$200 Facebook Marketplace Flip Sold for $1,200 on eBay
Join 3200+ resellers in our $5 Reseller Mastermind Community and learn how to flip auction and liquidation goods for profit here: https://www.shannonjean.info/5MM 30-day FREE Trial of THE RESELLER MASTERMIND PRO: https://startlivenow.com/ Check out my Free Auction Starter Guide at https://www.shannonjean.com/auctions and Free Newsletter at https://shannon-jean.kit.com/ In this episode, I sit down with Hunter Draper to break down a simple but powerful reselling strategy: finding undervalued products on Facebook Marketplace and flipping them for more on eBay. Hunter caught my attention after one of his posts on X went viral with 1.7 million views. His approach is simple: find products that people don't want to deal with, research what they're actually selling for on eBay, and look for the gap between the local price and the online resale value.We go deep into how he finds these opportunities, what products he's looking for, and why some of the best flips are often the big, heavy, awkward items that most resellers don't want to touch. One of the biggest lessons from this conversation is that you don't necessarily need to find a secret product or complicated business model. You need to learn how to research. A product that looks like junk to one person can be a valuable opportunity to someone who understands the market. Hunter specializes in finding products that are too large, too heavy, too obscure, or too inconvenient for the average reseller and then figuring out how to move them profitably. We also talk about the importance of starting small, taking action, and learning as you go. You don't need to begin by flipping $10,000 appliances. Start with something you understand, research the market, make a small deal, and prove that the model works. And as Hunter puts it, the work reveals itself as you do it.If you're interested in reselling on eBay, Facebook Marketplace flipping, retail arbitrage, online arbitrage, liquidation, or finding profitable items to flip, there's a lot to take away from this conversation. Hunter is actively building his reselling business and sharing what he's learning publicly on X. Follow him, check out his deals, and send him a message with your questions. https://x.com/hunterresell If you enjoyed this episode, subscribe to the channel and let me know your biggest takeaway in the comments.

$48K Golf Simulator for $460?! INSANE Liquidation Auction Deals
Join 3200+ resellers in our $5 Reseller Mastermind Community and learn how to flip auction and liquidation goods for profit here: https://www.shannonjean.info/5MM (https://www.shannonjean.info/5MM) 30-day FREE Trial of THE RESELLER MASTERMIND PRO: startlivenow.com (http://startlivenow.com) Join the Reseller Rocket Cohort 2 Waitlist! (https://www.google.com/search?q=https%3A%2F%2Fshannonjean.com%2Fprograms)shannonjean.com/programs (https://www.google.com/search?q=https%3A%2F%2Fshannonjean.com%2Fprograms) Check out my Free Auction Starter Guide at https://www.shannonjean.com/auctions (https://www.shannonjean.com/auctions) and Free Newsletter at https://shannon-jean.kit.com/ (https://shannon-jean.kit.com/) In this episode, I’m taking you through another auction deep dive and breaking down some incredible liquidation deals across Costco, Target, Ace Hardware, B-Stock, GSA Auctions, and GovDeals. From a $48,000 golf simulator that sold for just $460 to truckloads of toys, seasonal inventory, furniture, pressure washers, collectibles, vehicles, and even a helicopter simulator, these auctions show just how many opportunities are out there for resellers who know how to research the numbers. I’ll show you how I evaluate these deals, why freight and location can make or break a liquidation deal, how to calculate your landed cost, and why seasonal arbitrage can create huge opportunities for resellers. In this auction deep dive, I cover: How a $48,000 Full Swing golf simulator sold for just $460 Why poor auction photos can create opportunities for experienced buyers How seasonal liquidation inventory can be bought early and sold when demand returns A Costco deal with Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas inventory Why buying seasonal products after the season can create seasonal arbitrage A truckload of toys with over $85,000 in stated retail value How buying a full truckload can dramatically reduce your per-pallet freight cost Why you need to calculate your landed cost, not just the auction price How I use AI tools and product research to evaluate unfamiliar inventory GSA Auctions deals including government vehicles, boats, equipment, and unusual assets GovDeals opportunities including Polaris Rangers and other government surplus Why location, freight, product demand, and resale value all matter when buying liquidation inventory One of the biggest lessons in this deep dive is that the auction price is only part of the deal. You have to understand freight, your location, your selling channel, the condition of the merchandise, and what you can realistically sell the inventory for. And remember: liquidation is a simple business, but it's not easy. That's why I built the Reseller Mastermind—to give resellers a community where they can learn, share deals, get help with suppliers and categories, and avoid expensive mistakes.

Why Returns Beat Closeouts in the Reselling Business
Join 3200+ resellers in our $5 Reseller Mastermind Community and learn how to flip auction and liquidation goods for profit here: https://www.shannonjean.info/5MM (https://www.shannonjean.info/5MM) 30-day FREE Trial of THE RESELLER MASTERMIND PRO: https://startlivenow.com (http://startlivenow.com) Join the Reseller Rocket Cohort 2 Waitlist!

Jacques and I break down why customer returns can sometimes be more valuable than closeouts, how to evaluate suppliers, and why making money in liquidation is about understanding the business—not just buying inventory at a low price. If you've ever looked at a manifest and assumed the retail price tells the whole story, this conversation will change the way you evaluate deals. You'll discover: Why customer returns can be more valuable than closeouts, even with damage and uncertainty How Via Trading handles grading, sorting, and high-volume inventory What red flags to watch for when buying from brokers and online suppliers Why MSRP and manifests don't always tell the full story How to think about aging inventory and true recovery value How damaged goods can still create profitable opportunities How Whatnot, TikTok, eBay, Facebook Marketplace, and bin stores change how liquidation inventory can be sold How to choose inventory based on your actual sales channels and customer base Jacques also shares how Via Trading works with everyone from side hustlers buying a single pallet to wholesalers moving truckloads, along with the customer service philosophy that keeps buyers coming back. Whether you're just starting out or you're ready to scale into truckloads and multiple sales channels, you'll walk away with a better understanding of how to buy smarter, evaluate risk, and protect your margins. Jacques Stambouli is the founder and CEO of Via Trading, a major re-commerce and liquidation company specializing in customer returns and surplus inventory. I'm Shannon Jean, a longtime reseller and community builder helping thousands of resellers become more strategic about liquidation, auctions, re-commerce, and building profitable businesses.
