My neighbor did an unusual selling approach. Many of the people buy items from China, but it takes forever to get to the USA, even with free shipping. This
Neighbor has a stockpile of items he bought from China and he can ships the same items faster since he is in the USA for a bit extra. Seems the folks like it.


I don't know what you call this approach, Reseller, Forwarding Agent??


What is your opinion

The way I see it, if he is purchasing already made products from China and then selling them at a profit, he would be a re-seller.

Since he has taken title to the items then resells them he is a reseller.

I have sold and bought a lot on ebay and see a lot of this going on.
I don't mind paying more if I want something quickly, but usually buy directly from China.

I would call him an entrepreneur.

There are many businesses that buy in large lots from China, and stockpiles them, and then resale them. I know several in Atlanta Georgia. I even have a friend that buys 10,000 USD or more of items and then stores and resales.
