Building a "Sell Your ____ For Cash" website like Gazelle.com but on a much, much smaller scale?
There's this product brand that everyone who has one hates it and everyone who doesn't have one, wants one. I buy them whenever I can on Craigslist, etc and resell them for a good $40-80 profit. But sourcing them is hard. I want to make a website where people can just directly send theirs to me for cash, like how Gazelle.com, buybackworld.com, etc works.
The brand has about 6 different "models" so the site will not be anywhere near as complex as the big guys who have multiples categories and sub categories.
My site would consist of just 6 options. 6 models, and they choose which one they own and want to sell. They will be brought to a short questioner screen that asks about condition, etc and that will determine how much $ they get, followed by a shipping address screen and payment option. There would need to be a login feature too for people to track their stuff.
Is building a website like the feasible with, say, a $300ish dollar budget? Obviously I'd need to hire someone.
There are currently, and exactly, only 2 other competitors in this exact field offering money for the exact products I'm after. And how much money they offer people is LAUGHABLE. I can offer about 30% more than the other 2 websites and still make a killing with reselling them.
Any advice greatly appreciated! I know this is a very off the wall, peculiar and specific question, but if anyone can help even in the slightest, you would make my day thank you.
