Is there any way to find which products are best sellers

Today's best seller is dead tomorrow.  That's really not a good idea.  Sell what you love and what you can explain.

But, if I had it to do again, I'd sell coins.

It may be difficult to get too many people to tell you what best selling items are. 

They are probably selling that item and don't want/need the competition.

Of course, if you were in China, you might be able to get a copy of the list of the 'hot items'.

Items that sell really fast and easy?

Or

Items that sell and you can actually make a profit?

These two things rarely coincide for the average small time eBay seller.

It's probably just as likely that you will find a way to pick tomorrows winning lottery numbers.  However, some do seem to have good instincts and when they spot something that they think has potential, go with it.  Some people call it LUCK.

No one will tell you their sources, because they worked hard to find them, although in some categories it’s probably easy to figure out.

I’d suggest making a list of all the different things you like or are curious about yourself, and then spend time looking at completed listings to see if 1.) You have access to similar items and 2.) You can figure specifically why that listing was successful/sold.

Even if you knew exactly which items were best sellers, it would do you no good.   There are already way too many other sellers with those items and the competition would bury you.   

Ideally, you find things that no one else on ebay has for sale.   At least that is what has worked for me.

Hi! Yes there is a site called WatchCount.com that chronicles hot sellers on eBay and other data you might find useful. Here’s a link:

What do you mean by "best sellers"? 

Items that people are purchasing most? 

Items that generate highest dollar volume?

Items that have the best profit margin? 

Items that sell quickly? 

Items that you can easily aquire for resale?

Items that don't generate scams, returns, or non-payers?

Yes, there is! Click on “account” then on “applications” and go to “marketplace analyzer”. It’s an app, you might have to pay for it but may get a free trial, I can’t recall, but I used to use it all the time. It’s a great app to use to see who/what’s selling by total sales, and by total buyers. You’ll love it.

You mean what items is every other seller on eBay, AZ, Posh, the Doll, the Ranch, and Alibabbbble selling?

Go where there is little competition, not where there are many others who can buy and ship cheaper than you.

Sell what you know, know what you sell.

But if you want to know, for me it is mint Canadian postage and books by John Norman.

I haven't looked at the stats, but I'm sure electronics and fashion (new) are high on the list. Tools probably do well also, as well as new home accessories (sheets, towels, dishes, shelves & other furnishings, etc.).

I know the OP will never come back, but if they do - if they find out, let me know.

Hint:   Don't go fishing where all the other fishermen (or women) are.

What  is hot today  may not be  hot tomorrow and if everyone one is selling something - prices & profits drop quickly.

IA classic example. In 1958 Hula Hoops sold 25 million in the first  6 months, then 100 million by the second year.  By the early 60's sales dropped to about 1 million.  In 1958 a Wham-O Hula Hoop  sold for about $2 to day a Wham-O is about  $30.  Knock offs about $5.   Hence, the phrase "The Hula Hoop fad was not forever" or any other fad - like  those polyester leisure suits, bell bottom slacks or Nehru jackets.
