You've manufactured 13,000 transmission bearings too many. At another time, this may not have been a bad thing. However, in this economy, excess is deadly. All of those wasted hours, materials, and utilities, gone. You've called around, and none of your clients need any bearings, you've already filled their orders. So what are you going to do with 13,000 transmission bearings? The positive is, you still have the bearings; they can be sold. But who's going to find the people who are looking for bearings?

Well, it would be great to be able to get rid of all 13,000 of them at once, so how can I do it? Oddly enough, you can actually search the net. There are lots of shops online that buy surplus and bulk orders of random stuff like transmission bearings, the danger here is that they may want to only pay an amount that cuts too deep into your profit margin. But it's still a great way to clear out the warehouse for the set of orders.

You can also have a stock clearance sale to get rid of the overstock. Simply make a few phone calls and send out some emails to some sales reps and find out if they have a need for the bearings. Offer them a clearance discount and maybe even give them a bulk discount. Just as long as those stock bearings are gone, it matters not to you.


Right now, the shelves that those bearings are sitting on are of more value to you than the bearings themselves. Because you're unfinished orders could be housed there. So you have to sell those bearings as soon as possible, and be happy to make some money off of them. Transmission bearings are selling fairly well, with the recent increase by people to keep their current vehicle. More and more auto shops and service centers are doing more and more transmission rebuilds, which means they'll need more and more parts. Selling the bearings at a clearance will help entice the buyers to take a look at the types of discounts you're offering. Since the service centers do need the bearings to do the work, you may be able to get the most money for you products with them, as opposed to a reseller.

You can also try selling them to an auto parts supply store or chain. The bearings are going to have to be bought by someone, with the increase in demand, why not a retailer? They'll offer you a fair and honest price for them, and all you'll have to do is deliver the parts to their store.


If you're having problems selling your bearing stock clearance, there are alternative routes to getting them out of your warehouse and onto someone's store shelves. By offering incentives like discounts, bulk discounts, and clearances, you can give them the products that they want, at a great price, and perhaps even make some new permanent customers. Alternatively, selling to a reseller is a great way to free up some warehouse space and make a quick profit as well.
