Whether you call it invoicing, a app for jobs, or a invoicing system — most vintage resellers in Champaign cobble together QuickBooks, Wave, Square and similar apps. That's $684/year in SaaS payments. In half a decade at today's prices, that stack costs $3,420.
Nexa lets you break free from monthly fees. Your CRM, invoicing, calendar tool, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — in a single app. One click books a client. One click generates an invoice. No switching tabs. No duct-tape integrations. Zero integration overhead. It's a one-time purchase — cut costs the moment you switch. For vintage resellers in Champaign weighing the switch, the 30-day money-back guarantee covers the migration window — you can run Nexa in parallel with your existing subscriptions, verify the workflow handles your real client load, and only cancel the monthly tools once you are confident the data and processes have settled in.
You hit two estate sales before 8am and spent $340 on mid-century pieces. You've got a booth at the antique mall ($450/month rent) and an Etsy shop. Half your sales are cash at the booth with no receipt trail. Your Etsy shop has 15 orders to ship this week. You need to track cost basis on 200+ items across physical and online sales, and your 'system' is a notebook in your car.
That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.
Every one of those was bought once and earns its keep for years. Nexa is priced the same way: $279 once, and it keeps working whether business is busy or slow.

Open on Reddit →We build a vintage reseller's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for a vintage reseller — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.
Found something out of date? Prices change and we don't catch every move the day it happens. This guide is published and maintained by the Nexa team; if a figure here is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it — getting it right matters more to us than the sale.
