youre just going to drink all that you fucking wino. dont try to act like its a business and not just your weekly liquor store run

How do you resell it?

he thinks he will sell all that junk for 200k

Actually you're lying bc that pic was not taken in the winter.

>>52832100
Good luck. You think the store liquidating didn’t try what you are trying?

>>52832100
>VHS
>200k
Lol lmao

>>52832132
That's a photo from google.
I'm not putting personal pics bro.
>>52832215
I have been doing this for years and have a website. But the idea works.
If you want to hustle you will make a lot of money.
If you don't, you won't.

At all times there is a saturated or totally defunct market and at the same time a market starving for these very goods.
But you have to do work.
My friend retired at 40 and has been in his underwear since because he did this hustle all through his 30s.
You need cash and you need a warehouse and you need to not fear actual work.

>>52832238
they are probably laughing behind their backs that they found some idiot that gave them $20,000 for their unsellable junk

>>52832232
>>52832235
>>52832248
>so stupid they think using a google stock image means it's a larp
Anything to avoid real work right?

>>52832235
lol it’s not even that light outside either 30min ago. good luck selling your vhs tapes and books OP, you just got robbed

Son! where are we going to put all this junk? Heh, it's called hustlin', mom... you're not scared of a little work are you?

>>52832249
>You need cash and a warehouse up front to not be poor
Fucking idiot

It's hilarious to watch perpetually poor faggots knee jerk to ANY, and I mean ANY, conclusion that means they don't have to work.

My actual purchase was of solid brass furniture items that weighed a ton (several actually) and me picking it up saved at least $4,000 on freight.
Probably more at like 8% COG by the end if I accounted for the actual cost to import currently.
Back not so sore, feels good.
Did this yesterday morning.
Too tired to shitpost yesterday.

>>52832315
>having no imagination
You don't need an amazon warehouse.
And if you can't scrounge 5k to start, you'll never make it anyway.
This can be done in your garage on a smaller scale until you build up.

>>52832100

>>52832249
Kys faggot

>>52832330
Despite the fact that this is blatantly bait, and retarded shit bait at that, I'll bite -

If you make so much money, give us your breakdown: how much do you pay for the warehouse and the uhaul and all the infrastructure to sell your items. Also, include how much you paid for your items to resell, as well as how many hours you put in finding the items, buying and loading them, unloading them, listing them, selling and packing and shipping them.

Altogether: what's your income per hour of time spent?

I'll repeat: you're a fucking idiot and you deserve to be carjacked and stabbed by a nigger.

>>52832341
If you are stupid, nothing will help you.
You can't come up with $5,000? You can't save any money?
Your main issue, and I GUARANTEE THIS, is that you'll never load a truck or try hard arrange this type of thing.

>>52832353
I work 5/12s, make 38 per her. Trade job. Dont fucking lecture on working hard. 5000 grand will not get a god damn warehouse and enougj capital to buy your bullshit until you flip it.

You're either being purposefully obtuse or youre a lying faggot, Probably both

>>52832352
I loaded it all myself on this trip.
The UHAUL was $300 after insurance because I didn't want it stolen in STL.
Two old ladies helped me load by packing, that's who I bought out.
I have a pick and pack and 100,000 ft warehouse space because I've done this so long.
My friends literally made millions of dollar starting with a box truck and a few thousand dollars in the 90s.
A BOX TRUCK WAS HIS ONLY ASSET.

>income per hour
Not calculable, very good though. When you by something for 10% cost to produce it, it's hard to lose money. You don't worry about whether you 10x or 5x or 2x until later.

>carjacked
I was in St. Charles, everyone was white and told me Merry Christmas as I loaded.
I still, as mentioned above, took precaution.

>>52832368
So you can do what I am doing.
You just have to start looking around. You'll have a lot more fun working for yourself than trade jobbing.
There is no way I didn't clear $40/h. I only put 10 hours in this so far.

>>52832368
Also, you start in your garage.
>purposely obtuse
I think that's YOU given that you are pretending to not realize you can start smaller and move up from there.
Or are you really that stupid or maybe a zoomer? Expand your time horizon.

>>52832318
listen up corn pop, you’re the roodypoo that posted an image of books and vhs jack. we’re laughing at the bait you provided. simple as

>>52832433
I'm not talking to people that will use ANY excuse not to work or consider that work is a good option.
>op used a stock image
>YES I DON"T HAVE TO WORK STILL AND MY DOG COINS WILL MAKE IT

I had dreams of doing stuff like this after I graduated college and got a job. I didn't get a job and had to move to my family's third world country and became a NEET though. I'll go back to the US some day though.

I really don't know how I would have done it anyway, I probably would have just wasted my paycheck on some worthless junk

>>52832352
These items came to me also because I'm known to liquidate operations.
This is another thing that will come slow and steady for people willing to work and actually have a business where your reputation precedes you.

>>52832424
>>52832383
I dont have a garage. Youre acting like a boomer and assuming everyone has the same circumstances as you. Not everyone is a townie or suburban fag.

And you say you flip it on you're website...sure let me just build a website and make it popular while i sit on all this inventory and raise 2 kids and work 55 to 60 hours a week.

Explain better or fuck off. Dont do the boomer gloat anymore

>>52832466
The number one thing is to have cash in hand.
The amount of stuff you can get for $5,000 if you can immediately hand over $5,000 is unreal and most normies would not even believe it.

People want to liquidate, storing the items costs them money, THEY WANT IT GONE...NOW.
This is where the box truck and work ethic come into play.
I say "I'll be there tomorrow with cash."
I show up the next day with cash.

>>52832100
>claims a 10x
>doesn't say what the inventory is
your plastic chinkshit that you bought at auction will be lucky to sell with a 5% margin.

>>52832506
Not doing your work for you.
It took me twenty years to get here. I did not start with all this stuff.
I started with a truck and a leaky building.

My friend literally lived in his box truck driving circles around the country buying shit here, trading it here, selling it there, and shows up back where he started with money and still a full truck.
Repeat 100 times, retire.
It's a hustle.

While i was hustling, a literal boomer hustler came by, saw me hustling, and gave me his card to his antiques warehouse and we talked about how he hustled when he was my age.
It's a club with no membership.

