DG Wholesale Pallets: $110 to $1,100 a Case Pack Right Now
Last updated: September 2026
Bottom line: Closo Wholesale lists 6 live DG case packs priced $110 to $1,100 each, sourced from vetted U.S. liquidators and held in escrow until the buyer accepts delivery. That is the full spread on the live shelf today, not a single average price. See the live shelf: DG case packs for sale.
Dg wholesale buying means shopping dollar-store-style case packs — general merchandise, household goods, seasonal overstock — sold as sealed cases rather than full pallets.
A $110 case pack typically runs one narrow category, maybe 48 units of a single household item, while a $1,100 case pack spans a fuller mixed assortment with more SKUs and higher declared retail value behind it.
Why the spread runs nearly $1,000 wide
MidTenn Wholesale is the supplier currently stocking this shelf, and none of its 6 listed case packs carry a line-item manifest — 0 of 6 are manifested.
Pricing tracks case size, unit count, and condition grade instead of a published SKU list, the same way an unmanifested Walmart or Target liquidation pallet prices off weight and category rather than an itemized sheet.
2 Real Numbers: A $110 DG Case Pack Lands Near $3 a Unit, a $1,100 Case Pack Near $10
Bottom line: across the $110-to-$1,100 range Closo Wholesale lists for DG case packs, landed cost per unit runs roughly $2 to $10 once freight is added, before any resale markup. The table below runs the two live price points on the shelf through the same math so the spread stops being an abstraction.
| Cost component | $110 case pack (low end) | $1,100 case pack (high end) |
|---|---|---|
| Case pack price, live on Closo Wholesale | $110 | $1,100 |
| Estimated unit count (rule of thumb — unmanifested, 0 of 6 listings carry a line-item manifest) | ~48 units | ~120 units |
| Subtotal: price-only cost per unit | $2.29 | $9.17 |
| Freight, regional LTL (rule of thumb: $0.40-$0.60/lb, ~130 lb small case vs. ~300 lb larger case) | ~$52-$78 | ~$120-$180 |
| Freight per unit | ~$1.35 | ~$1.25 |
| Total: landed cost per unit, all-in | ~$3.64 | ~$10.42 |

Run the high end forward: a $1,100 case pack at 120 units lands at $9.17 a unit on price alone, plus roughly $1.25 in freight, for about $10.42 landed.
Dollar-store-style general merchandise of this kind typically resells one-off in the $18 to $28 range depending on category, so a $22 average resale price against a $10.42 landed cost clears about 53% gross margin before marketplace fees and before accounting for units that do not sell at full price.
Run the low end the same way: a $110 case at 48 units lands at $2.29 on price plus about $1.35 freight, or $3.64 a unit — resold even at a conservative $8 average, that is a 55% margin, so the low end is not automatically the worse buy on a percentage basis, only on total case value moved.
Why the low end and the high end price so differently
MidTenn Wholesale, the supplier currently stocking this shelf, prices unmanifested DG case packs off case size and declared retail value rather than a published SKU sheet — the same convention used across the dollar-store liquidation category generally.
A $110 case pack is a narrow, single-category run, maybe one household item at 48 units; a $1,100 case pack is a fuller mixed assortment with more SKUs and a higher declared retail value behind it, which is why the per-unit price only drops from $2.29 to roughly $9.17 rather than falling in a straight line with the case price.
Buyers new to dg wholesale sourcing should treat the unit-count figures above as a rule of thumb, not a guarantee — confirm actual count against the listing photos before paying, since none of the 6 live case packs on this shelf ship with a written manifest.
| Format | Typical lot price | Per unit (rule of thumb) | Who it suits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small case pack | ~$110-$300 | $2-$4 | First-time buyers testing sell-through before scaling up |
| Mixed case pack | ~$400-$800 | $4-$7 | Sellers with an existing dollar-store-category customer base |
| Full assortment case pack | ~$800-$1,100 | $7-$10 | Buyers with warehouse space and multi-category resale channels |

3 Places Margin Disappears Before a DG Case Pack Ever Resells
Bottom line: on a $1,100 DG case pack, freight surprises alone can erase 10-15 percentage points of the roughly 53% gross margin the unit math implies. The math in the cost breakdown above assumes a clean run — full sell-through, no damage, freight quoted before checkout.
