  • A sourcing MEGA HAUL thanks to Ollie's and TJ Maxx. I was primarily looking for a just a select few items and I eventually did when I made it to the stores. I spent a lot of money today but made up for it and then some! My average ROI was probably around 170% for the entire day. Not too shabby for about 6 hours of work.

    Use some velcro to attach your scanner to the back of your phone to do one hand scanning. Also, use the camera function to scan the front of products instead of peeling off store stickers. You can also find hidden listings this way.

    • @bluegrassprofits21
      @bluegrassprofits21  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Now this is solid advice! Curious if I can get some sort of Velcro that doesn’t stay on the back of my phone all the time though? 🤔
      And yes, often can find bundles or just the listing itself with a picture

    Hi. I want to start same online arbitrage but send items on fba, only with open categories, but amazon later don’t ask you about invoice ? If yes what you provide them, if you have only receipts from store

      Usually only ask you about the invoice when you’re ungating a category. Receipts can generally prove authenticity if needed

    • @bluegrassprofits21
      @bluegrassprofits21  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think part of my reasoning for not taking them was because there were several sellers, selling for lower than the price of Amazon so it was less profit.

    • @FriedBuffaloChickenWings
      @FriedBuffaloChickenWings ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It’s possible to compete with Amazon on a listing. I did my own test about a year ago and it’s worked ever since. As long as the item is profitable both at and a little below Amazon price, send in your item AT the Amazon price for 1-3 days. Amazon doesn’t like others being at their “low, bargain price”, so they’ll sell out your units ASAP. If it doesn’t work that way, 25 cents lower than the Amazon price will get you the buy box. The only issue with that method is price tanking.

      @@FriedBuffaloChickenWings thats good to know! I'll have to give this a try. I have competed against them before with success but it was only because I got the item for such a good price. I have one item that Im currently selling FBM, I had them sent in but Amazon absolutely would not give me the buy box, they would continue to match my price all the way down. It was frustrating. They took over 50% off their price and still wouldnt give it up. It was just barely profitable for me at 50% their price. At this point, I just want to sell out of the remaining inventory I have.
