How Buying Liquidation Inventory Works

Use this buying process to make an informed enquiry and prepare for your purchase.

1. Choose a Merchandise Category

Start with inventory you understand: tools, electronics, clothing or mixed merchandise. Decide how you plan to sell it and how much stock you can process.

2. Review the Specific Lot

Read condition notes, quantities and available manifests. Check whether photographs show the actual inventory. Ask about testing, accessories, sourcing and any details missing from the listing.

3. Confirm Total Costs and Terms

Review the merchandise price, applicable purchase terms and shipping quote. International buyers should obtain destination confirmation through our international enquiries process. Make sure payment and fulfilment instructions are clear.

4. Complete the Agreed Purchase Process

Follow the ordering instructions supplied for your lot and retain the listing, quote and order confirmation. Availability is determined by the actual order confirmation, not by an enquiry alone.

5. Prepare to Receive and Process the Goods

Arrange space and any required receiving equipment. Follow the delivery and claims procedures provided with the order, then inspect and sort the inventory for your resale channels.

6. Review Your Results Before Scaling

Track sellable quantities, processing time and achieved prices. Use those figures to decide whether your next purchase should be similar stock, another category or a larger bulk order.
