Above are good answers.

If you want something inexpensive try saving your fortune cookie from the Chinese All-U-Can-Eat.

Answer 4

Lots of people will tell you different things. But I suggest you first check what ebay tells you are the hottest things to sell on eBay (afterall, they've got the data and the most information)



Items In Demand = the most popular items currently within that particular category. To see the In Demand page, go to http://pages.ebay.com/sellercentral/sell...  

Hot Items by Category Report = a monthly report that lists the fastest growing categories on eBay for the previous month. Go to http://pages.ebay.com/sellercentral/what... and select "Hot Items by Category" from the menu on the left.

eBay Pulse = "a daily snapshot of current trends, hot picks, and cool stuff on eBay". Go to http://pulse.ebay.com/ to see eBay Pulse in action.

Merchandising Calendar = eBay promotes specific categories on its home page each month. Savvy eBayers know that this home page exposure results in more interest in such categories. Go to http://pages.ebay.com/sellercentral/cale...  to view the current Merchandising Calendar.
