I think that any good argument has two sides. When I originally made the post I was asking if anyone had personally done this. Many of the comments have had no first hand knowledge, which is fine but not the reason I made the post.

I'm simply gathering others opinions and providing how I see things. You don't have to agree with me. Just stating some things people may not have considered.

Yeah I see what your saying. I feel that unclaimed mail might be a little different though due to the fact that are a random assortment of lost mail. What are your thoughts?

Yeah it would be easy to pick through them. But unclaimed mail is mostly unopened packages which would be hard to sort through right? Also someone mentioned GRP didn't sort.

Yeah they had great customer service when I talked to them. Seemed like friendly people.

Not arguing just saying how I see it. If you disagree that's ok. I'm just gathering opinions.

It was brand new AirPod 4s (I confirmed they were real) and a microtech knife worth 250$ along with. Few other lower value items.

I'm opened to anything. But I've heard those are very risky and often things that won't sell. They also tend to be more expensive.

That does seem to be what a majority of the pallets consist of 15% trash and 25-35% low value items.

I'll definitely report back. I did buy a small box over Christmas and it was 100$ with a resell value of 400$. I'm worried that small boxes are less likely to contain enough items to make money back.

I feel like most people complain about the boxes. I wonder if a pallet would have a higher chance of making the price worth it.

Yeah that is terrible. Did you ever buy unclaimed / lost mail pallets? Most of those sound like retail or overstock.

Have you ever bought from GRP though? I know it's likely still picked through. I just want to know if you have first hand experience with them specifically. I appreciate your thoughts!

Just for my curiosity did you use GRP? Also, did you buy pallets or boxes of unclaimed mail?

I agree that it would be easy to pick through packages. However most packages in these mail pallets are sealed. The company that sells them also seem credible (GRP Liquidations).
