Which Option Is Right for You?

When Bulk Sale Is Better

  • You need cash immediately — bulk pays in 1 to 3 days
  • The stock is mixed condition or customer returns
  • You need warehouse space cleared urgently
  • The total value is relatively low and not worth the wait
  • You want zero involvement after the sale
Higher Returns

When Consignment Is Better

  • The stock is brand new or open box — higher individual resale value
  • You can wait 2 to 6 weeks for higher returns
  • The stock includes branded or in-demand products
  • You want to maximise revenue from every item
  • You do not want to deal with listing, shipping, or customer service

How This Calculator Works

This calculator compares two ways to sell your clearance stock: a one-off bulk sale (where we buy everything in one go) versus consignment selling (where we sell items individually and split the revenue). The estimates are based on current UK clearance market recovery rates for each category, adjusted for condition and quantity.

Bulk sale figures reflect what a professional clearance buyer would typically offer for the entire lot. Consignment figures are based on individual resale values achieved through marketplaces like eBay and Amazon, with our 35% commission deducted.
