Hot Item to Sell on eBay – Aveeno Eczema Care Cream

Aveeno Active Naturals Eczema Care Cream. My kids and I use this lotion and it is great for eczema or dry patches. A couple of months ago, I began having a hard time finding it and emailed Aveeno to find out why. The item has been discontinued and will be rereleased at an unknown future date.

Then the light bulb came on. If I live in a city with over a million people and plenty of shopping, and I am having a hard time finding this item, I wonder how other people are finding it. Hmmm, I wonder what it is selling for on eBay. After searcing current and completed listings, I found that people were selling this on eBay for over $40 a tube! It costs $9.99 retail.

So, back in May and early June, I scoured Atlanta for all I could find. I came up with about 35 tubes after visiting over 40 stores. My best sale was 2 tubes for $81 – a $61 profit on one listing!

You can find this cream at CVS, Walgreens, Vons, Walmart, and Target. Look on the First Aid aisle by the Sarna lotion and BandAids. (At Walgreens, it will be way up on the top shelf, so look up!) But be prepared not to find it and move on to the next location searching. This item is very hard to find. Since the word is out, profit is not as high on eBay, but sellers are still profiting $10-$15 a tube. The key is finding it and getting your listing up now, before prices drop further.

Not a bad profit for something you may be able to find at your local drugstore. Sellers are also reporting a nice profit on the corresponding Aveeno Eczema Body Wash, although the body wash has not been discontinued.

So, run, don’t walk, to your nearest drugstore and see if you can find this item!
