hi and welcome back to another Amazon selling video it is rainy day here out in Oklahoma um
hopefully my little editing skills are skills are gonna cut out the rain noise but it is raining and
it's like not fun to Source in the rain but here I am running to the car every time anyways if you're
new to my channel my name is Nikki Kirk and I'm out here sourcing for Retail Arbitrage today and I
would thought I would take you with me too bye bye baby they don't have a ton of locations I think
here in Oklahoma they only have one or two one in this city where I'm currently at which is Tulsa so
I'm gonna hit it up I do actually have good luck with Bye Bye Baby online doing online Arbitrage so
I am confident that maybe we'll find some stuff but regardless we're gonna head over and check
it out it has been like four years since I've been to a bye bye baby it's been quite a while
um it's January and so far I'm doing really good today so I just got done at Target and
they had real good clearance and I got some other stuff at Target there's a little bit of
a shortage of something right now so I loaded up on that stuff most the stuff I've gotten so
far today from Walmart and Target I am fbming so I'm listing it in the store hopefully it's
gonna sell soon if not I'll just go ahead and put it in my shed and wait for it to sell all right
I'm just rambling at this point so let's head over to bye bye baby and see what we can find
okay so the rain has stopped which is good but there's no saving my hair my hair is
what it is today anyways I often forget that stores like this so it's a part of
the Bed Bath and Beyond family and it's similar to like coals and belt where if the stuff's not
on sale it's overly priced every time I scan baby stuff I'm like how do people afford kids
but obviously they probably don't shop here okay so anyways I saw toys right away and tons and tons
of clearance stuff so some of the toys like looked like maybe they might make profit but
then when you click through the fees are so high that they don't make any money or they make like a
dollar or two and the fees are the fees let's not get upset at the fees one way around the fees if
you don't want to do FBA is fbm and I'm fbming a lot more recently because of the fees so I'm
going to show a couple things throughout this video that they don't necessarily make money
FBA but if you fbm them they do make a little more money and it might be worth your while one thing
to keep in mind for the baby category is that the rank has to be kind of low like anywhere 40 to 50
000 like 50 000 is getting up there I've got some stuff that I bought from Bye Bye Baby online
um that is ranked 100 000 in baby and I sent it in a few months ago and it has not sold because
that is a high rank for a baby if you want my rank guidelines like what I suggest ranks that
will sell in the various categories it's a free download when you sign up for my email newsletter
so you can grab that if you want it the link is below or you can just head to my website and grab
it there now it is January and when this video comes out it'll be like the end of January but
every spring and then again in summer or like fall time they are doing even though I know it's winter
it's spring on retail anyways they do resets so there's so much clearance throughout the store so
I got I went through the Walmart clearance the Target clearance was real good today and then
there's tons and tons of clearance here at bye bye baby so I did scan a lot of the clearance now here
is some of the examples of what I found so this item is a mobile mobile whatever you call it and
it looks good it looks like it makes money but Amazon is on the listing so first things first
I went ahead and I put the ascent into IP alert which is a paid app it's a a Chrome extension and
it comes with an app where you can input asins and or brand names and it'll tell you if they're known
for IPs and in the summer months it'll tell you if it's known for meltable or sorry if it is meltable
anyway so I put it in there because I didn't know the brand and it came up all good so that checked
out however Amazon is on the listing and so I just wanted to check keepa to see if they share the buy
box and it does not appear that they share the buy box because they're giving it to themselves 100 of
the time so even though it looks like it's going to make money I'm not going to fight Amazon who
is in the buy box 100 of the time on it on that one but there was another item from that brand
which they do share the buy box so this one look at that it makes 91 and Amazon shares the buy book
so that one is a safe bet that one I would totally invest in because it's only forty five dollars and
it's gonna make ninety one dollars heck yeah if you want the IP alert Chrome extension and the
app they have given me a 30 off code so I will drop it right here or it's on the screen just
yoursellingguide.com IP alert and you will be redirected right to it and it already has the
coupon code or if you go to it the coupon code is just my name Nikki Nikki here's another one
of those examples I was talking about where this one it doesn't make a lot of money FBA but if you
were to fbm them it does make a little bit more money and this item is lightweight and at most
it's probably gonna cost five dollars to ship it so anything that you have that's lightweight fits
in a padded envelope fits in a small box and it's going to be total with everything under a pound
you can estimate at the very high end it's going to be six dollars but most of the time it's like
five dollars 550 so you can use that in your calculations to see if it's worth it next up
I hit two massive clothing clearance sections and the thing with the clothing Carters no actually no
matter where you're at they had Adidas and Nike stuff here too no matter where you're scanning
even if you're scanning at Ross TJ Maxx you're gonna scan like 20 items and maybe only one will
actually come up on Amazon that's totally normal and then you're gonna be seeing that it doesn't
actually make any profit or the rank is really high or it has no rank so it is a little bit of a
the adventure and skinning clothings but it does go real fast like when I was scanning bras at Belk
before you just go real fast and if it doesn't have it just move on scan scan scan the UPC so
you can go fast just keep scanning after all of that clothing I went over to like the baby
diapering and like tooth like paste whatever mouth stuff and so here is a Burt's Bees lotion that I
found and I just wanted to show you it doesn't make a lot it makes like two dollars profit but
a reason I wanted to show it to you is because it has different packaging which is just fine you can
still sell it if the packaging is different as long as the item is the same and the scents the
same the ounces are the same all of that the packaging doesn't matter so I'm guessing that
since burnt bees and it looked like that shea moisture baby stuff has all new packaging this
year all that other stuff with the old packaging we might start seeing it at Grocery Outlet all
these TJ Maxx Ross so keep an eye out for that stuff because I have a feeling it's going to end
up over there and it could make profit one last item I found here is a toothbrush set that again
is okay for FBA but you'll be able to fbm it and make even more profit so this one I found again
here at bye bye baby now I am not gonna add Bye Bye Baby to my Retail Arbitrage sourcing but I do
do it for online Arbitrage I do recommend it for online Arbitrage if you have tactical Arbitrage
uh that is really good and bye bye babies on there so that's how I've been finding a lot of
the stuff that I find at Bye Bye Baby online just because like they it's easy to shop the clearance
online anyways it's just easier online so I won't I don't necessarily recommend for Retail
Arbitrage but for online Arbitrage it is really good so that's this video I'm gonna head over to
Ollie's and continue my sourcing so hopefully I do better um because it didn't do real good at this
store but so far the morning has been going great anyways thanks so much for watching don't forget
