Are supply costs killing your bottom line? Have you considered checking prices on eBay for the everyday items such as key tags, mirror hang tags, streamers, POSCA pens, stock tags or balloons?

A couple of things to consider -

It's easy to see what these items recently sold for previously. Just click on the completed items icon on the left side of eBay's search screen. This will give you a clear idea of the items value and what to bid on current auctions. Also, take note if these items were sold in bulk.

Always be specific in your search for items - if you would like name brand items, type that in your search - example Versa tags key tags. Make sure items are listed as NEW, NIB new in box, or NWOT new without tags. You want to make sure to compare apples to apples.

Always check the feedback rating on the seller. Click on the number after the seller's name, it will show you both positive and negative feedback. You can usually tell by the seller name if they specialize in auto dealer supplies - example Car Dealer Superstore (865).

Ask any questions before bidding on the item. You can also ask the seller if other selections are available - example Orange key tags instead of Yellow key tags.

Ask about combined shipping rates and ask about discounts for purchasing in bulk on staple items.

Ask what else the seller offers or if they have a website.

Most communication can easily take place via email and isn't that time consuming. You would be surprised how much money your dealership could save.
