Retail Arbitrage (RA)
Finding products in retail establishments that present an arbitrage opportunity. RA might involve spending time in retail stores while using a scanning app on your smartphone to compare prices online. This will allow you to see if you can make a profit by reselling the item on Amazon, eBay, or some other venue.
Online Arbitrage (OA)
Finding products online that present an arbitrage opportunity. OA might involve joining a deals service or Facebook group, subscribing to arbitrage software, or just becoming very proficient at scouring websites looking for items that can be resold on another platform for a profit, after fees and expenses are deducted.
