Resellers buy trending products and sell them on for a profit. With a spike in popular demand for limited edition streetwear from brands such as Supreme and Yeezy, existing resellers are seeing returns upwards of 10 times their initial investment.
Limited edition items are the most profitable products to resell. As a result, the resale market is highly competitive. To maximise your success, learn as much as you can from veteran resellers. Follow social media accounts such as @flipping_supreme and @hustle_the_hype on Instagram, who provide resell predictions on popular releases.
Limited edition products are known to sell out in seconds, meaning you’ll need to hone your checkout speed. Some sites allow you to sign in beforehand and save your card details, which speeds up the process. Many resellers use free apps such as Fillr to reduce their checkout times, which autofill your details for you.
Once you’ve got your hands on hot, limited products, you can resell on mainstream platforms such as Depop. To achieve better prices, consider selling through more exclusive platforms such as StockX, Grailed and Stadium Goods which feature higher-end, hyped and curated collections.