>>52832525
Solid brass items that are so nice and expensive no one bothers to import them anymore because of weight and lack of people to buy it.
I however, will make out like a bandit because I paid no freight and selling at cost to produce is still at 5-10x for me.

You really WISH this stuff don't you?
Think about it. Reflect.

>>52832514
Yeah but the problem is making sure the shit you bought isn't crap that will cost more in storage fees than you can offload it for.
I suppose in the beginng that's less of a problem if you're working with small amounts, but then the issue is if you can sell it for more than you bought it for at all.

>>52832555
i'm guessing you have a special connection to sellers. in general the market for this type of thing seems very small. i would be hard pressed to sell items like this at all to strangers, let alone at a 5-10x markup on purchase + freight + holding costs.

>>52832263
I never implied its a larp and you never mentioned its not your picture retard

Cope and seethe

>>52832578
The only thing he has is a tiny dick and the boredom to troll strangers on the internet.

>>52832370
>Doesn't know the ballpark breakdown of the cost of his time inputs, all things considered
>Insists he makes more per hour of his life than I make per hour of mine

Damn look at Warren Buffet go over here, let me get a pen and paper and take notes.

>>52832318
So you bought 130,000 pieces of brass furniture for 21k? And you plan to sell this furniture for roughly $2 a piece to gross $200k, while storing it for 2 years.
Just making sure I've got your story straight.

>>52832314

>>52832100
its nice to see actual business outside of crypto shit.

whats your strategy on selling?

Liquidation is based, bought Amazon return pallets during covid with my stimmy checks. Easy money but it is manual work, not hard though.

>>52832604

i've bought some scientific equipment at pharma/lab liquidation auctions and flipped it. i've actually succeeded a few times, but in general the auctions are competitive and the market for sales is very niche (much like high end/expensive brass furniture, although maybe not to such an extreme.) for every 2-5x item you purchase and resell, you have a dozen stinkers that sit in inventory for years before selling at a loss.

this guy either has an amazing network for prospective buyers... or he's LARPing.

>>52832100
OP you should make a reality tv show like american pickers but more serious. Instead of going to old guys car and antique collections you go to business liquidations. Its a niche that is missing in reality TV falling somewhere between american pickers and storage wars

>>52832352
>working by the hour
ngmi lad. ALWAYS charge by the job/ project. Hourly mentality is slavery.

>>52832678
time is your most precious resource. hourly is the ONLY thing that matters.

>>52832424
My garage is on a property that cost me 300k

>>52832318
Kill yourself honestly why did you make this thread? Did you think we would worship you for posting your pathetic larp? Even if it was true, what makes you think anyone cares, especially if you pretend like you’re something special instead of just some random faggot who’s barely making 6 figures a year pre tax?

>>52832678
Didn't say I charge by the hour, but I do think by the hour. An expensive project is a good sell if it takes little time and stress, less of a good sell if its going to take you twice the hours and stress to complete.

>>52832368
By 40 ft shipping container and you have the cubic capacity of a two-car garage and you can pick one up delivered for less than $5,000 and put it in your yard or next to your house or under your homeless tent

>>52832578
This is correct. This is also the reason I've mentioned "zoomer" a few times here.
It's low time preference that leaves so many people with nothing to show at the end.
I didn't just magically have these connections.
I got them over years of hustling and proving I'm a hustler.

The idea you can start out like me is of course incorrect.

>>52832100
This is some Storage Wars valuation going on here

>>52832625
I just gave you ballpark. What are you talking about?
It's a disparate group of products I bought at on the very cheap.
When you have a for sure money maker you don't itemize shit out.
Liquidations are "take it all, or leave it all" deals.
I have a list of items, quantity, and what I paid.
It's all so cheap i can't lose.
I'll price and determine post facto where I want to price and unload things.

>>52832631
>brass furniture ITEMS
It's hardware faggot. I'll just spell it out.
.15-.25 in each piece, sometimes less, and I'll move every one for $3 minimum over time.
I bought out a specialty hardware store.

>>52832640
I have a brick and mortar and website. You can hustle stuff all over and it depends on who you know and what type of operation you want to run and what situation you are in.
Works best if you are rural because storage space is cheap.
>>52832646
Based.
You can currently get FULL SEMI LOADS of HomeGoods furniture, BestBuy stuff, etc. for 4,000+freight.
>>52832652
This is actually a fucking genius idea and I have connections (kinda) because I've had my products on HGTV before.
>>52832692
Well you already fucked up.
But regardless. My entire truckload would fit in that garage.

>>52832696
I made the thread to encourage and give ideas to the 5% of people that are sour, bitter faggots in this forum.

>>52832686
so what I hear you say is you restrict your hourly compensation to a certain number. Thats FUD. Strike it from your heart. If you cant charge by the job/ project, your scope of work is ill-defined and favors the client's time over yours.

>>52832100
I hate larpers so much its unreal. The OP is weak. All the bait that follows is gay. Don't bother with this thread anons. Move on to something more interesting.

>>52832892
it's hilarious that you're saying "bro charge money on a per-job basis but also be conscious of how long it takes you to do the job" while still maintaining that hourly rate is for slaves. you do see the contradiction here, right -- or do i need to explicitly lay it out?

anyways, i used to work at a professional services firm. there's a reason why flat fee engagements are a living hell and hourly charge rates were the "good old days."

>>52832631
Now, I'm about to go unload this stuff with my crew, but I need to point out one thing using this anon as example.

There are two types of people.
The first type sees any situation or hears any story and thinks..."How can I disprove this and how can this NOT be true?"
The other type of person things "How COULD this be true?"

You will get a lot further asking the question about how it could be true.
"Critical thinking" has been pushed for a reason.
It closes your window of thinking and opportunity when you "criticize" things.

>inb4 REEEEEEEE
Sorry just true. You close your world to 95% of possibility when you have the urge to insist things can't be true.

>>52832901
>buy dog coins and never make it
kek
Maybe I'll do it again the seething as been so nice.
Even the THOUGHT of work and making money by it, as opposed to riding the coattails of others via dog coins, makes /biz/lets seethe so much.

I remember you. You got into an argument about inflation here a few months back. I remember the one pharmacy guy too.
Anon can you break down how I get started? I have no money man. I can get a storage unit and U-Haul pretty cheap though.

