Infuriating to think that all these places can sell products with a 50% discount and still make money. The rest of the time how much are they raking in? But we are all scraping by and gotta do what we gotta do. Thanks for letting me vent.

    It depends, sometimes sales are at a loss for the company to simply clear out stock that they were not selling quickly enough.

      So technically a direct loss, but definitely not a direct loss after tax breaks, and accounting for warehouse space freeing up in many cases. The warehouse space is worth more than the product past a certain age in most businesses.

        Yup, stagnant inventory is a huge drain on resources.
