Resold a bunch of consoles (mostly ps5's) and a macbook, avg profit per item is 125.

Sourced like all of my items from OfferUp and sold on fb marketplace. (don't source from fb marketplace, so many people use it and you won't be able to negotiate down so you can make more profit)

And does anyone know what the average monthly income is for a 17 y.o high schooler in the USA.
 
1.1k is extremely good for your first month, keep going

That’s good for your age
Don’t spend it tho, be smart and build something passive aswell

If you don't have enough money to start reselling consoles, start off with something cheaper and something that you have knowledge on like clothes/shoes maybe? I would personally love to resell clothes but idk how to tell if something is a rep or not so I don't do that.

Also garage sales will start appearing pretty soon and you could probably source some good stuff for cheap from them.

And if you want to accurately check demand for a specfic item, steal some pics and create a fake listing just to check how many dms you get and how many people would be interested to buy.
