Copy-paste prompt
I'm a reseller. Attached is a liquidation manifest. My channel is Facebook Marketplace and eBay. Freight quote: $[FREIGHT]. Buyer's premium: [X]%. Target profit: [Y]% of cost. 1. Sort lines by extended retail and research recent SOLD prices for the top 20 (not asking prices). 2. Assume [RECOVERY]% of units are sellable as listed. 3. Estimate net resale after fees, then the max all-in bid that still hits my target. 4. List red flags: missing UPCs, oversized items, brands with high return rates, hazmat. Show a table, then one paragraph: buy or pass and why.
