Are you meaning how to make a profit in general or with those specific sets?
If you mean specifically, how much did you pay for them? And if you don't
want to say actual numbers, if your profit isn't as high as it could be...
maybe consider parting out the sets

Good morning Madame, thank you so much for answering me, this is the first community
I've joined and I'm not at all familiar with how many things work. However
I would like to make a fair profit, without speculating, from the old sets I
own which were purchased over a period of time ranging from 1986 to 1997 (when
the lira was still in Italy) referring to the evaluations that I have been able
to ascertain on bricklist; but first, however, I will have to be enabled to
become a seller. So, if I understood correctly, it will be enough for me to buy
something from someone and if this person leaves me positive feedback, will I
be able to upgrade to a seller?

Correct, and it doesn't need to be a certain amount. It does take a few weeks
to get approved, so keep that in mind. And with profit, like I said, don't
completely take "parting out" as a viable option. It also just depends
on how quickly you want to make the money. Also, once you become a seller, having
a small "new store" sale is a great way to showcase your new store as
well as make some potential sales. Or offering incentives, such as coupons,
maybe a giveaway. The potential is endless, you just have to figure out what
works for you. I am always coming up with something different, not only to make
money but my squirrel-like attention span needs constant change
Example: I struck a deal with a vendor so currently, I get roughly 40LBS of unsorted
bulk for free, so everything is a profit!
