No one wakes up in the morning thinking “today, I’m gonna flip a toilet,” but effective resellers should always wake up thinking “I’m ready to flip a toilet.” When an opportunity like this falls into your lap, you just have to move fast and ask questions later. These toilets are worth close to $2,000, but RC Elite members were able to score them for $270. Even reselling them at a deep discount from MSRP will still guarantee hundreds of dollars in profit.

So, Why Resell a Toilet?

TOTO is the world’s largest plumbing manufacturer and a brand with serious credibility in the premium bath space. The Drake Transitional Washlet+ S7 combo that surfaced in yesterday’s deal pairs TOTO’s Drake two-piece toilet with the S7 Washlet bidet seat. The Drake features TOTO’s Tornado Flush system, a rimless design with dual nozzles that creates a centrifugal wash action. The

The S7 Washlet seat is TOTO’s flagship bidet offering, fully automated with an illuminated remote, five spray settings, heated seat, instantaneous water heating, and eWater+ technology that mists and cleans the bowl before and after use. This is a swanky-ass toilet.

At full MSRP the combo retails for $1,844, broken down as $640 for the Drake toilet and $1,260 for the S7 Washlet seat sold separately. With bidet adoption rising nationally and an ever-present need for toilets in remodles and new builds, these are both products with consistent demand.

How the Flip Works

With the $270 entry point, virtually any method here leads to profit. The most obvious is selling the toilet and bidet together under MSRP, locally. At 96 pounds these toilets are difficult to ship, so selling them locally on Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist for $800 to $1,000 nets solid profits and sidesteps shipping fees.

There’s also a parting-out angle worth considering. The bidet seat is considerably more valuable than the toilet and much lighter, so it can listed for sale online at a price closer to MSRP. S7 Bidets routinely resell on eBay for $800 to $1,000, and that’s not even counting any additional profits from flipping a brand new toilet separately.

This deal was exclusive to Amazon Business accounts, which is a free tier of Amazon that unlocks business-only pricing, quantity discounts, and exclusive deals not visible to regular shoppers. Signing up takes a few minutes and requires a business email and some basic company information. You do not need a formal LLC or incorporated business to qualify. A sole proprietorship works fine.

Deals like this are not common, but they’re not one-of-a-kind either. Amazon Business exclusive pricing errors and clearance events pop up across categories, most often in home improvement, electronics, and commercial supplies. Resellers with the account active are simply in the door when they do. Resellers without one aren’t.

Bottom Line

This was a weird and lucrative flip for anyone who caught it. Local reselling on home improvement items is an undercrowded lane with real margin when the right deal surfaces. Having an Amazon Business account active means you’re eligible when the next one does.

There’s one clear takeaway for resellers: be versatile. It’s far too easy to get stuck in the usual routine flips like trading cards and sneakers. You might not expect or even realize that reselling something like a toilet can be profitable, but this flip proves that it can be downright lucrative.
