The Stanley craze might be over
New Bride of Frankenstein props are available at Home Depot for $279
Popular designs will usually sell out in late summer and resell in October
These props are already flipping for up to $500
It might be August, but smart resellers are always looking ahead for their next flip. Home Depot has begun stocking their newest Halloween decorations, and the most popular designs are already selling out. In fact, we’ve started to see resellers securing remarkable products well ahead of the Halloween season, which is pretty unusual. Here’s what to keep an eye out for next time you’re at Home Depot.
If you’re anything like us, you love the Halloween season. Fake blood, black cats, grotesque chainsaw massacres displayed in suburban lawns; it’s the perfect holiday.
And resellers are especially big fans. Every year, certain costumes and decorations go viral on social media, and people lose their minds when they go out of stock. It’s not uncommon to see resellers turning triple digit profits on the hottest Halloween costumes and props when October rolls around.
Which brings us to today’s topic. One decoration is already picking up viral attention: these six foot Bride of Frankenstein props sold at Home Depot. With LED-illuminated eyes, full motion, and four spooky phrases, it’s a must-have for unsettling trick-or-treaters.
They’re available for sale at Home Depot locations or delivery for $279, but many stores have already sold out of them. You’ll need to check your local locations for stock through Home Depot’s website.
It’s not surprising to see viral Halloween decorations sell out, even in August. Now is the best time to start stocking up before the season is in full swing. What’s surprising is what happened next.
Not only are these props sold out at most locations, they’ve actually begun to resell for remarkable profits. We usually don’t see this start to happen until October, much closer to Halloween itself.
Right now, Home Depot’s six foot Bride of Frankenstein Halloween prop is reselling for up to $500, netting resellers around $200 in profit depending on fees. Considering that you can buy multiple props in one trip, this is a very profitable flip to loop.
It’s worth noting that these are a large and bulky item, with sealed boxes measuring 26″ by 26″ by 15″ and weighing over thirty pounds. This makes them ideal for local sales, although many resellers are still turning solid profits shipping them.
This is looking like a juicy flip, and there’s still plenty of time to get in on it. Keep an eye out for restocks near you, and we recommend buying as many as you can when you get the opportunity. Even if the market cools down, we expect to see them get even more popular as Halloween draws nearer.
Make sure you’re subscribed to our newsletter if you want to be alerted to other seasonal flips. As the year winds down, we’ll be covering more profitable products for Halloween, Thanksgiving, and especially Christmas. See you on the next one.
