We web scrape marketplaces to find high quality, profitable items ready for you to sell. Any time prices and quantities change for an item on them, RealArb updates those changes on your Amazon storefront in real time. This automates the whole sourcing process and ensures the program is always running smoothly.
We believe we are in this together. That is why we bill off a revenue sharing model. This way if YOU are not selling, profiting, and happy then neither are we.
What we offer is better than a free trial. You will make sales and see how it all works before you pay us anything. Your bill is based on a revenue-share, so you will ALWAYS make sales before we send you a bill.
The dashboard we provide you with will help you keep track of all info related to an order (order numbers, tracking numbers, workflow status, etc…)
When we publish/list the items for you the price contains everything including item cost, our fee, seller’s fee, shipping (if needed), and your profits.

Here at RealArb we have made it extremely easy to account for international returns. In addition to the other variables that go into the items published price, we also include a return neutralization cost. Also just like with amazon US for all returns and cancels you will receive a refund for the RealArb fee.
Return Neutralization Boost – This is a additional markup to your listing that goes to you at the time of sale. All items are published with this $25 up charge. This charge is added to neutralize the cost associated with international return management, which can be costly. Thanks to this margin boost, you can rest assured knowing that losses due to returns are accounted for.
It is up to you how you would like to approach returns operationally. No matter your operational selection the $25 up charge will remain to assist you. Here at RealArb our preferred method for handling returns is to refund the international customer and allow them to keep the item. The $25 return neutralization up charge completely covers this operational method.
The cost of duties is included in the listing price of your orders. We require that all clients ship internationally with “DDP” shipping meaning duties are paid as the order goes through customs. This amount is estimated and paid at the time a shipping label is created and is based off the declared value. If customs determine a value different than your estimated duties, your shipping carrier will invoice you for this difference.
With shipping items internationally, duties and customs can be intimidating. Contrary to popular belief they are easy to understand and account for. We include this additional cost into the items price for you, ensuring your profits will be unaffected.
The actual breakdown of how to calculate this number is the following. For most countries, we use the manufacturer’s cost of an item as the declared value, which comes to be 1/3 of the price in which you sold the item for. You must pay 20% for duties of this value. (ex. Sold for $150 = $10 duties cost.)
