  • Wanted to review risks of buying auctions on liquidation.com and how I mitigate those risks. I only buy RETURN auctions. I never buy salvaged items. If an item is worth fixing, then ill put the time into fixing it. www.liquidatio...

    Got lucky in 2016 and made a killing. 2017 was ok and took a break in 2018 to burn through some inventory. Wanted to get back into again ths year. Anywho, they have gone down hill over the years. Just a tip. Divide the msrp by six and use that as a guideline for a base price. Some people are bidding ridiculous amounts on lots. Either they know something i dont or are newbies.

      I agree the lot prices are crazy. I have to be careful I don't get bit. I like the msrp division by 6, ill have to try that when I start searching for more. Thank you for watching

    whatever your phone is cannot drive 250 ohm headphones. They were likely 100% functional. lol

    I know this video is really old, but just wanted to ask if you tried those expensive 990 Pro headphones with a headphone amplifier. I’m pretty sure you need one to hear anything from your phone. Just a thought in case you get any in the future.

      @jabatheshort660 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Kris T. Stuff that’s exactly what I would say is wrong. Those are meant to be run off a sound card with a computer. I own the same headphones

      @jabatheshort660 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Potato yeah you will hear music depending on what chip is driving the phone/mp3. I just needs enough power to make any noise and that can vary widely depending on the device

      Nope. When made this video it was possible to make decent money. It still was a crap shoot. Now the electronic lots are junk.

    @iwin4985 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    what if you won the auction but it was missing a few things from the manifest, what would happen then?
    and my last question, what if you won the auction and wanted to pick it up in person, is that possible?

    • @nathanhensn8717
      @nathanhensn8717 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If you buy salvage try buying multiple of the same things. It's pretty sketch on the electronic side of things. If you don't have the skill to take 5 broken things and turn it into 1 refurbished thing then don't even bother. If you do have those skills, time, and money then go for it.

    I was wondering how you manage your spreadsheet. Is there any correlation to how you organize the things you buy physically? Like how and where do you keep all that stuff? Really appreciate the videos, much love from Texas

    • @LiquidationOH
      @LiquidationOH  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes i had planned both of these for videos! I will show you how I manage my spreadsheet and how i organize my items. I'm evolving as I go as now that i have over 130 listing it gets hard to find items. But I would love to show you how i do it! Video coming soon!

  • @howieisboss

    You mentioned soldering. What type of repairs are you mainly doing when you decide to fix something? Is it soldering or is it something like popping a bezzle open and replacing a simple part? Thanks for anything you can tell me! Your videos are a GREAT help and I am looking to buy my first lot soon!!!

    • @LiquidationOH
      @LiquidationOH  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +BBrzy glad to help! Sometimes if something isn't working correctly or shorted I'll open it up. If a wire is loose and needs a new internal matter (which I'll swipe from another broken unit), then I will solder them back on or get it functioning. Nothing major just simple wire reconnection or switch outs

    • @howieisboss
      @howieisboss 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Liquidation OH Thank you so much. I realized you are from Ohio! That makes two of us! I'm really excited to get into this business and greatly appreciate help from you. I can't wait to buy my first lot. Just got my first good thrift store purchase today!!

      The thing about soldering is risk of electrical shock/injury/fire liability with the buyer. I had liability insurance just in case. People love to sue and damn if it's a defective solder joint they should. Personally I recommend estate auctions.

    • @dylanmcewan7504
      @dylanmcewan7504 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Well the salvage category contains mostly broken items, and unless they are your sort of expertise to fix, I would imagine you'd be wasting a lot of money.

    • @LiquidationOH
      @LiquidationOH  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You are correct. At the moment i don't have time to fix multiple items. I've been tempted to pull the trigger on a salvage auction but that is multiplying my risk

  • @Domboy448

    Ok another question for you so I'm thinking I only have like 6 ratings on eBay if I was to buy a box and start posting on eBay that's my only personal risk that I won't be able to sell items cause I have really no feedback?any pointers on that situation besides putting up good and the best prices up

    • @LiquidationOH
      @LiquidationOH  7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      As long as your 100% I don't see any issues. I see a ton of new sellers on ebay with low ratings. Everyone's gotta start somewhere. If your prices are what people want to pay and your high rated in my opinion you should be ok. If you're unsure of what you can get for items i would start with auctions. If you want to get rid of something or are ok with the price you'd get for it then do a Buy in Now (BIN)

    • @Domboy448
      @Domboy448 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ok I'm going to buy my first package in about a week from liquidation.com any tips on how to get a good box like right now I copy and paste the UPC code and put it in the Amazon seller app to see how much it's selling for there is that a good way you think or how do you know your getting a good box besides you know what your looking for cause you have been buying them and reselling like someone for me the first package I'm buying how could I tell it's a good one?

    • @LiquidationOH
      @LiquidationOH  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Dominick Currie I'll show you how I track my listings but make sure when you list your items that your total sum of items listed is equal to or greater than what you bought the auction for. You at least want to make your money back if not more. That's where the line falls between buy it now and auctions

    • @Domboy448
      @Domboy448 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey so how do you find the best box to buy like how do you know or find out what items are worth before buying the box to make sure your going to make a little money on it?

    • @LiquidationOH
      @LiquidationOH  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Dominick Currie in the beginning I would browse tons of auctions and pull items off the manifest. I would then search selling prices of those items on eBay and make sure the sum of the selling prices outweighed the auction/shipping price

  • @gotthenumber
    @gotthenumber 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    How much did you pay total?

    • @LiquidationOH
      @LiquidationOH  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ok I joined now and just another question do you ever go to thrift stores for items??will it be a good place for me to work to try to improve the selling business like for good items to sell on eBay do you think personally it's a good spot for what I'm trying to do?

    • @Domboy448
      @Domboy448 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Liquidation OH I'm sorry for all the questions and bothering it's just I'm really looking forward to starting this buying and reselling business I've always wanted to run my own business and I hope to take it that far and I just want you to know I really do appreciate pointers and tips your giving me I really do thank you

    • @LiquidationOH
      @LiquidationOH  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Dominick Currie yeah I used to go to thrift stores to find items. It wouldn't hurt as you might find some items but more than likely you'll have to go multiple times to anything of value