>>52832100
To be frank you seem based. A man that does the work. I respect that.

>>52832883
Who do I call to get those semi loads of homegoods furniture dude?

>>52832948
Yes, that's me. I know inflation because I import as well.

If this thread is bumped I'll come back. I am really moving to unload after this post. Can't be baited to stay longer but your post has good intent.

I would start by finding places looking to buy certain things. Then look for those things. Estate sales.
Use days you have off to get some estate sale shit and store it while you sell it on marketplace/craigslist.
I'd HUSTLE this type of thing until I could look into bigger buys.
You need at least a pick up truck though.
Or partner up with someone else willing to work. Takes two people to carry out a $10 dresser.
Get your mind whirling and investigate markets.
Don't just go headlong into buying whatever is cheap.
Although, honestly, now that I have a system in place, I buy anything that is cheap.
I have the security to know I can move it and I'm not poor though.
So...be picky to start.

>>52832959
Google.
>time bomb post I'm gone already

>>52832980
Just out of curiosity, do you have some preferred merchandise you look for? Do you have merchandise that you avoid/hate?

>>52832980
Thanks anon. I've been considering focusing on furniture. My big issue is scalability. I can't figure how to get a consistent supply but after reading your other posts I guess the answer is just "network".
Thanks for taking the time to post I needed to see this this morning.

>>52832883
>I have a brick and mortar and website
Lmao this isn't a hustle it's your job.

>>52832931
>my crew

You left out a lot of key details that made this seem a lot less plausible than it is based on what's actually going on anon.

Kinda like someone coming here and saying they just bought 200k worth of trinkets off Alibaba they're gonna flip it all in a couple years for 50x profit.
And then reveal his name is Jeff Bezos and he owns Amazon and controls what people buy and thus has an obvious advantage in having the opportunity and ability to do what what would otherwise be impossible.

What? Yes you most certainly do. If you run a business you also do the books. You'll have an intimate understanding of your cash flows. I think you are exaggerating to an incredible degree about the amount of money spent altogether, and it sounds like you are probably doing this after having retired from a real job.

>>52832999
Come on, don't ignore my trips!

can someone make a liquidator/hustler wojak

Not directly related to op, but on this topic.
People outside EU are making bank by buying out auctioned corporate computers. Every 5 years or so Western corps sell off their used office computers. You get in the auction and buy like a few hundred computers at 20% of their actual used market value.
Then you can resell them one by one or take out components or upgrade some with ssds and GPUs, etc.
You can easily do a x10.
Needs computer hardware skills and to install operating systems, and some storage room...
The market for it always refreshing as hardware requirements are rising and normalfags don't want to pay official store prices.

>>52832318
Where are you going to sell it op i want to do the same thing you are doing. Isnt furniture hard to sell especially online you cant ship these

how to find liquidations?
>>52833669
like this

>>52833985
Some gambian guys do it in my region. They sell it in Africa via their brothers who live there. Why not call a big office and ask where and when they sell their old computers? Talking doesn't hurt.

This guy inspired me to do something. This crypto bullshit has made people lazy watching charts and YouTube videos to refill their copium when they could be working. I've got a pretty substantial amount in crypto and I'm going to halve my position and invest into a new business. My old business is too dangerous and has too much liability so I will go balls to the wall getting the next one going. OP is probably too busy working to answer.

You're now telling us you have an entire receiving team. As in workers, with overhead. What the fuck dude, why would you even frame it all as though it was just some personal jaunt for you? You're posting anonymously, there's no advantage to lying kek

>>52832540
>Bro just work 20 years to get to the point where you can make money easily like I do, it's that shrimple

This is forgetting you literally started off WITH a building. How many zoomies you think can do even that? No, actually, how many do you think would even be able to get the fuckin truck kek. That's like $20,000 minimum. Even if he's living out of it driving from place to place while paying it off, how do you think he's going to be going around buying and selling shit? I just don't think you're really analyzing this from the point of view of starting off with actually nothing today. Like every boomer you think everything works the way it did when you were a lad. Ah, well.

>>52832765
>oh you can't afford to live alone? Just buy a fucking shipping container and put it next to your house. Or uh, outside in a public area you don't own. I dunno dude, my dad gave me a lot of money I just kinda fuck around and do what I want

autism. I've read a lot of dumb larps on /biz/ but this is not one of them.
This is not a get rich quick scam but he probably makes $20-$80 an hour doing this. its similar to dropshipping

buy a couch for $20, let it sit on craigslist or ebay for months, sell it for $150. that's his business model and his biggest problem is storage costs.
finding a "crew" is not hard, put up a help wanted ad, and offer someone $50 to help you load the shit for a few hours. Then ask them if they want similar jobs in the future. they're not permanent employees.

>>52832883
Don’t argue with most of the people on this board. They’re more interested in shitcoins than guaranteed income from reputable companies that pay put dividends. They’re mostly just gamblers.

>>52835171
This post is a perfect example of that. I was on unemployment in 2021 as a neet and now I make six figures. All because I made up a really good sounding resume and applied to a few dozen places online while sounding confident enough in interviews. You have teenagers making millions on Amazon selling homemade candles, there is no excuse to be poor if you are a westerner.

I think the way I've read this is that he is NOW bigger and is giving youngsters tips on how to start a hustle and what it takes to run a hustle.

Which you two are kinda exemplifying.

Yea, he spent $20k and got a shit ton of stuff.
It's pretty easy to eyeball if you got $20k worth if you've ever done something like this.
Liquidation and auction stuff has a 10-20% float on what is even "in the deal" sometimes.
Everyone knows this.
You buy it by the pile. Or truck load or whatever.

What are you talking about? He didn't give any tips whatsoever. His post was just gloating, stating he can easily make 10x how much he's buying, and phrased it as a hustle, e.g. a side job. He stated it as though /biz/ just doesn't want to work. What he failed to mention is that he has a team of workers he employs, and a receiving. He doesn't have a hustle, he has a fucking business. The figures he's offering aren't something for someone to do as a hustle. It was only after subsequent posts when people were asking how he even runs this "hustle" that he explained that this was after decades of work. He even admitted later that anyone that hasn't sourced valuable clientele would have no hope of turning the profit he did. Telling someone with no skills, no assets, and no effective source of income to just spend twenty years doing this one highly specialized thing and you'll be set is going to be ignored most times because it's infantile to assume anyone would plan their life around that very specific outcome met, with no concrete measures to reach that outcome.

