March: Reseller Trends

Mar 13, 2017

Need tickets to the big concert coming to town? Stubhub. Need to get rid of that cappuccino machine from 1997? eBay. Want to get the latest handbag but can’t afford a new one? Rebagg.

Some of the best deals you can get – and one of the greatest ways to make some money yourself – are through online resellers.

Here is are some of the hottest sites and trends for 2017:

Resellers do Mainstreet, USA:
Lead reseller
overstock.com  started as an online liquidator – and now sells everything from farmer’s goods to cars. One of their latest ventures is their Main Street Revolution section where you can purchase from small businesses. According to CEO Patrick Byrne,

“The ‘Main Street Revolution’ is a partnership between Overstock.com and small and minority-owned business owners across the United States. This initiative creates a national marketing and distribution channel for producers of consumer products by providing the opportunity to sell their products on Overstock.com…”

Find everything you need and support small business. From crafts and hobbies to art to kitchens and baths and the latest in fashion

Resellers Make it Easy to Sell Your Stuff:
We all know the giant in this space – eBay, the company that gave us online reselling and helped us clean out our closets.  Check out their eBay Trending page to see what’s hot to buy and sell, like the Amazon Firestick and all things Disney Princess Moana.

Two entrepreneurs who have found a new way to disrupt the reseller marketplace, are startups Rebagg and Trendlee.

Rebagg  is a reseller marketplace for designer handbags. Bags are purchased from sellers, then sold to consumers on the website Trendlee.com. Instead of a user listing his or her item for sale, Rebagg provides a quote for the bag, then pays the user within a few days of the offer being accepted. The company turns around and sells the item on Trendlee.com. The seller is paid faster making it easier. The company even offers free pickup in NYC.
 

Another site that makes it easier to sell your stuff is Offer Up, which allows sellers to simply take a photo and name the price of the item they are selling. The site is positioned as the easy way to buy and sell locally. The site makes it easy for anyone to get rid of – and pick up – a whole laundry list of items at great prices, and provides the location and mileage it takes to pick up your item.

Resellers Have a Passion for Vintage:
We all know Etsy is great for original art and handmade clothing, jewelry, home décor, furniture and more. But did you know Etsy’s marketplace includes vintage items and craft supplies?  Vintage records, vintage crochet patterns, and vintage sunglasses are all making a comeback. And don’t forget the Vintage Fashion on eBay when the 50’s, 60’s, 70’s or 80’s mood strikes…

Resellers Offer Great Deals:
Resellers like Zulily.com and Wayfair.com offer name brand items for a great deal less. Zulily works with thousands of brands to offer fabulous items at a great value. Their signature offering is a daily deal at 70% off  – like Vera Bradley bags and kids’ top fashion brands like Hanna Anderson, Croc and Mini Boden.

With one of the world’s largest online selections of furniture, home furnishings, décor and goods, including more than seven million products from over 7,000 suppliers, Wayfair helps people find the perfect product at the right price. Their sister brands include sites like Joss and Main and Birch Lane to name a few, and showcase great brands and deals up to 70% off.

Resellers Have the Best Shoes:
Where to go for the best in sneakers, boots and shoes galore? Resellers like Zappos.com and 6PM offer the best brands at significantly discounted prices. The secret? Zappos sends their late season or stuff they no longer want to carry to 6PM – giving you great deals (but not free shipping). Get Skechers at 70% off retail from 6PM, or the best new spring sandals from Zappos. Either way – you will find what your feet need – any season, any style.
