Part 5/9:
The unknown venture in the mix was TV flipping—a hustle not widely discussed but proved to be lucrative for the narrator. His strategy involved sourcing second-hand TVs at discounted prices to resell at a markup. For example, he purchased a Sony 50-inch TV for £100, which he resold for around £160.
This segment of his experiment highlighted an essential lesson: items like TVs often have less competition in resale markets compared to ubiquitous electronics like smartphones. The narrator emphasized that the transaction process was quicker and required less customer negotiation, making it a potentially more reliable avenue for profit.
