Believe it or not I have also flipped a lot of things too in my early days of hustling, I have bought and sold over 8 ps4's totalling over 385 ponds in profit
(avrg 55 pounds profit per flip) this sounds very low and this isn't a get rich scheme it's extra money you can use for the summer will require effort

Best Items to flip are electronics, mostly consoles are better
Ps4's, ps5's, xboxes, nintendo's, gaming pc's, phones(any electronics) at least from my own experience

Idk how people do it on eBay but I kept it simple and always did it through Facebook Marketplace

on Facebook marketplace there is a feature where you can look for the most recent items that have just been sold
1. Look for the recent sold ps4's in 30 days,
2. try to calculate and workout an average price,
3. PER PS4, CONTROLLER AND PER GAME
4. Now yk how much they sell for, let's say a console and a ps4 sell for 140$ on avrg

To find cheap one's you'll have to be quick with dming new listings
What I do is click on the last listings in the last 48 hours that are
in my range (15km-+)

Now you can see the new listings that have been posted.
Look through each listing and workout if you're going to make a profit with this flip, you know your avrg per ps4 and controller (e.g: 140$) and lets say the new listing sells it for 80$, now you can make an easy flip with 60$ Profit


Dm these people and try to negotiate a price, This is What I do: Offer 60% of the price listing, When they say it's too low, ask what the lowest price they can do?,
once he goes lower, you go higher, Workout a price, Ask if there's any problems with the ps4 and if everything works perfectly, this is very important, you don't want to be buying a broken ps4 and losing money, ask their address, and if you can pick it up TODAY, because these cheap ps4's get sold very very quickly, you need to pick them up ASAP, arrange a good time for both of you and go pick it up, Be confident when approaching the seller, DONT GIVE THEM THE MONEY FIRST , First see if everything is there and ask him again if he's sure that everything works., Lowball at the meeting, take a look if everything's in tact and if there's ANY SCRATCH or ANY DOWNSIDES, you try to lowball them and try to offer 5 bucks less for these downsides, transaction should be done by then, go home and see if everything works, you can also test the console at the seller's house

First of all clean up your ps4, add all the games/ controllers/consoles together in 1 picture that you're going to sell (this will be your main photo) also make sure it's sunlight and the background is opposite to the colour of the console, if it's a Black console try to get a lighter/white background, Also take your pics BETWEEN bird's eye perspective and human eye perspective, add more pics of different angles

You'll need to add SEO to your Listing, both in the title and the description With SEO, I mean adding keywords that people search, in your description and title and the description (check for other listing for inspirations)

Bonus tip if you want even more money,

when you take pics of the electronics copy the pics of the sold listings that sold for the most.

+ lots of people pay way more for a jailbroken console

Ps4's aren't flippable I can find dozens of Ps4's for 50 bucks on my local marketplace. You may want to try pc flipping that's more profitable.

1-2k a month is still a fuckton imo. and especially if youre under 18 and dont own any assets / have to pay taxes
