Canadian Tire
Hey Anthony - Canadian Tire has started cancelling my online orders. I phoned and the lady suggested I use a different credit card (not my Canadian Tire Mastercard) but that didn't work. She said it was flagged as commercial. I was trying to buy 20 units. Any suggestions?

@Abdul Adoyta At least 6 months. I have made a number of bulk orders in the past, no problem. They caught on to me now I think ahhah.

@Anthony Mancini Yeah I figure that and also the fact my prep center and billing address are different.
Reverse sourcing / sourcing in general
Hi everyone im having trouble sourcing good products ill go on keepa put in good filters and like a certain niche then have like 6 products and im gated in all or theres one that cant be found online. Also, when I try to reverse source very session leads to me deleting all my sheets becasue when I find similair stores with low reviews and but the seller IDs in keepa i get 0 products most of the time or am just completelty gated. Is this normal and does anybody have any tips ?

The Low COGS Trap That's Killing Your Margins
One of the biggest mistakes I see new Canadian OA sellers make is chasing products with a low buy cost just because the ROI looks decent on paper. Let me give you a real example. You find something for $12 CAD. Sell price is $25. After fees you're looking at maybe 30% ROI. Sounds fine right? That's roughly $2.50 profit per unit. Now one seller undercuts you by 50 cents. Your profit just dropped 20% on that single product. Two undercuts and you're basically breaking even. Here's the rule I follow: If your buy cost is under $15, you need either high ROI (50%+) or high volume (50+ units a month moving consistently). Ideally both. Low COGS + low ROI + low volume = you're working for free. The math has to make sense BEFORE you buy. Not after. When I'm scanning leads now, anything under $15 buy cost gets held to a way higher standard. It has to really justify the shelf space and the time. What's your minimum profit per unit before you'll pull the trigger on a buy? Drop it below 👇

Probably $3. I also tend to stay away from listings where the selling price is < $25. I find it hard to make money with those unless it's a really fast listing.
