TI-84

Bought: $4.51 Sold: $59.99 Fees: $3.32 Profit: $52.16

I've been on the lookout for these calculators - any Texas Instrument graphing calculator - since I started flipping over a year ago, and finally came across my first one about a month ago. These are sure fire sellers. Texas Instruments has a monopoly on graphic calculators, and they have barely changed at all in the last 20+ years, and a lot of university classes require them. The monopoly allows TI to keep the market price for new ones over $100, so the used market is quite active. You can usually get between $50-70 for one of these, so they are well worth keeping an eye out for it. This is the time of the year when they sell best - leading up to and into September. A great flip with great profit, and always something to be on the lookout for.
