Discover how consignment stock works for electronics resellers. Learn how to stock 50 items with just 25% deposit, sell them and keep 20% guaranteed margin plus all profit above trade price.

If you are an electronics reseller looking to grow your inventory without tying up large amounts of capital, consignment stock could be the most powerful business model you have not yet tried.

What is Consignment Stock?

Consignment stock is an arrangement where a supplier provides goods to a reseller without requiring full payment upfront. The reseller pays a deposit to secure the stock, sells the items through their channels, then pays the remaining balance from their sales revenue. You keep the profit above the agreed trade price.

How the Saitell Consignment Programme Works

Select up to 50 items from the Saitell stock list. Pay 25% as a deposit — on a $5,000 batch that is just $1,250. We ship all 50 items directly to you. You list them on eBay, Amazon or your own website at any price you choose. When they sell, you send us 60% of the original trade price per item and keep 20% as your guaranteed margin plus 100% of any additional profit above our price.

Real Example

50 cameras at $100 trade price each equals $5,000 total. Your deposit is $1,250. You sell each camera at $140 on eBay. You send Saitell $60 per camera (60% of $100). You keep $80 per camera — your $20 guaranteed margin plus $40 extra profit. Total profit on the batch: $4,000.

Loyalty Tiers

Complete more consignments and your deposit drops automatically. After 3 consignments it drops to 20%. After 6 it drops to 15%. After 10 it is just 10%. The more you sell the less capital you need upfront.
