I used to do something similar with BT home phones, I bought catalogue returns, fixed what needed to be fixed and flogged the rest. Managed to turnover £1500 on a £500 pallet in 3 months. I'm not doing it now because the return was too low, and I CBA. If you have nothing better to do then it's quite easy.
I kind of get what you want to do, but items normally in the US then sell them on the UK eBay? Could work, but selecting the right product/s will be crucial, and eBay and Paypal fees may make it pointless, but you never know. Good luck!
Selling stuff on eBay could be possible, i.e Uk person buys, pays to your UK Paypal address, and then you withdraw that to your UK bank account, but still the logistics, planning and legal issues would be immense.
