Why This Matters for Pallet Liquidation Resellers
You just unboxed a $1,200 Amazon returns pallet. 80 items, manifested at $4,800 retail. Half are opened, a quarter are damaged, and you need to test, photograph, and list every single one. Three weeks later you've sold 40 items for $1,600 total. After eBay fees, shipping, and the 8 returns, did this pallet profit? You think so. You're not sure.
Pallet Liquidation Resellers face unique challenges: Allocating cost basis across 100+ mixed items from a single pallet. High return rates on items sold 'as-is' that buyers dispute. Managing cash flow when pallets cost $500-$5000 upfront. Tracking which pallets were profitable and which were duds. On top of all that, QuickBooks charges $55/month ($660/year) — money that comes directly from your revenue. The median pallet liquidation reseller earns $35,000/year. Software at $660/year is a meaningful percentage of that income, every year, forever. And you do not own anything.
Your Pallet jack and warehouse space is yours. You bought it once. Nexa works the same way — $279 once for invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, and full accounting. All connected. All offline-capable. You own it like you own your tools.

Where pallet liquidation resellers actually talk shop
Is Nexa really a QuickBooks replacement for pallet liquidation resellers?
For solo operators and small teams (1-5), yes. Nexa includes invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, task management, and full accounting. QuickBooks may be better if you have a large team (10+) or need enterprise-specific features.
$279 seems like a lot.
It's $7.75/month over 3 years. QuickBooks is $55/month — that's $2,214 over 3 years. Which is more? And if you'd rather split it, Nexa is also available as 3 payments of $99.
Can I pay in installments?
Yes. Nexa is $279 as a one-time payment, or 3 payments of $99 ($297 total). Either way it's a one-time purchase — no subscription, no recurring fees ever.
What if I don't like it?
30-day money-back guarantee. Full refund. If Nexa doesn't save you $500 in year one, you get every penny back.
Can I import my QuickBooks data?
Export your data from QuickBooks as CSV, import into Nexa in about 5 minutes.
