Hi Jarek, came across your page from BowTieBroke.

Extremely interesting. I have a decent job at a consulting firm in India but escaping the 9-8 (no 9-5 in developing countries) is the end goal.

Do you have examples of such online arbitrage working in India? Purchasing things online and then shipping and selling to US and Europe (from India) would ramp up the shipment costs and nullify the arbitrage, wouldn't it?

Yes it would. Your goal would be to sell within the US from India. See how far this thread gets you: https://twitter.com/bowtiedmahi/status/1610304926772776961

Thanks for the response Jarek. Quite a bit of paperwork required to start off selling in US. But the thread provided info that India is a place for registered Amazon sellers, so that is a start!