>>52835538
>Where does he say he started with a building?
In the actual post he made, did you read it at all?

"I started with a truck and a leaky building."

He started with two assets that are a pipe dream for any zoomer starting off. You think the average kid getting out of high school with nothing other than a shitty part-time job, or worse exiting college saddled with tens of thousands of dollars of debt, is going to be able to afford a $20,000 box-truck and tens of thousands of dollars on a building to store merchandise? "Just use your garage," you say, presupposing the kid will have a fucking garage. It's not a seething rejection, it's pointing out that this isn't a realistic scenario for the vastest majority of kids today.

>>52836056
Back for lunch.
You are a "you can't do that" person and you will forever be poor. The point is to go out and make things happen.
In rural areas leaky buildings are everywhere.
A shitty truck is like $3,500.
GET YOUR MIND WORKING.
These tips are for anons with some potential. Not perpetually fearful of action incels frantically pounding their keyboard.
>gloating
I got my start watching old timers gloat over buying a whole truck load of coat hangers and then scrapping them for double what they paid.
It's a mindset.
I don't have to hustle anymore. But I still rented a UHAUL and drove to STL to load the stuff myself. Saved me $5,000 easily.
It's a mindset. You don't have it. You don't need to be so long winded for us to know you don't have it.

Don't listen to the YOU CAN'T people. Start thinking about how you CAN.
How could I do this? Not,why can't I do this?

Literally if you are dirt poor with nothing you can hustle.
These faggots are literally saying to do nothing as opposed to at least considering your options.
Heaven forbid you make a little money by real work.
I mean...the risk is HUGE.
You might just make some money and not become rich!!!

Anons who already have jobs like the trade guy above should be saving up 10-30k in case for if an opportunity like the above arises.
Deals come to those who are prepared to seize the day.

i've been looking for a side gig in addition to my regular job.
I drive a tow truck part time, it pays the bills.
i wanna do something else though to make a shit ton of money
I did door dash in 2020 and made pretty decent money, I bought a shitty old tacoma to run deliveries and that was good while it lasted but eventually dried up and i junked the shitty work truck.

what can i do with like $2500 you think?

flipping cars is too unreliable, sellers have a lifetime to hide car problems and you have 20-30 minutes to find them all.

i used to work for an auctioneer when i was like 19 so i actually know the business fairly well.

>You are a "you can't do that" person and you will forever be poor. The point is to go out and make things happen.
I'm a "Don't listen to some old fuck from 50 years ago who lived in a time where he could do that easily" person. You're a gambler bragging that you made it big in a time when any gambler who had functioning limbs made it big, you simply do not understand that most people today do not have what you did then, nor is the world as kind to them for being as incapable as you were.

>A shitty truck is like $3,500.
What kind of shitty truck? A box truck? You find one for $3,500 and not only are you lucky, you're also looking at a liability that will NOT function very long. Not something a zoomer would bet his life on, which he would be doing if he went forward with this.

>I got my start watching old timers gloat over buying a whole truck load of coat hangers and then scrapping them for double what they paid.
>It's a mindset.
Gloating isn't a mindset, it's just you jerking yourself off because you were successful and assume everyone today is just lazy. it's another boomer just endlessly fellating himself because he gained skills and built a career in a time when anyone with a frontal lobe would fall ass backwards into the equivalent of a six figure job today.

>Literally if you are dirt poor with nothing you can hustle.
Okay, show it right now. Assume a zoomer who is 18 is following your advice. They have absolutely nothing and are at the bottom, exactly where you were. They are broke, currently working at a minimum wage job living paycheck to paycheck. They are making $900 a paycheck. They live in a one-bedroom apartment they share with another. Their portion of the rent is $1,100, their phone bill is $115, their gas is $120, and their food is $200. They have a take-home pay of $3,180 a year assuming absolutely nothing at all happens that incurs a cost, such as car trouble, an illness, a crash, etc.

best thread on /biz/ in weeks by far

>>52832352

my man, this is like suggesting drop shipping. most things worth buying on auction or by warehouse don't have a value proposition. that is why companies like amazon specifically bulk sell return/garbage in carefully curated 'packs' that they won't tell you what is in them. most of these things have been min/maxed. you having friends that did this 30 years ago means nothing. you will not make millions doing this. they have figured out an online auction or careful curating of liquidations makes most of their money back. the stuff left over is laborious items that you might get at a good price but will take forever to sell or are labor intensive. maybe you got a head start 30 years ago with your friends, and if so more power to you, but someone couldn't do this today. you're benefitting from years of profits. you just told us you already have a warehouse and sales infrastructure which means an existing platform and customer base. maybe you also already have connections with sellers/auction houses. the list goes on

>>52838632
The point is that it's not a larp and that anons with work ethic and seemingly "no options" can hustle and make quite a bit of money.
It's not for everyone. But if you have cash on hand as many anons do, it's a better more stable return than dog coins.

What is your website

>>52838898

i mean okay you're talking about furniture it seems like specifically which is definitely something that people typically have an issue getting rid of in auction because people want to see it in person and it doesn't do super well online because it takes a ton to ship it (as you mentioned). however, it has other issues. it loses value the second it's no longer appreciably 'new,' the shipping and storage costs are astronomical, and over time the furniture (materials, wood, etc.) will break down. it's also based on style trends in interior decoration. one year classic furniture is in, then next modern. the other thing you're saying you bought good quality furniture but i highly doubt it. a nice actually good quality couch will cost 10-15k. you bought some shit that will rot in a warehouse after a few years of being exposed to moisture it seems to me. where are you selling this furniture? do you own a furniture store? i highly doubt people are buying this furniture online from your web portal, and if they are, how are you shipping economically? what kind of warranties are you offering? what about returns?

Brass is heavy and costs more to ship.

Shipping is about volume not weight. You just have no clue. Weight is meaningless in shipping.

Where do you even find places that are liquidating?
Wouldn’t everyone be jumping to buy their stock?

Got any specifics on selling this shit once you get it? Seems like all the advice in this thread is 'buy liquidations bro' and not explaining how you move the products to the consumer.

