Median eBay price ÷ clearance

We compared the lowest in-store clearance price for 97 Home Depot clearance products against their median eBay sold price, after eBay's roughly 13% fees. Only products with real sold listings count; asking prices and obvious mismatches (more than 3x the original price) are excluded.

That's 97 of the 931 clearance products in stock right now. The rest have too few eBay sales to price, so treat this as a sample of items people actually resell.

Shipping is not included and varies a lot by item; large or heavy items can erase the margin.

How we measured this

Spotted checks Home Depot store inventory daily for the clearance items it tracks (about 900 to 1,300 products at roughly 2,000 stores). These numbers use the newest check for each store and item from the last 3 days, counting an item only when the store had units on hand at a price below its original price. They describe the clearance items Spotted tracks, not every yellow tag in a store. eBay prices are medians of sold listings collected by Spotted; profit = sold median minus about 13.25% eBay fees minus the lowest clearance price, before shipping.
