https://arch-usa.com/how-the-supply-chain-contributed-to-800k-in-nike-product-being-stolen/ I recently reported on why the Supply Chain contributed to the theft of over 800,000 thousand dollars in Nike product.

I followed that discussion with information on the Railroad…

Last month I wrote a post on how resale was slowing down on both StockX and eBay.

The…
Die exklusive Collab von Hikmet Sugoer und eBay Source: SONRA Sonra (a brand owned by Hikmet Sugoer) doesn’t make enough shoes to counter the losses eBay has encountered due to the growth of StockX, GOAT and Grailed. However, eBay has the customer base to begin recapturing revenue via a private label strategy. Last year in…
One of the primary methods of increasing the visibility of a listing on eBay is displaying a product with free shipping. On StockX the seller doesn’t pay shipping, my prediction is this will change in the very near future. Businesses, in response to Amazon’s long-standing policies which have shaped all of e-commerce, all offer some…
StockX and GOAT are platforms built to avoid issues requiring insurance by sellers. This is a benefit of selling on those sites. The seller and buyer remain anonymous throughout the transaction, placing the burden upon StockX and GOAT to maintain a friction free exchange. While this appears to be a benefit, the amount of money…

Last month in September I continued with my reopening of my Amazon Seller Central Marketplace account. By the end of October, I was shutting it down again. Although the numbers above show that I made $20,255.49 on 193 pairs shipped, this doesn’t tell the entire tale of Amazon as a marketplace. I continued using eBay…

Let’s revisit July to get a better grasp on how August shaped up. July had a lot of Dunks. August, I didn’t win hardly any raffles so the number of Air Jordan 1 and Dunks decreased. Here is what I wrote for July: The Average Resale Price in July on StockX was $129.68. This number…
I had 469 transactions in July 2021. That’s a jump back towards normal and doesn’t account for the number of wholesale transactions. I sold approximately 800 pair of shoes in wholesale. These shoes go on to be sold in retail outlets and on third party digital outlets. The wholesale is extremely limited in style, and…

This is the report for May 2021. I made a lot of adjustments in May. Access to my primary stream of shoes shifted. Stores still weren’t getting a lot of releases on time, but this doesn’t matter because with discounts being removed by stores like Foot Locker, and new restrictions being reinforced on buying limits,…
I’ve been using StockX since 2017. From 2017 to today my average sold price has decreased as more sellers find out about the platform. That’s only natural and it happens on every site. On Amazon, from October of 2011 to December of 2012, I generated almost $600,000 dollars. That number decreased as Amazon removed the…

Recently WearTesters launched a subscription program, https://weartesters.com/join/, and I questioned why a Complex site would need to do this.
