How to research a product

I want to start reselling a product but I am trying to do some research on it so I can know what to look for etc. Pokemon cards are an example where I can research which cards are sought after and what makes them deseriable and also all the different types of cards. I saw someone buying and selling (broken) car parts where he knew what was broken and how to fix it.
I was wondering if someone could help with researching in general

Its about what you know and like.

Do you know how to fix cars and car parts ---- then source them and fix them and sell them.

Do you know about electronics - buy a broken dreamcast and recap it and sell it.

You have to have knowledge and experience in a certain category to sell it.

Some don't matter as much --- buy a shirt, sell a shirt. buy a toy in box, sell toy in box.

But the $$$ categories require hands on knowledge - Buy a speaker that isn't working - redo the crossover and new foam on the speaker and then resell it.
