Here's the secret to those good deals on Ebay.... those sellers are losing money. And the competition is fierce. Ask me how I know!

Anyone can buy wholesale from a manufacturer if they have a sales tax certificate. You can get that from your state and local government. Annual fees are involved.

But it is hard to find a sales rep that will even talk to you if you tell them you're selling on ebay. Once you do get an account, your first order usually has to be about $1000 depending on the company you're dealing with, then there's a minimum per order after that.

Yes, it will. You just have to use some of the fabric in your jewelry designs.

Just got an email with 300 timeless treasures batiks. You have to buy the entire 12 yd. bolt though.
