eBay arbitrage is certainly a very good method to earn some cash. For people who may wonder about what arbitrage really is :
In economics and finance, arbitrage is the practice of taking advantage of a price difference between two or more markets: striking a combination of matching deals that capitalize upon the imbalance, the profit being the difference between the market prices. When used by academics, an arbitrage is a transaction that involves no negative cash flow at any probabilistic or temporal state and a positive cash flow in at least one state; in simple terms, a risk-free profit.

As we have discussed, I am actually still doing this. And got paid some hundreds of dollars! You really gotta be careful though with the shipping prices !

There is no learning! haha! If you make your shop, would you expect someone else to tell you how to sell your products? It's the same thing!

Until now, I've never heard of arbitrage and thus I've never tried it. I think that the information that you've shared is great, but I'm not sure that it really explains how to use this method to make a few dollars.
Now, all of this said, I think that someone that knows what they are doing would be a great way for someone to make a nice chunk of change in a relatively short period of time.

So basically you mean importing goods via ebay and selling them for a profit in your own country? or of course vice versa. I live in the Uk and i know manufacturers purposely charge more for the same product avaliable abroad cheaper just because it is the Uk's market rate. I suspect the main bug bear here is delivery costs, you would also have to be careful as this kind of transaction could incur importing taxes.
With E bay however i imagine its quite its to compare costs from various countries
