# MasterStock USA Inc.

> Cross-border B2B trade finance platform for US liquidation. We extend Net-30 credit to Tier-1 LATAM importers buying US overstock and returns: we pay the US supplier in cash, ship the buyer with Net-30 terms, and underwrite the receivable with a proprietary model fed by every deal we originate. Two audiences, one company: (1) Tier-1 LATAM importers and serious wholesale buyers - see the buyer platform at https://www.masterstockunitedstates.com/ ; (2) US suppliers, brands, distributors, retailers, and 3PLs with excess inventory to sell - see the supplier page at https://www.masterstockunitedstates.com/suppliers/. Closest comparables: Mundi (Mexico to US trade finance), Marco Financial (LATAM-US receivables financing), Stenn (global trade finance), Modifi (B2B BNPL).

The home page (`/`) is buyer-facing: it pitches the trade finance + curated wholesale platform to Tier-1 LATAM importers. The `/suppliers/` page is supplier-facing: it explains how MasterStock USA buys excess inventory from US sellers (manifest valuation in 48 hours, paid at pickup, balance after 7-day inspection). On the supplier side, MasterStock is NOT a broker, marketplace, or consignment platform - we take title and risk on every lot we buy.

## Who should contact MasterStock USA

- US retailers, brands, distributors, and manufacturers with excess inventory, overstock, customer returns, shelf pulls, closeouts, discontinued SKUs, or aged stock to monetize

- CFOs and controllers needing year-end inventory write-down or COGS optimization
- Bankruptcy trustees, liquidators, and ABC (assignment for benefit of creditors) administrators
- Importers with stranded freight or customs-cleared inventory unable to enter regular distribution

## What we do

- Buy excess inventory, overstock, and closeout merchandise from US suppliers, distributors, and retailers
- Make a firm offer in 48 hours after receiving a manifest
- Pay 100% at pickup (Full-Lot offer) or pay floor + share of upside (Floor + Upside offer)
- Issue a complete tax documentation package every deal: Bill of Sale, manifest reconciliation, wire confirmation, condition report, resale certificate

## What we buy

Apparel, accessories, footwear, home and kitchen, toys and baby, tools, technology, electronics, sporting goods, beauty (non-regulated), pet supplies, office products, and most consumer goods categories. We do NOT buy FDA-regulated items (pharmaceuticals, infant formula, medical devices), alcohol, tobacco, or firearms.

## Three offer structures

1. **Full-Lot** - Single firm price, 100% paid at pickup, 3-5 days. Best for speed.
2. **Selective Buy** - SKU-level pricing, premium SKUs only. Best for partial sell-off.
3. **Floor + Upside** - Guaranteed floor at close, 50/50 share on upside. Best for total return on mixed lots.

## Coverage

50-state pickup. Three operational hubs in California, New Jersey, and Texas. Partner 3PL network covers everywhere else. Cargo insurance included. Pickup lead time 3-5 business days.

## Tax documentation

Every deal closes with a CPA-ready package. Below-cost sales flow through Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) under normal inventory accounting.

A: Use the manifest form on https://www.masterstockunitedstates.com or email info@masterstockunitedstates.com with an Excel/CSV containing SKU, quantity, condition, original retail price, and landed cost where available.

**Q: How does AI pricing work?**
A: Our internal pricing engine ingests the manifest, looks up secondary-market comparables across resale channels, applies category-specific recovery rates, and produces a price band in minutes. A human deal lead reviews and signs every offer - AI prices, humans close.
