MAKE money refurbishing merchandise bought at next-to-nothing – if you don’t mind rolling the dice.
Here’s how to go about Amazon return pallets.
Amazon return pallets are pallets of returned Amazon goods that are sold on unseen at hugely discounted prices – to any seller willing to roll the dice.
As a buyer of Amazon returns, you can make a lot of money by refurbishing and reselling used merchandise online.
The more you are willing to buy, the cheaper the cost. Typically liquidated items from Amazon are sold either by the pallet or the truckload.
When you try to buy liquidated merchandise from Amazon, the pallet or bundle will usually carry an “estimated retail value” and it’s almost always sold off via an auction.
If you’ve ever watched the show “Storage Wars”, buying Amazon return pallets works in a very similar way except that you are not allowed to examine the merchandise at all.
Sites selling Amazon return pallets are typically organised by category, lot size, brands, retailers and by location.
The best way to buy Amazon return pallets is directly through Amazon. However, the Amazon auction season does not begin until after the holiday season when consumers return unwanted gifts en masse.
In addition, there are many Amazon liquidation companies out there that buy from Amazon and other independent businesses and take a cut of every sale.
Regardless, buying Amazon returns is almost always a crap shoot but if you bid less than 20% off MSRP, you have a good chance of making a profit depending on how much time you spend refurbishing your products.
In 2018, Amazon partnered with B-Stock to launch Amazon Liquidation Auctions. Amazon Liquidation Auctions is the official b2b marketplace where you can buy overstock merchandise directly from Amazon.
In order to bid on an auction, you first have to register with B-Stock and be approved to bid. There is no fee for applying or for being an approved buyer.
Right now, Amazon Liquidation Auctions is only accepting applications from the US and you must have a valid reseller certificate to be eligible.
In the UK, you can register on the Amazon EU Liquidation Auctions marketplace separately.
