How can I invest $500 and make a quick profit? *Not stocks/bonds*?

I have about $500 that I want to use to buy something and sell for a higher price. I don't want to buy lots of small items but rather 1-5 items and sell them on Ebay or some other site....quickly. Any suggestions not related to what I want to do are greatly accepted. Thanks guys.

Honestly if someone knew how to turn a quick profit on $500 they are already in business for themselves and wouldn't go around telling other people how to do it. Some people do go around and buy things from places like garage sales to resell on ebay for a profit, a lot of the things that will turn the biggest profit are rare antique items though you have to know what you are looking for before you can find it.
