What do you think? How much money can I earn?

i don't know. doesnt sound too lucrative to me.
if you go ahead, i suggest you pick something very specific not just "toys"

If you join any affiliate program, just make sure that they ship international.

Sad fact is that there are many that don't but still accept affiliates catered to customers outside the US and the have a little link at the bottom that says "if you're a International customer, please visit .."

Wonder how is tracking done for such scenario.

My first ecommerce site was selling toys. I built it, because I had an offline business selling toys.

Offline I did very well. Online was not so good. Famous brand name toys? Maybe ok. But there is lots of tough competition.

Unique toys? Customers want see and touch them before they buy. I still sell a few, but I am focused on my other sites now. They make more money. I just let the toy site run on autopilot.

I personally stay away from toys. Kids don't have credit cards but love to click on ads. Lots of traffic, very few sales. I learned my lesson through Pokemon.

Kids don't have credit cards but love to click on ads.

Which is why you would make sure to have adsense. ;)