You sound like a negative pussy. I had a Ford escort, a rake, a tarp and a shovel 10 years ago. I was 23 and I had no ged a baby on the way and my stupid bitch ex who wouldn't cook me food (I dumped her and got custody of my son) my parents are both tweekers and I had to grind it out because of no safety net, I couldn't even get a job because of a criminal record from my 18th birthday I have a beautiful family with 5 kids a property now worth a quarter million. It literally started from me going door to door selling yard work in a Ford escort and reinvestment into myself. I'll be a millionaire in 10 more years and I had NOTHING handed to me. I'm even changing the business I'm in next year and I might even be a millionaire sooner. Can do beats a negative attitude. Don't be a pussy, I'm not a boomer with anything handed to me and shitty parents. If I can you can. OP is fucking based.

There are a lot of different ways things ship these days.

>You sound like a negative pussy
I'm a realist. A can do attitude and a slap on the ass doesn't materialize experience or give guidance on how to be successful, if that sounds negative maybe it's because the reality is most aren't successful and it's not due to lack of effort but lack of opportunity. What if every single time you brought that rake to someone's door they told you to fuck off? Just keep on to the next house, again and again? What would you do if you ran out of money to eat and live? All of it, every last cent? I'm not saying tell people to give up, I'm saying be realistic and think of what kids today are actually going to be able to do and why they are inclined to skepticism when someone gives them an incredibly unrealistic path to success.

>It literally started from me going door to door selling yard work in a Ford escort and reinvestment into myself.
And? Did you take from my post that no one should ever put in effort to improve their situation economically? I'm glad that you managed to become successful, that's a great story and I'm sure you're very proud of your accomplishments.

ok sure buddy you make a living off of flipping brass lamps. this thread sucks and you immediately fold once anyone starts asking you any real questions

>>52839393
>idk the difference between shipping and trucking.

Shipping uses cargo ships. It's based on volume. Not weight. So if you bulk buy shit being manufactured overseas you ship it. By volume. That is cost is about the space it takes up on the ship.

Once the product gets here its on trucks or trains or planes. That's by weight.

Yeah I know peoole often say shipping to cover the entire transport cost.

However, if we are talking business and manufactured goods. Shipping means on a ship.

>>52839454
I have gone into detail in several posts.
I specifically said it's hardware in one post but you haven't read the thread like newfags, wandering into conversations and into the middle of movies with no context at all.
>>52839440
Can't be doxxin'.
I do sell on Ebay though and you don't need a website for that. But I would recommend flipping entire lots to start really.
Buy something really cheap. Sit and wait for several months looking for a buyer possibly if that's what it takes. then sell the whole thing and just double up or something.
I have an operation now and can do lots better.
Starting out it's not realistic or practical in many cases.
It's better to find buyers. Find out what people want first. Then locate the items for a fast flip.
You are just gonna have to think, feel it out, see what you can do in your area.

>>52839467
Dude, it goes off the ship and then someone like Holland or XPO takes ahold of it.
It's all just averaged out into the landed cost of goods. Just common parlance. It includes everything to get to me.
If it's fucking heavy as shit like brass it adds up.
And REGARDLESS, it was about 10 pallets worth. I picked it up myself. Saved a ton of money,
QUITCHA QUIBBLING

>>52839393
Thank you anon. I hope our country gets fixed. Maybe my persistent nature helped me. I got told to fuck off hundreds of times and never became negative because I just refused to go back and work for anyone because nobody would pay me more than $9.50 an hour at that time and I owed it to my child. I've had ups and downs but my chart is progress if you zoom out. I hope anons can be inspired by my story. I will say one more thing, making myself fit when I was in my late teens helped with my confidence to approach people and being tall helped.

>>52839475
Annual profit?

>>52839557
To be honest I barely made anything last year. But that's because I've got to much PPE.
I'm geared up over years to handle potentially major volume and make a lot of money. But then on off years it drags.
I'd have been able to make more myself this year than I did with my operation.
But it's a long haul type thing. As another anon noted and astutely surmised, a lot of it is networking. At this point stuff comes to me a lot.
At the beginning that will not be the case at all.

Stop being poor! you just need 20k and a warehouse!

Actually you got 20k worth of shit, not 130k.

It's only worth 130k if someone else is willing to buy it off you today for that much.

I recently found out a way to ship for free, packs of up to 5kg per. Still figuring the best method of turning that into money. I want to ship 100 items per day ideally but still trying to come up with the golden ticket items to move before my workaround gets patched or I get arrested. Liquidations sound fun though

You have discredited this entire thread with this one post.

Yet you also shit on anons for not having “it” or the will to win. I currently am making money in ecom…not a lot, but a few thousand a month. Why larp like you’re a hustler when you’re aren’t making shit.

You talk about low time preference. The low time preference move would be to master a skill. Yet you sit here Grand standing/Larping like you’re making hand over fist.

You’re not a hustler. You’re a fraud.

so you're already rich. I live in an apartment like most people my age. Even if I had a house that I shared with roommates, I wouldn't have enough space for that shit. Your plan isn't realistic for poorfags

As i grew older i realized that people sometimes value their time to such an extent that they just want to get rid of stuff.. people just dont want to "sit on it" until it sells "at the rigth price" because they simply don't have the time and other times when old folks die their kids just sells their crap quickly because they want cash to consoom.
Just continously buying and selling different types of items have made me aquire a bunch of crap, but not money.

I’ll believe op is for real, but he’s consistent with the “hustlers” of the 80s and 90s - people who could make some money but had to put time in. No thanks.

>>52832100
Based. I buy printers at good will for 5-7 dollars and sell them online for good prices. I only make like 20 bucks a printer once everything is accounted for. Sometimes less. It’s hard work and my parents question my sanity but I one day dream of doing stuff like this OP. I also just started getting some stuff off Alibaba and plan to resell here for a great profit. I found a good item that’s much easier to ship than fucking printers. This printer shit is such a pain in the ass but the goodwill near me literally gives them away, 95% of them work, and I think goodwill resale can still work.

Thanks for the little motivation boost OP, larp or not. But I believe you.

