What a pallet of toys actually sells for

Split the 7,278 closed toy lots by published unit count and the pallet-shaped supply separates from single-item listings. Multi-unit means two or more published units; it can describe a small bundle, a pallet or a truckload. A category label alone does not tell you which one you are bidding on.

Window: 2026-04-22 to 2026-10-24, measured 2026-10-24. Bid and per-unit medians use the 3,416 priced multi-unit lots and 2,234 priced single-item lots; unit-count medians use all 3,814 multi-unit and 2,616 single-item lots. For single-item lots, per-unit price is the lot price by construction. The live archive grew during measurement: the shape counts including lots without a published unit count total 7,279, one more than the 7,278-lot headline population; these measured figures are preserved.

A further 849 closed toy lots had no published unit count; 632 were priced, with a $6 median final bid, and sit outside the shape split.

Across the 3,416 priced multi-unit toy lots from 2026-04-22 to 2026-10-24, the middle 50% closed between $100 and $1,275 per lot, and between $1.38 and $8.57 per unit. The $500 lot median is a center inside that spread, not a quote for a particular pallet.

Across the 2,234 priced single-item toy lots in the same window, the middle 50% closed between $5.00 and $11.00. Folding those listings into a pallet comparison changes the question. Start with the published count and contents before comparing prices.

Each eligible lot's per-unit figure divides its last observed bid by its published unit count, then the median is taken across those figures. Dividing the lot median by the unit-count median does not recover the per-unit median, and dividing the lot and per-unit medians does not recover a typical unit count. These are separate summaries, and unit counts include unpriced lots.

The platform split below covers priced toy lots on platforms with at least 150 priced toy lots, from 2026-04-22 to 2026-10-24. Each row gives its own priced denominator; smaller channels remain outside the table.

Measured 2026-10-24. Platform medians mix lot shapes; read them with the shape split above. For fixed-price 888 Lots, the recorded figure is the last observed asking price before departure, which may reflect a purchase or a delisting, never a confirmed sale.

B-Stock is the largest toy channel in this split, with an $802 median across 2,101 priced toy lots; QuickBidz has a $5 median across 1,181 priced toy lots. The same category spans single items, bundles, pallets and truckloads. Each channel brings a different lot shape, so this is a supply-mix comparison rather than a ranking of where an equivalent pallet costs least.

For the wider channel populations, read the B-Stock study. The category siblings, what a pallet of apparel actually sells for, what a pallet of furniture actually sells for and what a pallet of beauty items actually sells for, use the same separation between single items and multi-unit supply, with their own dated windows.

Final bid means the last observed bid before the lot left the feed, possibly a no-bid ask, never a confirmed sale. All bid figures are bid-only, before buyer premium, taxes and freight or pickup costs. The medians describe the observed population; they are not bid targets.

For a specific toy lot, read the manifest, condition and contents alongside the published unit count. Add the applicable premium, taxes and freight or pickup costs to your bid before dividing by that count. A low bid per published unit does not establish how many pieces you can resell. Toys are the most seasonal category in the archive: Q4 holiday demand distorts any median. This April-to-October window ends before the holiday surge, so Q4 closings may read higher.
