Here's the complete breakdown of what you get at each price point.

Why the Per-Item Cost Matters for Resellers
When you resell mystery box items, your profit on each item is the sale price minus the per-item cost basis. With an average cost basis of ~$4.50/item across AmazeDeals boxes:
- Selling an item for $15 = $10.50 gross profit per item
- Selling an item for $30 = $25.50 gross profit per item
- Selling an item for $60 = $55.50 gross profit per item
Even after eBay's 13.25% fee, the margins on quality retail overstock are strong compared to traditional retail arbitrage or thrift store flipping.

Which Box Tier Should I Start With?
First-time resellers: Start with the Pro Box ($199). It gives you 30–35 items to practice listing across platforms without over-committing. The Starter Box ($149) is fine but gives fewer items to work with — your learning curve is steeper with less inventory.
Returning resellers: The Elite XL Box ($249) offers the best per-item economics and gives you enough inventory for a full Whatnot show, an eBay store refresh, and local listings simultaneously.
