Update 2 - Price raised to $159.99
Update: Many people are saying that the price starts at $199.99 but drops down to $149.99 in the shopping cart.
The iPod Touch 5th Generation (not the newest generation) 16GB version is on sale at Best Buy for $150. Limit of 5 per person.
If you buy 2 of them, the price is $325 for me with tax.
Use your synced American Express Offers for You for an additional $25 off so you are paying $300. Basically the sync offer negates taxes for me. $150 per iPod including tax.
They sell on Amazon for $205-$215 each. FBA fees are ~$20 so $40 for 2.
If you can only sell for $205, you takehome will be about $35 per iPod. $70 for the 2 of them. If you can sell for $215, your take home is closer to $45 per iPad. That's 20% margins on the sale. I didn't even get to anything else.
You can repeat this again since the limit is 5.
You will earn ~300 Best Buy points (per 2 iPods) which are worth about $6 towards a future item.
Start your purchase at Be Frugal for an extra 1.5% cashback ($4.5). You can also try ShopatHome for 2% cashback ($6). I've never used it before, but others have had success.
You will also earn 1% or more with your credit card ($3+)
I need to spend another $85 to get to Best Buy Elite Plus status (one of the perks of reselling) so I will definitely take advantage of this offer to resell.
Amazon ranking is about 5,000. It might be a slower resell, but with these margins I think it is worth it. I sold a 64GB version of the same iPod and it sold within 1 day or 2. Make sure it is priced to sell and you should be fine.