Real orders rarely hit all three, and dg wholesale buyers who skip the gaps end up disappointed by a case that looked fine on paper.
The first gap is freight quoted late. A buyer who checks out on price alone and finds out shipping only after the order is placed can watch a $52 freight estimate turn into $95 once a carrier weighs the actual case — on a $110 case pack that is the difference between a 53% margin and closer to 35%.
Closo Wholesale settles freight through the same escrow flow as the case price, so the fix is procedural, not financial: confirm the shipped weight and carrier quote before releasing funds, not after the case lands.
Unmanifested cases mean unit count is a guess, not a fact
None of the 6 live DG case packs on this shelf carry a line-item manifest — 0 of 6 are manifested, per the current listing data. That means the ~48-unit and ~120-unit figures used earlier are rule-of-thumb estimates, not guarantees from MidTenn Wholesale or any other seller.
A buyer who counts on 120 units and receives 95 has effectively paid $9.17 a unit for what turns out to be $11.58 a unit — a 26% cost overrun that no freight line item explains. Photograph and count on arrival, before the resale price gets set against an assumed unit count.
The third gap is condition grading on general merchandise that was never sorted by SKU.
A mixed $1,100 assortment can include a subset of units with shelf wear, expired promotional packaging, or damaged retail boxes that will not move at the $22 average resale price used in the margin math — sellers who have run several of these cases report writing off 5% to 12% of units as unsellable or clearance-only, which needs to be built into the resale price before the order is placed, not discovered after.
7 Checks Before You Pay for a DG Case Pack
- Confirm the live price against the shelf, not a screenshot — Closo Wholesale's 6 DG case packs currently run $110 to $1,100, and that range shifts as lots sell, so re-check before checkout.
- Ask the supplier, currently MidTenn Wholesale on this shelf, for actual case weight rather than accepting a listed estimate; a 130-pound assumption that turns out to be 210 pounds can add $40-$60 in freight you did not price in.
- Treat any stated unit count as a rule of thumb, since 0 of the 6 live listings carry a line-item manifest — request current photos of the case contents before you pay, not after.
- Run the landed-cost math yourself: divide the case price by your own conservative unit estimate, then add the freight quote, before comparing to a resale price you already know for that category.
- Hold funds in Closo escrow until delivery is accepted — do not release payment on a tracking scan alone, since that is before you have opened the case.
- Budget 5% to 12% of units as unsellable or clearance-only on unsorted general merchandise cases, and set your resale price to still clear margin after that write-off.
- Start with a case near the $110-$300 low end on a first dg wholesale order from a new supplier, and only move up toward the $1,100 end once one full cycle has confirmed count, condition, and freight cost.
If a step turns up a mismatch
Photograph the discrepancy — short count, damage, wrong category — before the escrow window closes, and raise it through Closo support rather than resolving it directly with the supplier off-platform.
Run Your Own Numbers Against the 6 Live DG Case Packs Before You Buy
Bottom line: with case prices running $110 to $1,100 and landed cost per unit near $3.64 to $10.42 once freight is added, the next step is pricing a specific case pack against your own resale channel, not the averages above. Pull up the live shelf on Closo Wholesale, pick one case pack — a $110 entry if this is a first order from MidTenn Wholesale, or a $1,100 full assortment if you already have sell-through data for this category — and run the case price and freight quote through the landed-cost math before you check out.
What to compare it against
Price the same case against your last general-merchandise order, at whatever margin that order actually cleared, not a target margin you hope for.
A dg wholesale buy that lands under $4 a unit and resells even at a conservative $9 average is a workable first order; one that lands over $10 a unit needs a resale price near $22 to hold the same margin, so check that ceiling exists in your market before paying.
