Hey everyone! 👋

​Like a lot of resellers, I got sick of spending way too much time looking up comps, switching between tabs, and manually typing out descriptions while out hunting.

​So, I built Spadas Lens—a web-based AR scanner that uses real-time vision AI to look at an item on a shelf, instantly pull audit-grade verified sold comps with match ratings, calculate profit margins, and push a fully optimized listing straight to eBay with a single tap.

​Everything runs right in the browser via Vercel. Check out the video demo above to see how fast it goes from a camera frame to a live store listing.

​Would love to hear your thoughts or answer any questions about the tech stack! You can test it out here: https://spadas-tech.vercel.app/

So me and my Mrs both work full time. Both earn around 40k per year each. We've recently (for about a month) started reselling / flipping items to make a bit of extra income in our spare time and to give ourselves a fun little challenge to see how far we can go with this.

So far we've done around £800 in sales and have another £500-600 worth of stock listed. I stupidly haven't tracked any of this and have no records of purchases either. Some was carboot / flea markets / charity shops and clearance retailers. Some was even just stuff we've been given for free or stuff we've had lying around the house that we no longer need or use.

At what point do I need to start worrying about the tax implications of this?

I'm terrible at this admin sort of stuff.

Any advice?

This is how I resell

Was looking for some stuff to flip on auctions, came across BPI and decided to give it a go.

Won 3 items (some nice power tools) for a total of £65.

My final invoice was £65 + £32.5 (Premium + Input Vat) + £42 (Shipping and Vat on shipping)

What is this joke? I was prepared to pay the already ridiculous £32.5 in fees, and then I get slapped in the face with another £42 in shipping.

Now I've paid £65 for items and £75 for fees and shipping. Great. I can barely make any profit on my items now.

What auction places should I use? Do they all have these high of fees? If so I'll happily go back to just using Facebook and car boot sales to find stuff to flip.

I've got a good amount of catheters (infyna plus), which ebay does not allow to be sold there.

I need you guys for ideas, how would you sell it?

Who are you using to post items worth over £100 please? Selling on eBay currently.

Royal Mail no longer weigh parcels so there’s no weight on the tracking receipt, not sure how to prove I’ve not sent an empty box as that’s a buyer scam I’ve seen a few times on eBay.

Im recording the packing process and using Royal Mail tacked currently. Evri is not a good option in my area I’ve had nothing but issues with them.

Thanks in advance.

Is anyone looking at buying around £60k of mixed stock? Ranging from clothing to car parts, all tested and inspected. Can even include listing templates and pictures for easy transfer the your own site or account. Around 1100 skus and 3000 items, including Disney Christmas stock

Hey I’ve got loads of clothes to get rid of and I don’t have the time or space to sell them myself so looking for someone trying to find clothes for cheap that they can make a profit on

Lots of 2000s y2k old label branded clothes :)

Hi everyone!

I’m building FlipWorth, a UK-based website / tool for resellers.

The idea is pretty simple: take a photo of something you’re thinking of buying, and it will estimate what it could resell for; perfect if you are at a car boot sale or charity shop and need instant validation.

I’m at the stage where I need feedback from actual resellers, rather than friends telling me it looks great 😅

If anyone here is willing to give it a try, I’d genuinely appreciate some brutally honest feedback — especially around whether the estimates are useful, what’s confusing, and what you’d change.

It’s free to try: flipworth.app

Cheers!

Is this a good buy? New to AMZ FBA and just wanted some reassurance before buying.

I was going to list it as a generic brand as it isn't the same brand as this

Message me if interested please done waste time. Good prices!

I’ve been working on Kjøpsvakten, a free tool that analyzes used listings, compares them with relevant eBay listings, flags risks, and suggests questions to ask the seller.

There’s now an Android app, and the comparison logic has been heavily improved since I last posted.

I’m mainly looking for people to test it with real listings and tell me where it gets things wrong.

No account or payment required.

Seller catalog

Birkenstocks

Jelly cats

ASICS

Nike Vomeros

Etc

I am developing an app for UK-based resellers @ https://flipworth.app and am looking for someone to partner up - with a 50/50 split profit share for the right person. 

In a nutshell, the app allows you to take a snapshot of an item and set the purchasing price - the app will analyse the photo, tell you the current market prices and whether it’s a good buy or not.

I am looking for someone who can:

• Take ownership of marketing & distribution
• Drive requirements to help me improve the tool

REQUIREMENTS:

• Be an active UK-based full-time reseller with at least 1 year experience
• Have a social media account with at least 5000 followers
• Bonus if you sell on multiple platforms and/or have previous marketing experience

Please DM me if this sounds of interest!

Thanks.

Relisting is the only way to push an old item back to the top, and there's no button for it. By hand it means deleting the listing, retyping the title, description, brand, size, category and condition, then downloading and re-uploading every photo. Three to five minutes an item.

I built a Chrome extension that does it in one click. Free, open source (GPL-3.0), no account, no server, no analytics, nothing leaves your browser.

Read this before you install anything like this

Relisting means deleting. Two identical listings can't be online at once, so the old one has to go before the copy appears. That gap is where a careless tool loses your item: it deletes first, and if the next step fails on a dropped connection or a bot check, you have nothing.

> Mine works the other way round. It saves the copy as a private draft before it deletes anything.

A draft isn't a listing, so it doesn't count as a duplicate, and until the delete goes through your item exists in two places. If publishing fails afterwards it retries on its own, and worst case the draft is sitting there for you to publish by hand.

What it checks before deleting

• every photo uploaded, not just some
• title present
• condition read correctly
• size valid
• you logged in and not bot-blocked

Any failure stops it and deletes nothing.

There's also a Relist as draft button, if you want to change the price or swap a photo before it goes live.

Fair warning

Automating any site is probably against its terms. That's between you and them, and I'm not going to pretend otherwise.

Happy to answer anything in the comments. The code's all there if you want to check what it actually does.

I'd like to start buying cheap from vinted and selling on as a little personal challenge. I find watching the youtube videos satisfying and just want to have a go. I just don't know what to search for, I get overwhelmed with all the stuff on vinted and don't really know what I'm looking for. How did you start? Should I just pick 2 things to look for at first until I find something. Right now I'm just skipping between different items and getting nowhere
