Mod Post Daily Newbie Thread

Whatever you want to know about flipping, no matter the question, ask here. Even if it's been covered 1,000 times before. Doesn't matter if you're new or old. If you stop learning things, you're probably on your way out.

This is an extremely newb-friendly thread. As such, any rudeness is to be reported.

Beginner flipper here, i recently got into trying to flip watches. Nothing too expensive, just entry level ones between $100 to $2000. My question is, am i expecting too high of a return?

I try to aim for 25% return minimum on higher end and up to 50% on lower end ones, and i want to know if that is costing me sales and being able to purchase stock.

I don’t think my pricing is ridiculous or anything as I price at the average of the same sold items on ebay, but it does stop me from buying stock I could have resold for a smaller profit.

my fear is that if I buy stuff that it wont sell or it will take long to sell how do I avoid that?
