Reselling/Flipping is one of the best investments you can make

Why??

There is almost NO risk

📩 A Thread 📩
In reselling there are 3 main points of interest

1. Sourcing
2. Selling
3. Shipping

I separated reselling into these 3 different sectors because the parties you deal with change within each one
1. Sourcing

The risk of buying inventory is that it might not profitable or it won’t sell

In order to defeat this risk, NEVER throw away a receipt

This way you can always return if you made the wrong investment

& it’s necessary for tax write offs but that’s another post
2. Selling

Whichever platform you choose to resell on

There are rules & regulations that protect your capital as a seller

You MUST learn them

For example:
eBay customer opens a case*

Understanding how to swing that case to end in your favor is necessary!

Learn the rules!
3. Shipping

Once you have shipped the order, all cases(issues) are now your responsibility.

Platforms will quickly side with the buyer whenever an issue during delivery arises

This is where Insurance Claims come in

If the postal service you ship with somehow...
3. Continued...

- Doesn’t deliver
- Damages the product in transit
- Delivers late

You are entitled to an insurance claim

Filing an Insurance Claim means the postal service will investigate the issue

If in your favor, they will send you a check for sold amount + shipping
3. Continued...

Each postal service has their own rules on insurance claims

Make sure you understand your limits to increase your chances of getting approved for the correct amount
I learned my way around this through trial and error

As long as you do the research before making a costly mistake, you should be fine 😁
