Retail arbitrage is when individuals buy items in retail stores for a lower price than they can sell them online. Then, they resell items online. People who do this typically use large online marketplaces such as Amazon or
to resell their items for a significant profit.
When people find items to sell in stores, they are typically on sale or clearance, or they use a coupon that helps them to purchase items in bulk. This helps them to undercut online retailers and gives them the potential for higher profits when they sell the items online. The idea is that the more cheaply you can purchase an item for, the more likely you are to churn a profit. In other words, retail arbitrage allows individuals to buy things for a low price in stores and sell them for a higher price online.
