When it comes to stocking an online store the great thing is that you don't really have to have the products
. For some online stores just posting items for sale that you have not bought yet is the best bet. The reason why this is your best bet if you are new to online retail is that you want to know what sells and what doesn't. For me I try to list a few items from Amazon.com if I am new to that item. The reason I do this is because I know that if they don't sell for the price that Amazon has them at then they might not be the best product to have. And once I have learned what products sell well in my market I then go out and find what I want.
There are two places I find products all the time, and they are at yard sales and ebay. The reason I use yard sales is because people will often times just want to get rid of their stuff and if I can get an entire box of stuff for free or very cheap then it will make a killing for profit. Another great thing about getting products from yard sales is that you won't spend as much up front which means you can sell the products for less than anywhere else and get a quick profit from the product. The only bad thing about buying from yard sales is that you have to keep very good records for your taxes because you will need to account for all the profit.
And the reason I love Ebay is because you can find many wholesales lots of stuff that you can find for pennies per product instead of paying full price per product. If you just search around on Ebay you will notice that almost every category has a sub category for wholesale lots, and wholesale lots are they key to make a lot of money very quickly.
