Closeout Dealers

Via Trading has just received loads of new with tag clothing including women's clothing, men's clothing, junior clothing, dresses, suits, intimates and more. Purchase one very targeted load or several loads to create a great mix of branded goods for your resale channel. All of these goods are from department stores with well-known labels and all goods are new with tags. There may be a few returns in each lot, but by far most of the goods are clean shelf pulls.

Tech Liquidators is a closeout auction site run by Best Buy where they sell a lot of overstock from Best Buy Stores.

The Closeout Store is another closeout dealer that is used to working with small buyers.

All time Trading is a closeout distributor. Most of their items are cheap dollar store stuff that isn’t suitable for eBay. However you could make up small wholesale lots of the lower cost items and sell them that way. And if you look there are some higher priced items on the site as well.

I have mentioned Trademark Commerce before, but I keep getting requests for reliable drop shippers and I often refer people to them. Unlike many of the large general dropshippers, Trademark Commerce actually has the actual products in stock in their warehouse. They offer a web site setup deal but I wouldn’t waste my time with that. But they are a good source for eBay or Amazon sellers.

The Liquidation and surplus market is starting to heat up. Businesses are under great pressure to reduce inventories and there are going to be some great deals in the months ahead. However this market has it's quirks and dangers. As long as you know what you are doing it can be very profitable.  Here are two articles about sourcing the liquidation market that you should read before diving in:
