If you're currently an eBay seller, you may have asked this question: where can I find the most popular products to sell? Before answering this question, however, you have to actually find the best selling products.
How do sellers find them? Some sellers accidentally happen upon great items to auction, but most have to do some searching to find the most profitable products.
