Overview

On Friday, 22nd September, eBay UK ran a flash sale of 150 refurbished smartphones for just £0.99 each. Models included iPhone 14, Google Pixel, and Samsung Galaxy — all modern units with strong secondhand market value.

It was a “1-per-account” drop, and while competition was fierce, House of Resell members were prepped early and ready with automation tips, link refresh strategies, and Discord monitor alerts. With each unit reselling for £100+, this was one of the highest ROI flips in the community — essentially free money.

How the Flip Played Out

Promo page announced on Discord the day before, full prep guide shared.

Members logged into eBay by 9:30 AM; refreshing started at 9:55 AM.

Only 150 units available; site was laggy, but some still succeeded.

Resell potential varied by model — iPhone 14 flips fetched £180+, others ~£100–120.

Immediate relisting on eBay, Facebook Marketplace, and Swappa.

Lowest risk possible — total cost per item: £0.99.

Final Thoughts

This one was simple: Be fast, be early, and be ready to flip. With only 150 phones available, not everyone landed — but those who did secured massive ROI for nearly no cost. It’s these stealth promos that separate watchers from flippers.
