I was thinking of getting perhaps 3 or even 6 iPhone 15 Pro Max and then keep one and sell the rest on eBay. If I can earn $200 each, then perhaps if I get 6 total, then my own iPhone is like $200 only (after profits). But right now, I need to pay sales tax on the phone, and the buyer needs to pay sales tax on the phone on eBay. And eBay / PayPal together make 10% profits, and I need to make 20% profits, so it looks like the selling price needs to be: 1199 * 1.09 * 1.1 * 1.2 => 1725.1212 while the buyer will pay 9% sales tax on it. Also, one time I put it as free two day shipping, and I think the buyer might have found a listing that is $50 cheaper or something, so he outright declined the delivery so that it is returned to me. So he hurt me, because I had to pay for that $28 second day delivery fee and it went to waste, but like in America, that famous phrase, "it is YOUR problem".
Hahahaha wow it’s 2008 again.
I wish I didn’t read any of this.
I'd check and see what reseller websites who will buy from you is offering such as itsworthmore rather than dealing with eBay. Unless can earn significantly more through individual buyers id say not worth it. Have done similar stuff many times most recently buying 12 dell xps laptops and ending up with one for myself for free due to profits (retail cost of 2k) as well as additional couple thousand in profit
I know... getting an item free like that is not bad, especially if it is a Natural Titanium iPhone 15 Pro Max with a 3nm chip
The "got it for free" is the wrong line of thinking. That's like me saying "I got an iPhone for free after profits from working 4 hours at my day job" If you can scale it up to be a lucrative resale business then by all means, but at the end of the day you're just doing a side job

Subhuman mindset
You owe income tax on all that profit bud
Why will anyone buy from you for a premium price instead of buying it themselves from an apple store or their provider?
Because the iPhone 15 pro max is sold out till November. And there are people who want it on day 1 for bragging rights and are willing to pay exorbitant prices.
You are late to this if you are just thinking about it now. Unless you have pre-ordered multiple last Friday, now ordering you won’t get anything before November for 15 Pro Max
