Hi.This is my first post in here and i`m hoping you can help me.I was made redundant just before xmas and had little to no success in finding a job.Then in the new year i started selling mainly videogames and dvd`s on ebay.Mostly from my own collection and some i`d bought from ebay in the first place or via differant online stores.
To my amazement ive made a profit on everything ive sold new or second hand.Now i`m hoping to start a small ebay business selling videogames as that has been my passion for over 25 years.But not sure where to look to find bulk buys at good prices.Ive tried searching the net but it usually turns up some rather dodgy looking sites requesting credit card details etc.
So the question is where do i start? Any help,advice would be brilliant.

well look no further, we are a company that deals with all the major distributors of xbox, playstation, and nintendo products. Our site is currently under construction at the moment and is a retail site that offers membership to dropshipping products for a monthly fee with substantial discounts.. the only services that i am offering at the moment until website launch is what is posted in the thread... for a sneak peak check out.

I guess it depends on what you mean buying bulk and how many you want to initially purchase.

Iam relatively new to all this so my experience is relatively limited. However I feel that in terms of video gaming, its a very difficult to sector to break into due to, well to be honest everybody else doing it! Also a lot of powersellers etc on ebay which is difficult to compete against. I have actually moved to something else now which better success.

Again in the short time I have been here, just trawl around the forums and there is plenty for you to get started with and a lot of reliable traders. Beats googling " Video game wholesalers "

Anyway I have used Gamejelly and ISY dropship, both of which are competitive and trustworthy.

Hope this help and more importantly, good luck!

Thanks again.I realise its a tough sector to get into but i hopefully will be able to at least give it a shot!

Of course and good luck to you. Just remember to try and branch away from ebay if you can. I honestly found it difficult to compete on there. I personally resent the fees on there which are so high.

If its your passion, go for it and with enough time, dedication and motivation im sure you will succeed.

25 years of gaming? Me to.... I remember the old Ataris where i used to bat a square ball from left to right!

Why not stick with used video games? Trust me - a lot of potential in that market

Higher profit margins + less risk.

Used videogames are a huge market but where do you find a constent supply.Ive found a few on car boot sales and market stalls but thats not exactly practical is it.
