News, tips and tricks for FBA sourcing and online arbitrage - from the team building the tool.

All three models resell genuine products on Amazon; they differ in where the stock comes from. That one difference drives starting capital, time per deal, how each model scales and which risks you carry. A side-by-side comparison, and an honest answer on where a beginner should start.

Online arbitrage is buying products from ordinary retail websites at a price low enough to resell them on Amazon at a profit after fees. Here is how the cycle works, what one unit looks like in numbers, whether it is legal, what it costs to start, and where the model goes wrong.

Selling and holding one unit through FBA can trigger seven separate fees. Only three arrive with no condition attached. The other four apply when a stated condition is met: two are sales-volume thresholds you can check against your own numbers, one is a shipment choice, and one is the age of the stock. Every rate here was read off Amazon's own fee pages on 4 August 2026.

Amazon never publishes unit sales. We checked nearly 900,000 sales badges against the rank shown on the same page to find out how close an estimate can get. It lands within two times of the badge figure 73.5% of the time, it is twice as good in Toys as in Electronics, and below 50 units a month it can say nothing at all.

Online arbitrage is six jobs, not six tools: find candidates, match them to Amazon, cost them after fees, check demand, check your restrictions, then price and restock. What each job decides, what breaks when it is done badly, and how much of it one subscription covers.

Some Amazon categories never return a buyable deal, no matter how you set the filters. Here is why a category comes back empty, which ones can never work, where the deals actually concentrate, and the filter rules that stop you wasting scan time.
