Although many people admit to hiring a professional to help with home improvements, many people in the UK still rely on a ‘do it yourself’ attitude. Therefore DIY equipment is worth investing in if you have a wholesale buying business.
As we endure this prolonged period of economic lethargy new avenues appear and certain areas still provide opportunity for those that are willing to search for it. Over the past year or so one of these areas to experience more activity than normal is that of the liquidation and clearance sector.
With increasing amounts of businesses and retail chains dissolving or clearing their stock over the past few years there has been an abundance of very keenly priced liquidation merchandise available for the savvy trader to profit from. Although there has been an increase in all types of products being available from this type of trader there has still been, even on competitive auction sites such as eBay, very healthy mark-ups of over 300% to be made on re-sale. The problem in many cases, has not been the profit margin, but finding a reliable liquidator to source from.
