Can a shopper be successful in saving money by taking advantage of wholesale deals? Yes. The first thing of course, is for him or her to look for people who want to buy the same thing as him or her. For example, if a shopper wants to buy wholesale sunglasses, he or she may look for ten other people who want to buy the same item. This is pretty hard to do, especially if the shopper is aiming to score a deal with an expensive item. This scenario gets more difficult if a shopper wants to buy a very particular item.  For example, what if a shopper wants a discounted wholesale price on aviator sunglasses with red frames manufactured by a particular company? To amass 10 or 20 people who want to buy the same thing with the same specs is almost an impossible undertaking.

This is why there are websites that offer wholesale deals for people who are considering buying something for a lower price. Shoppers can sign up for an account with these websites and see if there is something they are interested in. They can sign up to buy an item at a lower cost, provided a certain number of people also sign up for the same item.

The downside of wholesale deals is that there are a good number of incidents when only a few people sign up to buy an item, which calls off the deal. Moreover, these deals are only available for a limited time. So, for example, if an item is not signed up for by 10 people within ten days, the deal is called off, which could be a shame because the prices on these items when a deal is realized are substantially lower. But then, there are also a lot of websites that offer wholesale sunglasses and have prices set at a particular amount per number of the same item. Since the prices are lower when purchased in bulk, the buyer can then strategize on how to sell these items for a profit, or use it all by himself.