Plz help a brainlet out. How did you start out with finding the liquidating businesses? I'm guessing you have time for this now. How about when you started? I hate that I have to work a regular 50-60 hours/week to keep on at 100k/year, I don't know how I would even do this.

I'm not scared of "the hard work", I've worked hard labour jobs for 5 years now, yes some of it doing transport/warehousing. I'm just dumb enough to have work ethic while not knowing how to apply myself and my time outside of "doing the hard work".

How do you sell it? Especially at the start. All the same niche as in you already have a business selling some certain items and you just look for the same items to sell? Or do you buy just anything and try to sell it over larger online retail sites? And then again at the start would you just do daily/weekly work to pick, pack, post the products if you're trying to do this yourself? Trying to figure how I can fit this into my 8-6 job.

I am willing to keep responding given the anons that have shown actual interest. But I don't have much more to add.
I did mention becoming an auctioneer earlier and that is a good idea for those that want to get a jump on networking or expand their options a little more. I didn't do that until way to late.

And nowadays, you can run online auctions even once licensed.
This is a very good market. Online estate sales. Being the auctioneer is the best position to be, but that takes a long time to build up the connections to get put in charge of lots.

But the closeouts exist and even those can be hustled. I am in good with a couple smaller corporations by now buying take down lots from major stores.
I just sell as-is and mention the packaging may not be perfect in my listing.

Okay super busy successful okie biz guy

>>52846201
a typo is when you press the wrong button, the fact that it's an homonym shouldn't affect the button you press. it just means you're stupid and illiterate. i don't care if it's a larp or not, i'm just saying your iq is low and your efficiency is probably shit because of it, even if you're making millions. you're a waste of time.

>>52846219
Ironically, to some, this is what success looks like.
I do what I want whenever I want.
I ease into the end of the year and purposely eschew deals and selling for relaxation.
The deal over the weekend was the last thing I'll do of any importance for the year probably.

>>52846224
I've typed a thousand words or maybe two thousand dude.
You are really suggesting, that you have found a word that is used incorrectly in those thousands of words I've typed, that this means I'm low IQ.
This is your suggestion?
This is your evidence?
Why do you bother?

>>52846064
yeah I'll look into that for sure. I bought myself a truck big enough for hot shot trucking to have as another option. don't forget the courthouse steps have deals too...

>>52846248
you talk too much and say very little, you tiny retard. just admit you're illiterate and it's not a typo, i don't give a shit about the rest of your thread or what else you're on about

>>52846248
>You are really suggesting, that you have found a word that is used incorrectly in those thousands of words I've typed, that this means I'm low IQ.
amusing if you think i've read the entire thread. the fact that you don't know the difference between "affect" and "effect" says it all. get rattled all you want for being called out, retard

>>52846234
Sure pal, sure.. Whatever you say. It has been a distinct pleasure watching your resplendent display of mental gymnastics as you've done everything from dodge questions to proudly launching logical fallacies as if they're helping your case.
A robust tip of my cap to you, sir.

>>52846248

HOLY SHIT.
You didn't capitalize "I" EITHER TIME.
THAT MEANS YOU DON'T KNOW YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO.
Jesus Christ you are a total fucking retard.

Fuck man that is drooling retarded.

simmer down, you illiterate little shithead. it's called netiquette to be in lowcaps and with loose sentence ending rules. being illiterate is something entirely different

kek Nice.
Not capitalizing automatically is a sign of someone that never does any official emails or notices.
Someone who NEVER types anything important.
I must put conscious effort into not capitalizing because I do real business.
You are a NEET with no reason to type correctly and so it just flows from you.

>>52846467

Leaving for work.
But I will explain for /biz/lets.
I got it at 15% or roundabout COG, maybe 10% if you add in the freight I'd have had to pay.
If your costs are 1/10th of the previous operation then that is how you make money.
There is a spread there.
Sad that I have to explain this.
She imported at full cost in 2018 or 2019.
Now selling to me at what was calculated (but always an estimate in liquidations) at 15% COG.
Well COG is up 30% since then at the low end.
So I'm buying at 15% of the 2019 cost of production.

Do you see now how this could be profitable?

I think you're all retarded. /biz/ has proved they only read white papers generated by AI and think it's work. OP spent more than a day replying to people on here. None of you work. Kill yourselves.

>>52847158
Yes, run along to your forklift job at Home Depot.
You mention selling on eBay, which of course if you actually did you’d know that would trigger a 1099-K, which again is one of the stupidest ways to sell considering shipping costs these days.
Also, your whole post reads like sad copy pasta from whatever sales book you bought from Amazon to read on your lunch break.

>>52839419
That's literally how sales works retard. Do you think every door he knocked on said yes? kek, you're a fucking joke you're not even a man you sound so afraid of failure that you're never gonna ngmi

How is this bait thread active still?
If a person really started a business like this, and wanted to inspire others to strike out on their own for success they would explain how they did it. They wouldn't be afraid to link theor site. Or post pics of their store. They would be proud. It would be free marketing.
The spanks lady shoes how she did it. The lady from Drunk Elephant isn't shy. The Burts Bees family is open.

Successful people aren't afraid of proving what they say on some dumb image board.

Friend make your own thread please. For the love of God, help us. I made solid money from crypto but I have no cash flow. I want to do e-commerce so bad but feel hamstrung whenever I try to start.

I have hours a day to work on this. Resources to get started, tips, etc Are you doing dropshipping, branded items, or just buying bulk and selling on Ebay/Amazon.

Any insight into your operations would be appreciated.

I made a sale already from the stuff I bought.

Great post. So many negative people in the thread though.
I do print on demand. I have 2000 different products. Make 3000-4000 a month from max 2 hours of work each day. That is how I know that the OP is perfectly correct in his estimates.

If I had a more stable abode instead of bumming around the world, I would also run a cheap warehouse filled with liquidated "junk". What the OP understands, and what most of you don't, is that "longtail keywords" are a goldmine.
There will always be a buyer for a spring for a Colt 1911, or a replacement battery for a specific chinkshit screwdriver. Just gotta make sure to buy your lots at the right price.

Yes interesting I always read your threads. I remember you posting about this some months back. I have about 50k laying around doing nothing and really like the idea of running my own business. Me and the wife pull in about 220k and only have 70k in expense. Use to me not working, long story but I make 6 figs now. Have about 5k a month to do whatever with. I have an IT and bar/restaurant background about a decade in each.

