In the booming sneaker resale market, SuperBuy
The Reseller Playbook
Reselling
- Bulk purchasing high-demand colorways (TS Low OG, Panda Dunk, Black Cat OG etc.) from Chinese marketplaces
- Consolidating multiple purchases through SuperBuy's parcel consolidation service to minimize shipping costs
- Shipping inventory home in optimized batches
- Distributing through local resale channels including:
- Sneaker enthusiast chat groups (WeChat/Telegram)
- Facebook Marketplace listings
- International resale platforms (StockX-look alike)
A single well-optimized shipment of 4-6 pairs can see per-unit shipping costs reduced by 80% versus individual shipping.
