Georgia man buys pallet of Amazon returns for $983.39 with a retail estimate of $2,873 and he opens it to see if he got lucky

A man bought a pallet of Amazon returns for under a $1,000, with the hopes of making an easy profit by selling them on eBay – but did the gamble pay off?

Buying returned items can be a great way to make some extra cash without a lot of effort. 

But, of course, it’s not guaranteed – just ask the guy who was promised a haul worth $328,000, only to end up with a whole lot less.

YouTuber Harrison Nevel decided to give it a go, splashing out $983.39 for a pallet that contained items original estimated to be worth $2,873 – and here’s what he found inside.

The Amazon returns pallet contained some interesting items

The YouTuber is no stranger to snapping up a pallet of returns; he’s previously splashed out on a load of returned Apple tech and made himself a decent profit.

So, he probably had pretty high hopes opening up his pallet of Amazon returns.

The listing claimed the box contained a total of 22 items, and Harrison wasted no time in tearing it open to get a better look. 

As soon as he opened up the box, he spotted a PlayStation 5, complete with a game and controller, but he decided to check out the rest of the box before opening it up to see if it worked. 

The first item he pulled out was a balancing jousting set that looked like a lot of fun. 

To put a value on the items, Harrison decided to use recent eBay sale prices and found that the jousting set had sold for $23. 

Next up, he pulled out a kid’s swing that had recently sold for $45, before moving on to a Viotech curved monitor that was brand-new and could sell for around $80. 

Other items included in the box were an 80ft zip line, worth $22, an inflatable darts and soccer set, that could sell for $145, and a Slackers NinjaLine kit worth $70.

There were also more tech bits, including a bunch of monitors, worth around $600 all in – not bad, right?

Harrison then finally checked out the PS 5, which also came with a sealed copy of God of War Ragnarok and a camo controller. 

He plugged the console in and set it up, and it booted up with no problem.

So how much were the items in the pallet actually worth?

Harrison kept a running total of what the items inside the pallet were worth. 

Before he even took a look at the PS5, he reckoned everything else added up to around $1,292 – a $300 profit on what he paid. 

With the PS 5 working, and its game and controller, Harrison said the value of the pallet finally sat at $1,720, leaving him with a ‘pure profit’ of $730. 

So, in the end, the pallet was worth quite a bit less than the estimated $2,873 but still ended in a solid profit.
