I know a couple big success stories... mostly making stuff for either photography or sports.

One was/is a device for photography. Guy invented it and promoted himself,sold it only through his site. Made a mint.

Another are guys that would take a piece of sports equipment that cost a ton in America and euro and would import the same piece from China and rebrand it.

Make it Americanized and then sell for a discounted rate over the competitors and only do it online. Promote it through the sport specific forums and boards. They were smart cause they knew what would sell and it did. Kinda like the guys who knew what would sell in porn aka brazzers and bang bros.

I know of some other that have targeted specific sports and made t-shirts for them too. works very well!

If your just reselling shit that is available everywhere that aint gonna work. You either have to do something cheaper or rebrand it or something completely unique.

But just being an affiliate selling stuff that everybody is? I think your up against forces that are smarter and better capitalized then most.
