I teach people how to fix bikes and stuff at various events in a freelance capacity and give a lot of recommendations of what basic tools and spares to have on hand at home and while riding. For most people it's just levers, an inner tube and a mini pump (sometimes a spanner for wheels). I've had feedback that people would like to be able to buy stuff there and then to ride away with. I actually really rate a lot of decathlon stuff but don't think I'd be able to put in a bulk order to sell on, and obviously if anyone came back with warranty requests I'd be out of luck. What's a smart way of going about this? Does one need an accojnt with a distributor to be a reseller, does one generally need to make purchases of c. 100 units at once? Just at a bit of a loss of what to do.
Obviously this would be with the OK of the person I'm working for at the time, with me taking payment in cash/PayPal.
