‘How about leaving it there for struggling mums?’ People rage as man clears TK Maxx shelves to sell on for profit
A MAN has caused outrage, after he revealed that he has been clearing the shelves in TK Maxx to sell products on for profit.
‘Entrepeneur’ Tom, took to social media to share his money making plans.
Posting under the username, @tomfba, he filmed a TikTok of himself going around TK Maxx and loading a basket full of discounted items.
Before picking the items up, Tom scanned them with an app called BuyBotGo, which tells him how much the items are selling for on Amazon, and how many times they have sold this month.
He mostly picked up children’s toys, for example a Playmobil set that he purchased for £14.99, which he said he would make £5 profit from selling on Amazon.
After piling his trolley high, Tom left the store, laden with bags upon bags of products.
He said that he will get about £50 profit from selling the products on.
“Not bad for 15 minutes work”, he said.
Tom, who said he is on a “wealth journey” revealed that he will resell the products using Amazon FBA.
Amazon FBA is a service that online sellers can use, where Amazon takes care of the storing, packing and shipping of your products.
So all Tom will have to do is send the products off the Amazon and wait for the money to roll in.
In a second video, Tom revealed that he quit his 9-5, after discovering that he could make £3000 profit per month by just selling 10 products for £10 on Amazon each day.
Tom’s money making scheme has caused outrage online, with some people branding him selfish.
TikTok users raced to the video’s comments section to share their thoughts.
One person said: “How about leaving it there for struggling mums instead of making them pay more than double?”
Another person added: “This is unethical.
“These bargains could really help struggling parents for their kids.”
A third person said: “Stop buying baby products”.
However, some people were supportive of Tom’s business plans.
One person said: “Business is business”.
Another person said: “First come first serve, if parents are struggling that much perhaps get there first.
“They can’t be that desperate if they can’t be bothered”.
