The real problem

A pallet can look like a great deal.Until you do the math.

Liquidation manifests can contain dozens or hundreds of products with different resale values, demand levels, selling fees, competition, condition risk, and time-to-sell.

MSRP isn't the same as what you can realistically sell it for.

A pallet that looks profitable at first glance can quickly turn into a loss if you overpay. Pallet IQ helps you make the buying decision before you spend the money.

The core promise

Don't just know what it's worth.Know what you should pay.

A liquidation seller may show MSRP. A marketplace may show an estimated value. But what matters to a reseller is one question:

“What is the most I can pay and still have a profitable deal?”

Pallet IQ works backward from realistic resale economics to calculate a maximum bid for the exact manifest in front of you.

Realistic resale value

Demand

How desirable the inventory appears to be.

Risk

Potential issues with the inventory.

Profit potential

What the economics could look like.

Why MSRP isn't enough

MSRP doesn't pay your bills.

A $10,000 MSRP pallet doesn't mean you can put $10,000 in your bank account. Real-world resale depends on current market prices, demand, competition, selling fees, condition, time to sell, and other expenses.

  • Current market prices
  • Demand
  • Competition
  • Selling fees
  • Condition
  • Time to sell
