Would it generally be true that if the particular merchant does a good job with sales conversions, that the competition for keywords will already be so heavy, that to get top 4 positioning is unlikely unless willing to spend a lot/click? This is a general question.
Whenever I'm searching for something, and input a query that returns less than 1-2 results, I usually jot the term down to keep a record of these for future consideration.
However, there are still many good KWs out there that no one is bidding on. Remember, everyday there is a new product or service, and thus new KWs.
Every week I add a few KWs with 0 other bidders. Some of these KWs only bring in a few clicks/week, and others might be 100+. However, they are all $0.05/click, and together add up to a decent number.

This is where a separation between a winner and a loser is taken place. Sometimes you can not distinguish the quality of a click which costs $0.05 to $5.00. However, this may not last long if someone is following you. And you move on to the next.
In addition to the keyword research finding niche products/services is key as well. Anything from flower bulbs and candy to ROI tracking services, financial services, and specialized videos can be profitable if ya can find the right programs and take the time to dig up the hidden keywords.
