It’s time for me to upgrade from the bathroom scales.
Prepping yourself? Why? Curious
One of these is what you need:
Strange question. I would imagine although I have no evidence to this that most lower-volume FBA sellers prep themselves.
It’s cheaper and more reliable. But this doesn’t suit everyone.
Not everyone on Amazon does OA/RA you know.
I see most FBA online arbitrage sellers using prep centers as opposed to preparing inventory at home. This business model is the closest to dropshipping.
They usually don’t have a steady place where they could store or process large parcels. They will order pallets of low-profit inventory from suppliers on a daily basis (often while using a VA to arrange these re-stocks depending on inventory numbers) and then have a prep-centre deal with it.
Personally, I am sending quite low numbers of FBA inventory (a shipment once in every 2 weeks), meaning that I can prep them myself. But others don’t have this amount of time, especially if doing online arbitrage.
