Episode notes
Live Selling Changes The Apparel Liquidation Math
- Live selling on apps like Whatnot removes listing prep and photography, changing the economics for low-dollar apparel lots.
- That shift makes liquidated truckloads and pallets viable because sellers can sell in bulk on-camera and avoid per-item listing costs.
Sell Bulk Or Wholesale First
- Use live platforms to sell bulk liquidation rather than listing each item individually to save time and fees.
- Also wholesale pallets to other sellers or screen printers to recoup investment quickly.
Penny Bids Create High-Margin Opportunities
- Liquidation marketplaces list massive apparel loads with opening bids at pennies per unit.
- Those penny-per-item openings create high-margin opportunities if logistics and fees are managed.
