Could I Make a Partial Living Flipping Items on E-bay?
You most certainly can. I have been doing this for 2+ years , it takes experience/knowlede and alot of hard work.
I would recommend starting here:
www.whatdoisell.com
download the audios and worksheet, spend 1/2 a day and learn the basic material.
My only other suggestion is don't have your business solely on Ebay. start your own dot com and market your products to existing customers. Ebay is an excellent customer acquisition tool. Don't think of every sale as a way to make profit. think of it as gaining a customer. Use a customer list and send out newsletters. I prefer and use ymlp.com . let me know if you need specific help and I can assist you in some of the problem areas with Ebay and ways around them.
best of luck...and get ready to pay some SERIOUS FEES
