FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Dealer Access to Inventory?

Here’s what we hear most often:

  1. You can reduce or eliminate excessively marked-down inventory, so you can keep your customers focused on full-priced, higher margin products.
  2. You can instantly use the resources to sell old inventory (staff time, floor space, marketing efforts, etc) on your most profitable products and best customers.
  3. You will sell more items at full price.
  4. We can best support athletic footwear with a retail value of $80 or more.
  5. We offer free appraisals, free pick up and shipping for your inventory, and various payment options to meet your needs.
Will I have an actual human to support me?

Surplus, old, and unproductive inventory takes up a disproportionate amount of resources (capital, staff time, rent, floor space, marketing efforts, etc.) compared to more profitable products. Relay provides an easy, effective, and secure method to sell excess inventory without a retailer using any additional resources.
