Our Inventory

We sell two different types of inventory. They are separate on purpose because the checkout and fulfillment process is different. Wholesale Liquidation Pallet orders use freight quoting at checkout and wholesale payment processes. Mystery boxes use standard online checkout with standard shipping.

Pallet Inventory: Wholesale inventory sold by the pallet or truckload. Freight is quoted at checkout after you select the pallets you are buying. Wire transfer only unless otherwise specified.

Mystery Boxes: Standard online checkout for a shippable product. Click the mystery boxes button, choose your mystery boxes, and check out like normal online shopping. Card payments are accepted for mystery boxes with standard shipping.

Important: Pallet orders and mystery box orders are handled separately. Mystery boxes are not combined with pallet freight shipments.

Pallet Buying

Pallet inventory is designed for wholesale buying. Buyers can purchase one pallet, multiple pallets, half loads, or full truckloads depending on available listings. You choose the pallets first, then freight is quoted at checkout based on the amount of pallets you are buying and your delivery requirements.

Browse live pallet inventory, add the pallets you want to your cart, then proceed to checkout. Freight is quoted at checkout after you select the pallets you are buying and enter delivery details.
Can I buy one pallet?
Yes. You can buy one pallet or multiple pallets depending on inventory availability.

Freight Quoting for Pallet Orders
