    I've thought of doing this but would it work and to whom would I sell them?

    You need to research the niche first. Then for instance create your own site and offer SEO services(because they have been selling quite good so far). Sell them for at least x2 the fiverr gig. Once you get a buyer, buy the gig from fiverr, deliver to your buyer. Rinse and repeat -> ??? -> profit :)

    The hard part is getting traffic to your site if you don't already have one. Some investment will be needed for SEO, advertisement, etc. And if you are going to invest money in it better don't do it for reselling fiverr gigs since it's unstable in my opinion. Going for affiliate might be more appropriate.

    Most of the gigs use very old and bot techniques, i used twice, though they do what they promise but the buyer can hardly get his results from that gigs, because they are too old and used for so many times. there are a very few which really brings great results, you have to spend time to find quality gigs, remember don't go for the buyers feedback.

    Yeah, buyers feedback is sometimes misleading. I think first you need to buy some gigs and experiment with those gigs. Then you can decide the quality of those gigs. But I never done this, so I don't know how it works.

    There is a big future with reselling gigs but its a tough job to weed out the bad ones in fiverr. What you can do is to hire them for yourself and see if they are really serious in their business.

    You can sell them them to people who needs the gig. People who are not aware of fiverr or scared to try them.

    As Rain said, you'll need to distinguish between the good ones and bad ones. But it seems like potential idea.

    People do this all the time. The best way to do it is 1) test the services yourself, 2) bundle the good ones together, and 3) resell it in package form at a huge markup. You're adding value by having weeded out the worthless providers.

    I always thought a neat one to do would make a homework machine. Have someone pay to input their homework into your site, and then find those gigs on Fiverr where they'll do your homework. If you marketed that to high school students........ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

    The risk with this is, such as with dropshipping, if you sell a service, and your supplier cannot meet the demand you will have a few unhappy customers!

    Yes, it can work. Just try the gig first so you know what you're actually selling.

    So you mean if you don't know a skill, you'll just resell skills of another person in the open market. i.e. If someone can write an article for $5, you can sell it for $10 at other places??

    Reselling other people's services for profit is also considered as skill, a very profitable one :)

    I know a few people re-selling fiver gigs. A good one to re-sell is website SEO reports, advising people what needs to be changed, etc..

    and also, offering a logo design service... you can charge $30+ for a good logo.... and only have to pay $5 for it from fiverr... plus most people offer free revisions if you are not happy with the initial design.

    Thinking about getting into this myself. Are the people you know doing reasonably well?

    I like the idea of using SEO reports, didn't think of that one.

    Hopefully once you get enough traffic to your site, plus your sending a decent amount of orders to a certain fiverr sellers page, you could offer the seller a private agreement. He would benefit from not paying the fiverr selling fees, and you would have a long lasting relationship from a reliable source of SEO services.

    This is a good idea but first at all you need to find a good service provider

    success will come but building traffic first is your key... If your target traffic does not find you, reselling will be an issue

    This is very hard to do. You need to generate A LOT of traffic to your site first. And even then, those people clicking on your site must be aware of Fiverr already OR have seen similar services like yours (those who are reselling too).
