I've been reselling for a while now after getting a job and my first paycheck. So far I've made around 5k in just profit. I've re invested all of it back into products

In order for you to be successful and to start out, you need a job. Doesn't matter what it is or if you enjoy it just do it for a few weeks until you've made enough to start a little side business

You going to want to target older folk, they're the only ones who can actually afford shit anyway. Specifically, you want to stick with bags. Women are always looking to treat themselves and husbands are always looking to impress. Specifically LV, every middle aged white woman wants one.

Get good quality stuff and don't buy suppliers off tiktokers 😂 or go on spreadsheets. Go on reddit threads for good suppliers. Do some research before sending your money halfway across the world (DM for my supplier 😂) . Make sure you have a PayPal setup as that's what most suppliers take. Keep in mind your getting this stuff from china, they live in different time zones. Be patient. Also be patient in the fact that packages from there take a very long time to come in, Shit can take like 2-3 weeks to get here.

For marketing and advertising, stick to FB marketplace. Selling online is a pain especially since most platforms will give customers refunds without question. Only take cash.

To list on FB marketplace without getting taken down list as
- Used (Like new)
- be vague in the title, (ex. Instead of Louis Vuitton say LV)
- Take pictures of the product, not the box
- list it at a reasonable price for the item (ex. 3400 dollar bag list for 1800) and then once the listing is approved lower the price down to 0 (this way people will send you more messages)

Invest in a receipt printer, it's the easiest way to get more sales. Remember, always sell as real 😂

make up a backstory to why your selling. People are going to be curious as to why your selling a 5000 dollar bag for 500 dollars (ps. Don't overprice, 2.5x what your bought it for at most), I like to say that my wife is trying to get rid of some the stuff her ex husband gave her. Make up some sort of sob story. tell them that your "nephew" or "Son" (you) is going to meet up with them if you dont look 35+.

If you have any questions or want some suppliers feel free to ask, I'm not gonna gatekeep or keep info behind pay walls 😂, we all in this together folks 🥺😅

thats decent, I personally dropship on depop which is similar "business" model to traditional reselling, I would say, consistency and the effort you put in is one of the deciding factors on if you make money or not

Yeah no, bags. Specifically I've noticed that OnTheGo Lv totes are selling very well. Neverfulls also sell well. Anything lv really. I've got about 10 bags coming in soon

Not only is it oversaturated, but those things usually appeal to a younger audience, an audience with little to no money or job. Also, replicating apple technology for 6 bucks is impossible 😂. Anything in the technology category usually sucks

op, what's your supplier ? If your ok w/ giving it
 
i live in a shitty country named romania and i cant really use fb marketplace for selling since nobody here is paying more than 100 euro for something clothing related, instead i buy fakes, post them on vinted, most people know they are buying fakes and they buy

Lowkirkenuially airpod Pro reps are insane, at least from my supplier.

If I'm being completely honest, I learned to do this on my own for the most part. This all started with my rep obsession 😂. I recommend just larping on forums like r/RepladiesDesigner or on r/OGRepladies. OGRepladies has the most information and has the least amount of people gatekeeping. Never buy off shitty sites like DhGate. I've had 1 good experience on there out of 20. Make sure you have Whatsapp, 90% of agents use it. They used to have a trusted sellers list but took it down recently 😔
