Why Facebook Marketplace “Deals” Are Not a Long-Term Strategy

BMC Wholesale is not designed for beginners.
This page explains why serious resellers can’t rely on Facebook Marketplace if they want to scale.

For many newcomers with less than 1 year of experience in the resale business, the first reaction is often: “But I saw a Samsung Galaxy S21 on Facebook Marketplace for cheaper…”
And yes—it can happen. Once in a while, you might stumble on a lucky deal, like a 75-year-old seller who unknowingly posts her phone for 100$ when the market value is 225$. But let’s be honest: that’s not a strategy you can build or scale a business on.

Some beginners even spend hours scrolling through Facebook Marketplace hoping to find that “perfect deal.” What they don’t realize is that this wasted time is a hidden cost that eats into profit. And even worse, there’s always the chance of buying a blacklisted phone—meaning their “amazing bargain” quickly turns into an incredibly costly mistake, since the device can’t be resold.

At BMC Wholesale, we provide what serious resellers actually need:

• Consistent access to tested, high-quality devices

• The ability to buy in volume (10, 20, even 50 devices at once—not just one)

• A real warranty (90 days on our devices)

• Competitive wholesale pricing in CAD

• Fast, secure shipping across North America

If you want to scale beyond the “newcomer phase,” you need stability, reliability, and trust—not luck. That’s exactly why BMC Wholesale exists: so your business doesn’t have to gamble on the Facebook Marketplace lottery.

A Real Example: Tech Distributions

In the beginning, Tech Distributions was wasting time on Facebook Marketplace, chasing random one-off deals. It wasn’t until they gained experience and developed true entrepreneurial maturity that they realized the value of working with a reliable wholesale supplier. That shift allowed them to increase their revenue significantly and achieve steady growth—something that would have been impossible if they had continued relying on Facebook Marketplace. Why? Because there simply isn’t enough consistency, diversification of inventory, or protection against risks like blacklisted devices to sustain real growth.

If you’re serious about reselling and generating real profit, it’s time to leave Facebook Marketplace behind.
Luck won’t scale your business—structure, consistency, and the right partners will. That’s exactly what BMC Wholesale delivers.

Dear Customers,

We are excited to inform you about a major update on our BMC Wholesale website. From now on, all mobile device models will be displayed, even if they are currently out of stock. This will allow you to see the price at which you can purchase these devices once they become available.

At BMC Wholesale, our new ordering procedure is designed to enhance your purchasing experience by providing personalized offers based on the grade and type of device you’re interested in. To make the most of this process, we encourage you to add more than one model to your cart, especially those you would like and/or typically purchase. By selecting multiple models, you allow us to better understand your preferences and offer you the best options available.

Here’s how the new procedure works:

1. Browse our website, select the devices you’re interested in, and add them to your cart. For the best results, we recommend adding multiple models that reflect what you would like to purchase or what you generally buy.

2. On the checkout page, click on ”Submit Request: Notify Me When Available”.
This simply shows us that you’re interested in these products once they’re available.

Note: No payment is necessary when you click on “Submit Request: Notify Me When Available.” Only devices ready for shipment will require payment.

3. Our team will review your order and match your profile to the models that fit your business needs.

4. If any of the devices are ready for immediate shipment, one of our team members will contact you to arrange payment and/or recommend similar devices that are currently in stock and may interest you. You can pay via PayPal/credit card (4% fee), e-transfer (no fee), or direct bank deposit (no fee).

5. Once payment is received, we will proceed with shipping your order.

This new feature aims to provide more transparency and help you plan your purchases in advance.

Thank you for your continued trust, and we look forward to serving you!
