  400 sales in 3 month 

  DIY items like cable clips, cable ties, telephone wire connectors (the sort used by BT or Sky engineers)
  and I purchased these in bulk.

  Cable ties in batches of 500 and sold in 50-100 pcs.

  500 telephone wire connectors cost $60 ( Most need 10-20 pcs) 
  I sold these in small batches and undercut every single supplier on ebay.
  


  All items I sold went for cost price and were shiped with 1st class post. 

  Even added extra items to the orders so as to keep buyers extra happy as.

  I change my listing format to 3 day auctions, ensuring that every day my
  items would be comming to an end due to auction time running out and thus my listings
  would appear for a brief moment a the top of the page right at the end of the auction.

  All listings were started at 0.99p with no reserve and free 1st class postage.
