Here's another truckload from the liquidation company that we follow. We don't have any association with them, and we don't get any money for this, but we just look at these once in a while to see what opportunities are available. This truckload supposedly has a hundred thousand dollars in retail, mostly consisting of tools and equipment like generators, Milwaukee tools, and lawn mowers. The cost for this one is $24,000, and it has a manifest that we'll take a look at. The manifest shows the retail price, wholesale price, and the brand of the items.

In the first section, we see a lot of North Star items, including Milwaukee fuel switch packs. This is an $800 item, and the wholesale price is $600. There are also Briggs and Stratton engines, another Milwaukee fuel high torque impact wrench, which is another expensive item at $800, and a Honda walk-behind lawn mower, which is a high-value package. These are all brand name tools. It also looks like there is a pallet jack, which is a $2,000 item.

The total retail value of these items is $100,000, with a wholesale value of $60,000, and they're asking for $24,000. The items are FOB (Free On Board) from South Carolina, so that's something to keep in mind. But if you're a distributor, retailer, or have a wholesale shop where you can resell these items, or even sell them online on platforms like eBay or Facebook Marketplace, these items are all saleable. They are brand-name merchandise. Some of these packages may have off-brand, Chinese-made items, but this one consists of brand-name merchandise.

I'm not sure how long this one will last, but as of right now, it's still available. Keep an eye on this liquidation company, as they occasionally offer packages like this, and sometimes they include a lot of brand-name merchandise. For shrewd resellers, you can put this package together, and even if you sell half of it at wholesale prices, you will make back your investment, and the rest is all profit. Let us know what you think, and if you've purchased these types of truckloads before and had success with them, let us know how it worked out for you.
