Sneaker Resale Shop
Buy limited sneakers low and resell them online in one of the most crowded markets there is: a giant resale app, thousands of other resellers and a consignment store downtown. Buy smart, price fast, build trust.
You have a few thousand dollars, a shelf of boxes and a camera. The resale app takes a cut of every sale and owns most of the buyers; other resellers undercut you by five dollars within the hour; the consignment store downtown has the walk-in crowd. Margins are thin and stock ties up cash. The decisions: how much to pay for inventory, how to price against the app's last sale, whether to spend on authentication and fast shipping to earn trust, how many people you need to source, photograph and pack, and which buyers — collectors, casual buyers or other shops — are worth chasing. It teaches inventory, gross margin and trust in a crowded marketplace, where the difference between a profit and a loss is what you paid for the pair.
