QC and buy 24-packs of beer for $25 then sell them for $40. Ofcourse, this works even better if you are in high school because minors need beer for parties.

there's the stock market, buy low sell high, but during these economic times, its random so you would need to learn technical charts and understand certain concepts which can take mad long..
