What This Means for Electronics Resellers

You bought a pallet of 50 returned electronics for $800. Half are sellable, 15 need repair, and 10 are junk. You need to allocate cost basis across items, track repair parts, and list on 3 platforms. An eBay buyer opens a return on a $120 monitor — that's your profit from 3 other sales gone. Your spreadsheet is 30 tabs and you dread tax season.

Electronics Resellers deal with unique challenges that generic software was not built for: Tracking cost basis on bulk lot purchases with mixed items. Returns and refunds eating into thin margins. Platform fee differences across eBay, Amazon, and Facebook Marketplace. Testing and grading used electronics takes time that's hard to bill for. QuickBooks charges $55/month on top of these daily realities. The median electronics reseller earns $40,000/year — $660/year in software subscriptions is a significant percentage of that income, paid every year, forever.

Nexa is $279 once. Invoicing, scheduling, CRM, time tracking, accounting — all connected, built for electronics resellers. You own it like you own your Testing equipment (multimeter, monitor tester).
