Here is what we need to know:

We make selling your surplus or unused inventory easy, whether you’re listing individual items or providing detailed spreadsheets with thousands of line items. Follow these guidelines to help your inventory attract the right buyers quickly and efficiently.

1. Provide Your Inventory in Digital Format

To streamline the process, we require inventory details in a digital format, such as Excel or a similar file type. This is especially important for listings with multiple items, as it allows buyers to place offers easily.

  • Why Digital? Buyers need to view each line item and provide their offer directly within the file for a smooth transaction.
  • Pro Tip: Include clear item descriptions, quantities, part numbers, and any relevant specifications to make your listing more attractive.

2. Specify the FOB Location

Knowing the location of your inventory is crucial for estimating shipping costs, which are paid by the customer.

  • FOB (Free On Board): Indicate where the inventory is currently located (e.g., city, state, or province).
  • Why It Matters: Accurate location details help potential buyers make informed decisions and avoid surprises when calculating shipping expenses.

3. Share Pricing Details

Let buyers know what you’re looking for:

  • Set a Price: If you have a fixed selling price, include it.
  • Accepting Offers: For items accepting offers, provide a benchmark price such as the standard replacement cost or manufacturer’s cost. This gives buyers a reference point and ensures offers are fair and realistic.
  • Why It Helps: Transparency about pricing improves trust and speeds up negotiations.

4. Include Photos

A picture is worth a thousand words! Whether you use stock images or actual photos of your inventory, visuals make a significant difference in attracting buyers.

  • What to Include:
    • Clear images showing the product condition, labels, and key features.
    • If listing multiple items, consider adding a photo column in your spreadsheet to link images for each line item.
  • Why It’s Important: Photos help buyers confirm that the product matches their needs and reduce questions or doubts about the item.

5. Be Prepared for Cross-Border Transactions

If you’re selling inventory to buyers across borders, be ready to provide additional details:

  • COO (Country of Origin): Indicate where the item was manufactured.
  • HTS (Harmonized Tariff Schedule) Codes: These codes are essential for customs clearance and vary by item.
  • Why This Matters: Ensuring customs compliance can prevent delays and additional costs during cross-border shipments.

6. Additional Tips for a Successful Sale

  • Stay Organized: Provide clear and concise information in your listings to make the buying process simple.
  • Be Responsive: Answer questions from potential buyers quickly to keep interest high.
  • Leverage Our Platform: Upload your inventory, and we’ll help connect you with interested buyers efficiently.
