collective buying argosclearance A grade

greenbudha · 27-10-2009, 11:10 AM

Would there be any interest in setting up a collective to buy argos clearance A grade stock to break down into smaller lots for booters/market traders.

I have the space to store in the east midlands and the cash to buy but have no outlet to sell

any thoughts anyone?

I hope this one won't

Their is a company called returnlogistics they sell Argos raw returns my the pallet load mainly Argos own brand items

yeah don't buy the raw returns you will just end up with a warehouse full of crap!! i'd say sell them on ebay as wholesale lots just make sure you add enough on to your price for the fees

Reading through the OP again it I want to know why he/she thinks they have no outlet to sell?

eBay/Amazon are open to anyone etc.

What ever happened for the plans to group buy on here. Has this been done before and not worked?

Thanks for the replies everyone

I have decided to go ahead and set up by myself as a wholesaler. To that end having completed my business plan I have now purchased my first trailerload of returns and will be open for business in the next couple of weeks or so.

I will keep you all posted on my progress

Will you be buying an advertising membership and selling on here?
