Well I guess we won't be going sourcing in stores for a while, but the flip must go on! If you want to take advantage on online sourcing, but don't know where to shop here are some great websites with awesome deals!
1. Mystery Boxes on Poshmark!
There are re-sellers you can support in this time, so I always recommend this first. Use search terms "Mystery Box" or "Inventory Box". Be sure to ask the seller any questions you might have before purchasing. For instance, how many items per box, what brands and sizes, etc.
2. Goodwill https://www.shopgoodwill.com/
I find this gem recently but have not yet ordered anything! You bid on different items (you can sort by category) Anything from shoes to art, jewelry, sports, and antiques! Right now there's 2 gorgeous purses on there! I saw a Louis Vuitton Speedy (already Authenticated) available for $240 and a Gucci cross body bag available for $200.
3. Facebook Reseller Live Auction https://www.facebook.com/groups/886359628405720/
People post items on Facebook to ship directly. Typically great value! Note: there is no "buyer protection", so ask questions and proceed with caution!
4. Thredup Rescue Boxes https://www.thredup.com/rescues?tswc_redir=true
There are different options of category and price. I have no personally purchased, but might need to give one a try! (25 t-shirts for $28 or women's clothing $60 for 25 items) many are selling out, so they must be doing alright!
5. Poshmark/Thredup/The Real Real
If you don't want a Rescue box, sort these websites by brand, then price low to high. I also like to filter condition. I personally do not sell anything that is lower than the quality than I would purchase. It still feels like a treasure hunt, but without leaving your house.
6. Order a pallet!
If you have the cash and determination, order a wholesale pallet! They will ship it directly to you, and you will definitely be busy a while! I have read great reviews of B&G trading and Eagletrade.com but do some research and see what fits YOUR business.
7. Retail Arbitrage
Many websites are still operating like offsaks (today there's a code for 25% extra off clearance). Search through your emails, or visit your favorite stores websites to see if there's something trendy at a good price! also J. Crew Factory has the cutest spring dresses and there's a sale right now for extra 60% extra off clearance.
When looking through these items online, take use the same amount of time and effort to review brand, quality, size, and depending on the website, authenticity. If a deal seems too good to be true, ask WHY before you purchase!
I'm not a doctor, but I don't want anyone getting sick because of me, so I suggest leaving anything you order in its package for 3 days to be safe. (If you have to accept the order within a certain amount of time, use gloves & caution)
Good luck on your online sourcing adventure! Put on some fun music and start that treasure hunt! If you have any other questions, reach out! I'm happy to help.
