by the end of this video you will have a
great understanding on where you can buy
whole cell phones specifically iphones
so if you follow me for a while you know
i covered phone flipping
and i still to this day get the question
bro where do i buy
whole cell phones so i'm gonna go ahead
and run you all through that cause the
idea is is a lot of people think if i
can get enough units can i get a decent
price break on them and we about to find
out so let's jump right into it so
the most common train of thought is bro
what's it take to become an official
iphone retailer
an official iphone carrier right like
certified directly from apple so we're
gonna start right there and i'm gonna be
reading directly from the apple
authorized dealer program right on the
website and i'm gonna break it down
from their technical talk to terms that
me and you use every day so this is what
it says
companies organizations universities and
colleges and regions
where apple has a direct service
presence may
apply to become an apple authorized
service provider
so that doesn't give us a lot because
that pretty much
still means all of us are still in the
running right so in normal terms this is
what that pretty much means so in normal
terms what that means is if you live in
an
area that has an official apple point of
contact
where apple has direct service then you
can apply
that also means if you live in a place
that doesn't have that then you can
apply
now now let's get to the part where it
talks about requirements it says
organizations applying for authorized
service provider status are required to
have been in operation
for a reasonable period with audited
financial records available
for review by apple credit line is
required and must be agreed
with the apple finance team in the
appropriate region
the organization should actively promote
the apple brand as a part of their
business
along with applecare service and support
products so we're going to break that
down
you have to have a legit so basically
you have to have a legit business for a
reasonable amount of time they also want
to audit your financial
record they basically want to be all in
your business they want to know
every dollar that's coming in and out of
your organization and then when they say
a credit line must be approved
they basically want you to commit to a
large amount of stock
so basically they want to own and
control you
so what that means is you really can't
open a company
just to become an apple retailer and get
whole cell phone and with all those
requirements that pretty much means most
of us
can't go into it that way most of us
can't become a direct
apple plug but however don't quit on me
watch till the end because i have some
options for you that are the next best
thing
so because we understand that apple
wants us to commit to a
100k in product then we know we have to
go a different route
so let's cover two ways that i suggest
you get wholesale devices number one
ebay right and this isn't the most ideal
way however stay with me watch to the
end i promise you
this way will work out on ebay they sell
something called
lots lots right and a lot is basically
like a group of things all right so you
can actually buy
lots of phones groups of phones now you
know me i'ma always give you
the good the bad and the ugly let me
tell you why it's not always ideal the
reason why it's not always
ideal a lot of the time with lots it can
be broken phones
some of the lots are even sold as is so
you don't know what's up with the phones
but i'm gonna tell you off the top to
stay away from them however
if you do your homework if you search
like i've taught you in the past videos
on
things to check for when you're buying a
phone then it can definitely work out
for you because sometimes you can get a
lot of phones
that just need simple repairs and then
your profit shoots through the roof
because you make those simple repairs
and then and then now the phones are
back up to market value so let me tell
you how to find them
go on ebay and search for lots of phones
all right you're going to see them a lot
a lot in the auctions
so always be in the ebay auctions i tell
everybody
who asked me about phone flipping on
ebay stay
in those auctions bro stay active stay
looking for them and i promise you
you will find them that's one of the
ways that i used to buy wholesale when i
was flipping phones if i wanted
to get some good stock in i'd go find me
a good lot of phones maybe a lot of five
check them out see what's wrong with
each of them if it's worth my time
then just go ahead and bust them all
down bro and get them out the door and
like i said
the pros are the is the variety the
price break on the phones can be
life-changing and the cons the only cons
are the conditions of the phones
however when you hustling bro and
especially if you're starting out with a
low budget
then that's where you need to get in and
start and then work your way up
the next way that i'm going to suggest
is getting them from china and i want to
start off by saying
that not just me but i know people who
have
successfully who have successfully
bought bulk iphones
from china and everything went okay
places like dhgate
alibaba definitely have some wholesale
suppliers
that are top rated and make
sales every day and the reason i say
that is because naturally
a lot of people don't trust that method
and i 100 get it
however the phones from my experience
have came in brand new condition
with a box completely unlocked however
what i'm also going to be candid about
is those phones you don't get much of a
price break however there is a
small price break so a little bit of
advice whatever chinese website you use
whether it's dhj
alibaba always go with a top trusted
seller
and let me explain that to you from the
other side of the seat all right
as a seller you work hard to become a
top rated seller when you're a top rated
seller
you're pushed to the top when you're
pushed to the top you make more sales
you being a scammer you not doing good
business is not
good for you being a top seller because
when you get complaints
when you get chargebacks returns
whatever you
you don't qualify to be a top seller i
said that to say
dealing with top sellers whether it's
whatever site chinese websites ebay
sites whatever
dealing with them they have something to
lose which is their reputation
they're less likely to scam me also you
know how we do
we give you the good the bad the ugly
now dealing with these
chinese wholesalers you have to be
careful about the way you word things
because
there is a language barrier
unfortunately and sometimes things do
get lost in translation so make sure
you're always always 100 clear about the
amount of phones you want the exact item
number
and how many you want so just go on
alibaba
go on dhgate and search for iphone
wholesale
search the specific phones that you're
looking for and you'll have a better
chance of finding those
and sometimes you'll see just one big
listing with
all types of devices all different types
of packages and bundles and like i said
you'll notice quick that you don't get
that much of a price break and if so
it's only fifty to two hundred dollars
which when you're buying wholesale isn't
a lot but the pros are
the phones are unlocked crispy pristine
condition all right and that's honestly
the closest thing
you can get to official retailer status
so so i got another video about flipping
iphones meet me over there
thank you for tuning in let's attack
this monday let's get it
