I've just received an unexpected refund of £2k, while this is very handy what would be quickest way be to turn this into £3k?

Thanks

agreed.

The best way to double your money is to fold it over.

Not sure how you increase by half though

Seems that buying the right stuff in bulk and selling on ebay is your easiest bet - doesn't require much knowledge beyond what you probably already know about stuff you like.

Otherwise, I'd go the Betfair route but that takes a bit more study and initial investment in time.

If you can decipher what this fker is doing, you don't even have to risk £2k. £100 to £1317 in 5 days. fker! http://www.geekstoy.com/forum/showthread.php?t=738...

To this day, I still haven't discovered the precise ins and outs ('scuse the pun) of his trading technique.

I can confirm the above, a friend is always doing this. In august he bought 5000 pairs of the 'north face' style iphone gloves from china at 80p a pair, sold them through ebay for £10 a pop in Oct and sold out in two weeks.

You do the math!!

Christ! That's a mark-up and a half.

What do you mean by "north face"? Were they knock offs?

I have done a little research into ventures like this but I can never find these 'suppliers' in china and how you go about contacting them.

Where would you purchase a container load or pallet of wholesale goods from China?
