Bidding Wars: Episode 4
Auctioneer Kevin Duala invites six teams of rival re-sellers to his special warehouse, where they compete to win bulk pallets of themed goods for the best price. The teams then head off to try to sell them on for profit. There’s just one catch – they don’t actually know what’s in the pallet until they’ve bought it. The three enticing pallets in this episode are fancy dress, gardening equipment and a lucky dip.
The reselling of retail returns has become a multi-million-pound business, with a growing community of entrepreneurial re-sellers buying up unchecked bulk selections of returned consumer items, most previously bought online. The right goods can turn over a tidy profit for a lucky seller.
In Bidding Wars, we follow a returning cast of re-sellers from across Britain as they try to generate a profit from their blind purchases through online second-hand sites, car boot sales and specialist dealers.
