Online Arbitrage

Online arbitrage is similar to retail arbitrage but involves purchasing discounted products from online retailers (Walmart.com, Target.com, clearance websites) and reselling them on Amazon at higher prices.

Why Online Arbitrage Matters for Amazon Sellers

Online arbitrage offers scalability advantages over retail arbitrage since sourcing can be done remotely. Dock, it shares the same fundamental limitations around brand gating and supply inconsistency.
