FBA and Importing Goods From China

[throttleforward]

So I've just spent the last few hours trying to source my first product

You could:
-search for products based on sales rank, looking not for the top selling items but items selling in the middle of the pack (less competition, usually better margins, e.g. take a look at sports and outdoor products over $25 that are ranked between 80k and 110k)
-put your own brand on an existing generic product (go to Chinese manufacturer, get your own brand stamped on it, sell at a premium - see the credit card knife on Amazon)
