Topic: How and where can I buy products in bulk to re sell?

Anonymous A started this discussion 12 years ago #34,117

Been searching but haven't found much.

What vendors do the large retail chains generally use?

whole salers
if you go to a company's web site they often have a page for if you're looking to buy whole sale for distribution

Costco. Lots of small businesses use Costco.

from Yahoo! Answers
[[Apple also requires the following before they will even look at you:

* Business license
* General liability insurance certificate
* Photos of each sales location (interior and exterior)
* Tax exemption certificate (if your entity is exempt from state/provincial sales tax)]]

you won't get a whole sale distributor for apple products, but i'm sure it's easier to obtain/hock cheap blu-ray players

textbooks would probably also be very difficult as they are always expensive

@OP
Large retail chains like Walmart deal directly with the manufacturers. For cheap off-brand consumer electronics, there's Alibaba.

Import electronics from China and flog them on eBay with a throwaway account. Or steal stuff.

I fenced a few grands worygh of sauna equipment that I acquired. I flogged it all on eBay asap then never logged onto that account again.

This would be sweet if legit. Smells like a scam though.
