Discontinued items sell for big money on eBay.

Remember this product? Textured scrubbing pads that attach to a pointed scrubbing unit with a long handle for cleaning tubs and showers. Apparently this item was not popular enough to keep producing because it has been discontinued.

eBay sellers can make big money on this item, if they can find it. The regular retail price of the Mr. Clean Magic Reach tub and shower scrubbing pads was $4.25 per 8 pad package. eBay listings for this product are selling for around $24 per 8 pad package.

Look for this product at Big Lots, Home Depot, Lowes, small independent hardware stores, flea markets, garage sales, and anywhere cleaning supplies are sold. Don't forget to look in your garage or basement in  case you have some stashed away!

Discontinued consumer goods can bring big profits on eBay, as demonstrated by this one product.. Consumers know what they like, and as the supply of an item gets smaller, the price gets higher - this is just simple economics. Timing is everything when selling discontinued items on eBay.
