He shared how he made $557K net profit selling luxury handbags, and why building systems is the real game—no matter what category you're in. We covered how he connects directly with eBay and Poshmark execs to avoid account issues, how he uses liquidation sites like B-Stock, and why category only matters 30%—the rest is all systems and execution.
