One question that has been coming up a lot in our Facebook group is whether or not Retail Arbitrage (RA) is still a viable way to run a business in 2018. We began our Amazon businesses with retail arbitrage, but things are a bit different now as Amazon has continued to evolve and change its policies over the years. However, we still believe this can be a lucrative way to run your business if done with the right strategies and tools.
Today, we dig into all things retail arbitrage, starting with what it is and explaining why Amazon is not the only platform for selling your inventory. We discuss the pros and cons of this method and explain why we no longer focus on it in our businesses. We also share how you can sell retail arbitrage bundles, and we offer up our list of must-haves for your RA product sourcing trips.
“Retail arbitrage will never die completely. As long there’s a market and someone's buying and someone’s selling, retail arbitrage will never die.” - Kristin Ostrander
