Pick the Best Selling Dvd Titles Instead of New Release Dvds

So you think the money is in a new release dvd. Most new sellers fall into this trap. With a new release dvd I have to spend nearly $20 in order to make $2 or $3. I would much rather sale a good selling title that cost me $5 or $6 and make the same amount of profit.

I like the movies that are around two or three years old. These are the dvd's that I look into. I understand that the titles that you choose to sell are totally up to you, but in my opinion I prefer the older ones. It is imperative that you spend a little time researching the titles that you want to buy so that you can ensure that you are not stuck with a lot of unwanted dvd's.

I direct all my customers to research the auctions listed by ebay's largest dvd sellers. If you will take a look at their past auctions, you will not see many, if any, new release dvds there.

WHAT DVD TITLES SHOULD I SELL?

The best thing that you can do when picking dvd titles to sell is to research the titles. You can do an advanced search on Ebay to research top selling titles. Just refine your search to the top seller's (as mentioned above) and find out what titles sell.

You should not limit your research to just these three sellers. Do an extensive search on Ebay to see what dvd's are selling.

Once I find a title that is a good seller, I add it to my "Buy List". You'll find the titles that you research will grow in size like a giant snowball. It seems a little slow at first, but after a few weeks, you'll have a few hundred titles that you know are good sellers.

For instance, if you spend 5 - 10 hours this week researching titles and come up with 100 good ones. You add those 100 to your "Buy List". Then next week when you spend the same 5 - 10 hours researching titles and come up with 100 new titles, your buy list will have grown to 200. After a few weeks, you'll have several hundred movies on your list.

Besides a "Buy List" it is also a good idea to have a "Do Not Buy List." You may find a good seller, but after a while it will fall off of the good seller list. It should be a routine that you go through your list from time to time and cut out the dvd's that no longer sell so that you make sure that you do not purchase them again.

ANOTHER IMPORTANT POINT

You cannot make money on every title. Your goal is to find the titles you can make money on. Don't waste your time researching titles you like or you "think" will be good sellers. Instead, research your cost on the titles you see the big sellers have sold. When you find a title that is selling over and over determine if you can buy it low enough to make $2 - $3. If so, you have a good title for your buy list.
