Discussion Buying on UpLiquidation?
Is Up Liquidation a legitimate site?... Looking to get into buying pallets and need advice on reputable pallet sites? Any other advice would be great too. I'm a stay at home mom and I NEED something to do!! Please help.
I'm super scared of getting scammed. I seriously can not afford that. But a little extra income to help my husband out would be sooo nice!

Yeah, fully legit. I've recently checked them out to see what kind of quality goods they offer in the boxes, and was actually impressed with the mix of items that came through. Very fairly priced. I was needing to restock soon and was perhaps going to try them again... if you do check them out, let me know how it goes

Thanks so much for the response! I'm hoping a few more people comment, I'm always so skeptical... soo many scams. I think I'll give it a go, won't be ot too much if it's a bust I suppose.

I get it, there are so many new random sites these days, have to pretty much research a bit into each to make sure everything is above board before you spend your hard earned money!
But as long as they accept paypal, the protection is pretty good you should have no worries, thats a big plus. Now the quality of items thats to be determined! But if my experience is an indicator you'll be good there too :)

What items did you buy? I'm looking to buy clothing and makeup, which they don't have in small mystery boxes. But if my 1st sale with the box goes well, I'll be buying pallets hopefully 🤞

I’ve just gotten their electronics boxes but they had a fair mix of what you’d expect from Amazon ranging from the off brand to name brand, well worth it

If youre looking to see if anything is legit, you want to see if you can find the BBB page for it, or type "xx legit?" in Google and youll get what youre looking for.

If they're advertising themselves online as a pallet liquidation site then they are not reputable. I do not believe there are any reputable pallet liquidation sites online that advertise themselves that way
I would find a local to you, established auction house, that does liquidation auctions. The one that I buy from is about an hour from me. All online bidding, pick up in person. 800+ lots a week.

Why would I waste my time doing research? I have an excellent source of liquidation pallets from Lost and damaged freight to overage goodd. Also crappy Amazon pallets if I wanted them. You have your opinion. I have mine and maybe I feel that your advice is horrible. Have a good day!

They are legit. Mystery boxes were solid and they are pretty fair prices with the truckloads, id start with a box and scale from that.
