Remaining stock and surplus stock

Surplus and remaining stock of unsold goods is a problem that is often unavoidable. Especially due to the increasingly fast moving world of products and technology many companies are stuck with unsold products and service items.

Usually, these excess items are then sold to wholesale buyers, with the price being calculated per total weight and mass instead of the specific obtainable value for each product.

Yet, when selling and auctioning excess stock directly to the end-consumer via online marketplaces, a maximum of added value for products in this particular phase of their product lifecycle can be achieved.

Especially when auctioning via eBay, with its large number of potentional clients, these products obtain a fair price that is often comparable to the retail price level.

 

Important points
Surplus and remaining stock are often unavoidable
These factors are a cause of high costs and can usually not be sold via existing sales channels
Online marketplaces are, however, an ideal sales channel for achieving an optimised added value, i.e. a realistic market price
