Could anyone maybe throw some ideas my way as to what i should sell or how i should go about selecting products??
Sell what you know and know what you sell!
Pick items to sell that are not currently being offered by a bunch of other sellers.
Price competitively, you don't have to be the absolute lowest if your presentation is better than others.
Looking at what you are currently offering and I think that this would be like someone who opened a store next to Walmart, randomly offered the exact same products for higher than Walmart prices and expected to be able to compete.
Find an under served niche that you have expertise in that others do not.
Have you ever tried to buy a product and been unable to find it anywhere? You would probably not be the only one looking for such things, there is potential there.
Ever look at products and think that's nice but it could be so much better if ....., again you are probably not alone, create (or find someone who already has) that product.
There are millions of sellers on eBay and millions more on other sites and even more that sell via their own sites or physical stores, if you can't stand out from the others you are likely doomed.
There was a time when an aspiring merchant could copy another successful merchant and do well within their geographical area the other merchant didn't serve. These days geographical area means the entire country or even the entire world.