Please dont waste time replying to people with shitty comments and attitudes it derails the thread and doesnt do anything. I've actually seen a guy exactly like you in my old neighborhood. Drove a giant truck around with a trailer that was always parked on street. Would have this black dude with him that was borderline homeless. His day laborer , seemed like a nice enough dude tho.

Anyways this sounds like a thing someone sort of mentors you into. Or maybe had a friend that kind of told you want to buy or start with. If I was going to try to do this I would look into IT equipment buying it up from random places. Or taking it for free. Saying I am going to recycle it. When I'll just repackage and buy whatever missing pieces it needs. Then resell it all another reseller. Trying to make connection and networking with other companies to find out who needs what seems like a huge pain in the ass. I feel like it would still be easier just to get a loan , buy a dive bar and let that collect income for me. Instead of essentially learning a new skill and becoming a salesman. But ya 250k for one year is okay, but not great compared to what my family is bringing in now and I work mostly from home tech job. I do want to have independent income that isnt reliant on an employer though. I find that very attractive in what you do.

I heard someone say, first you invest in stocks, make money. Then make a business. Then after all that is done, you can buy a house or go into real estate.

>>52845898
>dont attempt it. you'll only lose money.

Why?

>>52853719
>Please dont waste time replying to people with shitty comments
I needed to do this earlier but didn't expect the thread to run long.
To be honest I know it helps keep it bumped to argue. But point taken.
>sounds like a thing someone sort of mentors you into
It doesn't have to be. But this would make it much easier and if you are willing to be someone's muscle you could probably be introduced to a lot of people.
Being young offers a lot of possibility.

If I were you I'd do a lot of looking and searching and market research. Ecommerce and selling things isn't overall that great except for the freedom it provides.
Hustlers are always hustling. But it doesn't have to actually be that hard.
Just being always alert and interested will get you going.
Never hurts to ask either. MAKE AN OFFER if it's something you think you can flip.

This load. Me 15 years ago I'd have been looking to flip as fast as possible by just parking it in a dry place and looking for someone else to buy it at $30k or $40k depending...
Now I have an operation, more space, so I slow churn it on a longer time span for a much greater margin.

>>52854974
Reiterating the one point.
MAKE AN OFFER.
I actually looked at this load, thought it was too valuable, and almost just passed.
But I sent her a note basically saying "Hey, I know it's a lot of good stuff, but everyone knows stuff is slow and I've barely got room to store it...the best I can see me doing is $20,000 for the entire list.
I was almost shy about such a low ball but that's what I thought I could justify currently given space, cash flow, etc.
She took it and was happy.
And I'm happy.
Make an offer. Worst can happen is the say no.

>look I know you probably want more, but I'm here RIGHT NOW, with X,XXX
This is all it takes sometimes and that's why the two most important things are
1. Do you have cash RIGHT NOW?
2. Can you pick it up RIGHT NOW or HOW SOON?
Price drop precipitously given your answers to these questions.

>>52852971
>intention or goal
Whose intention or goal and has it been perverted.
Point being, when I hear something outlandish, I think...hmmm what set of circumstances would make this true?
Looking at the world this way opens the mind and expands the thinking.
Critical thinking has been used to make "everyone('s) a critic".
I don't waste my time too much criticizing.

I am an old book guy. I collect old dictionaries.
Live time experiment I am doing as I type.
>google definition "criticize"
1. indicate the faults of (someone or something) in a disapproving way
2. form and express a sophisticated judgment of (a literary or artistic work)

I see that 1 is the shit way everyone has been taught to do it and 2 is the way it should be.

Now I will consult my Bolles' 1890 dictionary live time without knowing the entry.
First, they don't number them
>To play the critic; to judge; to animadvert upon as faulty
Second,
>To examine with respect to beauties or faults. To censure

So anyway.

I know this isn’t a lark because you type how boomer from the Midwest would. Good thread. Especially elucidating on the weak mind of the zoomer - they are for sure what you describe as “cannot people”. The one or two in this thread start by whining they don’t have the money, then it’s why aren’t you spoon feeding me. The concept of work in the real world is almost impossible to them. They’d rather find a way to scam on YouTube. Last thing I’ll add is that I went to a top 20 MBA and those kind of educated people don’t have the balls nor the right ego to do things like this. There truly is opportunity everywhere but you have to earn it. I like your attitude.

>>52832314
I admit that I also kekked at this.
>boomer from midwest
You've never boomed like me.
I'm not actually a boomer but learned the entire thing from them. I'm the meme boomer. But it's hard to tell what people mean anymore.
But yes, at the heart of it I think people create their own reality and a lot of the youngsters help to realize "how bad it is."
There is too much wealth and opportunity to be actually poor if you have talent and don't want to be.
A lot of people choose to be and then bitch about it constantly.

Didnt read this. Brass scrap is roughly $1.75 per/lb.
If you really bought 7 tons (what im assuming)
2000lbs(1 ton)*7*1.75=24500 Why not sell for scrap and make a decent $3500 profit for a few days of work. Seems like a better option imo

>>52838898
Where does stuff like this get advertised?

>>52858129
Sitting on a computer doesn't make you a man faggot.
How strong is your grip?
It's funny to see the extrapolation. I honestly just stated my recent year wasn't that good.
YOU CANTs then extrapolate that this is every year.
I made an million dollars in one year doing this in 2013 I believe and my website even this year sold about 1.3 million in goods. The overhead brought this year down to not much profit.
But my inventory is UP UP UP.
>>52860263
Where do you think I have no thought about all that stuff?
Or is that just convenient for a YOU CANT to think?
Pic related is her samples she had out for customers.
It's all packaged from the factory, what I bought, ready for consumer purchase.

Now...the reason she can't move it elsewhere is CASH and SPACE (and in this case weight).
I was within 3 hours drive of her and I had $20,000 and I could take it immediately.
She had the real estate agent in to list the property as I was picking up.
She wanted OUT...NOW.
Me, a truck, and $20k made that happen for her.

Pic related is my tease photo for people that know my business about what I'm bringing in next.
Imagine solid brass, 130,000 pieces. Packaged well. Ready to ship right out of the box.

