| Being an eBay Powerseller can make you a ton of | | | | if one of the hot labels suddenly had an influx of last |
| money fast, but it can also bring with it the continual | | | | seasons lines hit the off-price market, being sold at a |
| headache and hassle of sourcing a good line of | | | | greatly reduced price, then it would devalue their name |
| genuine, regular, well priced stock that will give you a | | | | and all that their high class name stands for - well |
| great ROI (Return On Investment). If you are looking at | | | | that's part of their reasoning anyway. So they destroy |
| selling Genuine Designer Clothes, the headaches and | | | | them - handbags, dresses, ties, you name it, destroyed! |
| hassles can multiply drastically as every con man and | | | | However some of them do not destroy last seasons |
| scammer will tell you that they have that genuine | | | | items, they have traditional and well organised channels |
| source, only for them to take your money and be | | | | to discreetly dispose of their stock and this is where |
| gone. However, if this is the niche for you, then you | | | | you might, occasionally be able to pick up 100 pieces |
| really need to school yourself in how to find genuine | | | | of one item. But that, I stress, is not a regular supply. |
| wholesale designer clothes. | | | | Some labels even go as far as having discreet outlets |
| Well firstly you need to understand and accept that | | | | and channels, kind of like factory shops or seconds, |
| most, not all, but most of the sites that are offering you | | | | and they get rid of their excess stock this way. Again, |
| 50 x polo shirts, 100 x trousers on a regular and | | | | how do you even find out where and when this stock |
| constant basis are probably selling you counterfeit | | | | is being sold? What if you live on one side of the world |
| items. It is not that you cannot buy 50 of one item | | | | and your chosen brand has their factory shop on the |
| online from a source and that item be genuine, what | | | | other side of the world, can you phone them up and |
| you need to ask yourself is how are they regularly | | | | reserve a batch? Again no! You have to "fly and buy" |
| able to source that item? How can they regularly have | | | | and if you cannot afford the cash or the time to do |
| 50 of the same item for sale? When most of the | | | | that, again you miss out. |
| designer labels do not sell their items wholesale? | | | | In essence the labels have a brand that they have |
| You cannot call up a label and ask for 50 shirts. They | | | | worked hard at creating and publicising. They work |
| will doubtless laugh at you or tell you that they do not | | | | equally as hard to protect that brand/name and looking |
| deal with individual traders. Why would they? It is not | | | | at it from their point of view, who can blame them? It |
| worth their while and between them, they have a | | | | is their creativity, it is their talent and money and it is |
| pretty good deal going on. Their brands are well | | | | their product. However, that does not mean that there |
| known. They are highly sought after and they | | | | are not genuine items out there to be bought and sold |
| command a good price retail. | | | | and from which a great profit can be made selling on |
| So with that in mind, just how might that one time offer | | | | auctions such as Ebay, you just have to know where |
| from a source online, selling you 50 shirts, turn out to | | | | to look. |
| be selling you genuine items? Well at the end of the | | | | I've been scammed and conned and lost thousands of |
| season, some of the labels need to get rid of stock to | | | | dollars in my pursuit of a decent income for me and |
| make room on the rails for the latest seasons lines | | | | my family. It took many months of searching and |
| that they are bringing out. Some labels will destroy their | | | | uncovering, but finally when I did find out what really |
| left overs so that they do not end up in the off-price | | | | goes on in the wholesale designer clothing world, I |
| market. They do this simply to protect their label and to | | | | started making good money. |
| keep that exclusive air about their name. Think about it, | | | | |
