Products most likely to be high-margin are exclusive or difficult to obtain but easy to ship, in limited supply but also in great demand. Sellers of such products need to have specialized knowledge to manufacture, assemble, obtain or market those products, or must be able to provide those products faster or cheaper than all their competitors, or to provide higher quality or added value.
Sellers of high-margin items typically do not go around explaining to others how to compete against them. Those sellers would prefer to keep their high margin themselves, rather than to encourage you and others to drive the margin lower through competition. More competition means lower market share and lower margins.
Products least likely to be high-margin are those that are easiest to obtain in high quantities from wholesale companies that are only too eager to sell to thousands of competing individuals each hoping to get rich quick by reselling the same items on eBay as all their competitors without utilizing any economies of scale or providing any added value.
