Where to buy return pallets in the UK

Publish date: 2024-04-25

A GREAT way of saving money is to buy items that have already been sent back.

This is where you can buy a return pallet in the UK.

What is a return pallet?

Return pallets are pallets of returned goods that are sold at hugely discounted prices by the pallet load.

You can make a lot of money by refurbishing and reselling the used merchandise online, but you don't often get to see it first.

Sites selling return pallets are typically organised by category, lot size, brands, retailers and location.

However, from the auction description, you have no idea what’s inside those brown boxes - which does make it more fun and exciting.

Amazon Liquidation Auctions is the official b2b marketplace where you can buy overstock merchandise directly from Amazon.

You first have to register with B-Stock and be approved to bid on an auction.

The application is completely free and there is no fee for being an approved buyer.

Amazon Liquidation Auctions is only accepting applications from the US and you must have a valid reseller certificate to be eligible.

In the UK, you can register on the Amazon EU Liquidation Auctions marketplace separately.

As well as major retailers, many websites sell return pallets in bulk.

The more return pallets you are willing to buy, the cheaper the cost of the pallet in most cases.

While you’re unlikely to know exactly what is inside, the bundle will usually carry an “estimated retail value”.

If they are savvy, buyers can make a lot of money by refurbishing and reselling the used merch online.

At the very least, you could recoup the cost of the pallet itself.

But if the pallet has really good items, you could be able to flip them for 100% to 200% more than what you originally paid for.
