Focus on the Money Makers
For the best resale intel, prioritize these shots:
- •Brand Labels: Get a clear, readable shot of the logo or tag. This is crucial for BOLO detection.
- •Model Numbers: For electronics and appliances, the model number sticker is the best way to get an accurate value.
- •Condition Markers: Capture any damage or "like new" features that affect resale price.
- •Lighting: Use your phone's flash if the sale is in a dark garage or basement.
Scan Whole Sections
Don't be afraid to take a wider shot of a whole shelf of media or a rack of clothes. The AI can identify multiple items and brands in a single image, saving you time when speed matters.
