But I'm going to do what the creator of the crosses said and sell them for $10. He's wants you to be able to profit off of them. Like I said, I've already got people that will buy for that price and I'm sure jj76634 sells them for around the same price. Btw, that's ebay, I don't trust ebay. Amazon is the site I trust.

Seriously? Almost every thread on every topic on every scam site has some random poster that shows up and claims it is working for them.
Here is the thing, if it works for you then great, come back in 6 months and give us an update on how it is going. But also if you are handy/crafty why not just go to a craft store and buy your own supplies and make things on your own and sell them? If something is selling on EBAY for $4 that is probably the price, regardless of what the company says it should sell for. According to the screen shot the EBAY seller sold 76, shipping costs what $1? According to your numbers material is $1 per cross. So you are left with $2 profit before time invested. One advantage I see is you can make these when you are watching TV or during idle time, but you could cut out the middle man and make original items that may command a little more premium.

I did some poking on one of the links LORM posted last page, according to the company it should take 5 minutes to make a cross, or 12 per hour. A few claimed to be able to do this, others not so much. The ones claiming the most proficiency said they had been doing it a while. So depending on how fast someone could make them, purchasing for $3 may actually make more sense.

The below screen shots are from Amazon.
This is the bulk seller with nice little wrapped crosses.

Those are the prices people are getting for them. If you can get more great, but what does catch my eye is the buyer feedback. While not 1 to 1 if you look at other Amazon or Ebay stores there are people with 1000s of comments. That tells me they are moving a lot of stuff. I believe on Amazon the better listing rates start around 30 sales per month (but that is gossip from someone who I spoke with that sells some stuff) so give or take on that.
At any rate would be interested in hearing how you are progressing and what you come up with.
