What Is Online Arbitrage (OA)
How It Works On Amazon In
2022
What is Online
AThreb Ointlrinaeg Aerb?itrage refers to product re-selling. Buy products
from one online marketplace at cheap price and sell it online on
another marketplace at high profit.
Suppose, I bought an item on a retail store like Walmart, Home
depot or eBay for $20. The same product is getting sold on
Amazon at $50. I will list the product on Amazon at $50. What i am
making is profit.
You can resell it on your own store or Amazon. Online arbitrage
works effectively on Amazon. You will find an existing product
listing to sell on Amazon. Buy the stock and start selling on the
existing Amazon listing.
Is Online Arbitrage legal on
Yes, you can do onAlinme aarbziotrang?e on Amazon. Follow
Amazon guidelines and run risk free arbitrage
business.
What Should I do Merchant Fulfilled
or Amazon Fulfilled?
To run and drive results through online arbitrage, I will recommend
you Fulfilled by Amazon model. Send your inventory to Amazon
and do hassle free online business. They will pack the orders and
process them to the customers.
Also, FBA sellers have high chances of winning the buy box. The
buy box is “Buy Now” button on Amazon.
You will find many sellers selling the same product on a single
listing. As a new seller it is difficult to win buy box on the listing.
With FBA and price down, you can win the buy box.
How to Find Products and Source Them
for Amazon OA?
Online Arbitrage as explained is a process of re-selling a product
on Amazon. So, you will start your product research from
Amazon. Find best selling items on Amazon with following criteria:
• Lightweight (0-5 pounds)
• small or standard box dimension
• BSR under 100000 for main product category
• Number of sellers under 5 or less
• Good profit margin up to (at least $5/unit)
• Average ratings 3.5 or more
Check whether you can sell the product on Amazon or not. Login
to the seller central account and check it. Sort out what items are
allowed to list on Amazon from your list.
The next step is product sourcing. You have mad a list of good
products. Now, use product price comparison sites like Google
shopping, Bizrate etc. Find best deals for the same product on
Wayfair, Target, or other retail stores. This way you can grab a
good deal and stock the products at best prices.
Another way of sourcing product is stock clearance or liquidation
sites. Search the product on the such sites and find are they listed
for sale. Here you can save even more than large retail stores as
supplier wants to clear the inventory asap. You can save up to
80% on the product M.R.P.
Automatic
Method
The alternative to the manual product research and sourcing are
arbitrage tools. Tactical Arbitrage and Source mogul are best to
add in the Arsenal. It searches the products on hundreds of
retail websites online. You will get list of the same product on
different sites. This way you can purchase it at lowest possible
price online.