Also, good morning.

>>52861899
If you are starting out then the only things you see advertised won't be that good as some of the YOU CANTs have posted in here.
I'd start with estate sales.
HIBID is best maybe. That's still small lots stuff.

Example where I make no money but get personal enjoyment (but room to make money for someone).
Find a niche, buy a few things from the same auctioneer, then talk to him personally saying you can be his outlet shit he can't get rid of if need be.
Start talking to guys in the business of liquidation and auction.
Look into becoming and auctioneer and you can actually auction your junk on those sites.
I come from a long line of auctioneers but just recently did this as another avenue for my bigger junk that doesn't ship.
Start small, keep your eyes open for big.

The biggest thing is to BE PREPARED.
If you want to do this you need bare minimum $5,000 cash, a garage (bigger is better), and a truck to haul stuff. A shitty truck and trailer will do, but if you aren't hauling yourself to start there is no way you will make money.

OP is a larping faggot

Anyway, the most simple way to earn some extra cash, you're not going to get rich from it, but it will earn you some extra.

Buy badly damaged cars from the most sold zoomer/chav/rich cunt brand car in your area. Scarp for parts, sell.

BMW M livery, AMG and other asorted normie bullshit sells extra well.

>>52861976

This is at heart the same thing I'm doing.
But I will assume you are not larping.
Clearly a faggot, but why assume a larp when it's clearly a decent idea?
Scared to do more buddy? Get a garage and get 3 cars at once if it's a good idea.

>>52862009
You're not going to sell few thousands coat hangers, nor a few thousands BMW M seats to anyone.

This shit works when you have a small inventory to liqiudate, not a million tiny pieces of garbage taking up space and rotting.

>>52832100
So everything is expired?

>>52862060
I said three bmws.
And I literally know someone who sold probably 100,000 coat hangers to someone.
It was a scrap yard guy, but it still happened. Semi load full of coat hangers.
Guy made $3,000 having cash and a trailer in literally an afternoon by loading them up and moving them across town.
This is why you are prepared with a truck and cash. I think he only paid like $500 for the entire lot he told me. He brags about that one non stop to anyone that will listen. kek

they want to sit at home and click their mouse to 'make it' with some worthless scam coin

>>52832100
Good luck OP, it's not to see actual business shit on this board. I was reading a book by 50 cent the other day where he talks about how he did the same thing for a shoe store that was going out of business, he bought their liquidated inventory and flipped it with his son teach his son entrepreneurship.

Thanks for sharing, hustleanon. I know a little about doing this on the side and have been thinking about giving it all I've got. Your stories have helped me to better understand how to get started.

Are there any types of goods that you always avoid because they aren't worth the time/opportunity cost? Do you recommend forming an LLC now or soon after starting? How do you account for inventory - quickbooks or something else? Do you recommend having at website from the beginning on or grow into that later? Thanks!

I believe you, OP. I'm also grateful you made this thread.
the obvious question regarding your hustle is: how do you find this stuff? word of mouth? here in my country (judging by some googling) there seem to be companies that act as middlemen for big companies and do auctions. shit is fucking expensive most of the time, so it's not even worth it, and I bet there are lots of people doing what you do here in my small country.. is it still possible to do anything?

>>52866784
I don't have much time and the thread will end so real quick...

I would use Ebay to start because even I use it and you just price in the fees and then your stuff shows on a big website. That's for small stuff.
Only do a website if you get bulk quantity of the same item. List it once, sell it a lot of times.
Don't keep any books until you are making money.
Be ready to sit on something for awhile.
If you are itchy to get rid of something, then YOU become the guy selling it too cheap.
I don't have to sell anything to anyone because I have space and I'm not underwater. So that keeps my price floor up.
Don't get into the exact situation you are trying to take advantage of.

Based. Too bad we can't be real world frens.

Cheers everyone. Maybe I'll make another some time.
Already sold some of the stuff to two different people.
Old customers of hers sent over to us.

or just fucking buy a bot that buys at X and resells at Y for Z profit.

bonus : it's free if you know how to code

all you need to do is not be retarded and put on some effort into studying what you're going to trade

a reddit/greetext text to speech tiktok accounts make more than what than fag OP does.

lots of ways to make money while being lazy in clown world, you just have to commit.

this, he bought it from a company set up better than he was to sell it, and even they couldn't.

One might say he was quite liquordated

>>52873656
You don't know my company or hers.

Her problem was she didn't do the hustle.
She imported a lot of a higher dollar shit at full cost without a way to sell it and with costs too high.
St. Charles real estate ain't cheap.
Me, while I admit to being over PPE'd, am still in the middle of nowhere and my costs are for sure a a fraction of hers even though I'm 10x as big.

I can imagine a situation in which some dumbass boomer sells a lot of stuff for cheap. I imagine it like this:
>boomer who has too much money in their pockets buys accumulates a shitton of stuff
>has a small store and doesn't know how to advertise or sell online so has a tiny reach of local and "word of mouth" customers
>goes broke or dies after years of wasting time and money
>boomer or his relatives sell the whole thing for cheap

This is true, shipping containers are great. Be sure to buy a high cube container though, they are 9 feet tall instead of 8 feet and generally only cost $100 or so more than a normal container so there is no reason not to go high cube.

>5k USD is massive paper stack
If you live in the US and don't have 5k at your disposal, you're a fucking retard.

>>52836288
>SCALE DOES NOT MATTER. Even literal bums buy a pack of cigarettes and sell them out as singles to even bigger bums. You gotta save up $7 first though.

So true. The real trick is to save up $80 though and buy a bag of tobacco and some rolling papers, roll 200 ciggies, and then hang out at the bus station chillin all day selling them to bums for $2 each.

>>52839921
>Stop being poor! you just need 20k and a warehouse!
Is 20k hard to save up for?

>>52875455
Why would I want 5k that isn't already invested? Emergency funds are a meme.

>>52861974
why scalp parts instead of fix and resell?

>>52872818
do you have a special deal with Uhaul to get the truck for $300

when I rented a Uhaul last month it was like 1100 without insurance
also why do you own a warehouse but rent the truck, why not just buy a cheap truck?

>>52839467
volume is fixed in ships - a fucking container (there are a few sizes), you retard
