StockX Direct Shipping

What is StockX Direct Shipping?

Direct is RestocksAIO's internal label for the seller-direct fulfilment route offered through StockX's invite-only Verified Seller Program. An approved seller ships an eligible item directly to the buyer instead of sending that order through a StockX Verification Center first.

This means:

• Account-specific economics — Use the payout and charges shown for your approved account. StockX does not publish a universal special fee discount for every Verified Seller.
• Faster delivery — Buyers receive their items sooner since the package doesn't need to make a stop at a StockX verification center.
• Separate market data — The direct marketplace has its own set of bids and asks, which can differ significantly from the standard marketplace.

Who can use Direct Shipping?

StockX Direct is not available to all sellers. To qualify, you typically need:

• High sales volume — StockX offers this program to sellers who consistently move large quantities of items.
• Low cancellation rate — Your account must maintain a very low cancellation rate, demonstrating reliability.
• Good seller metrics — Overall seller performance, including shipping speed and accuracy, is taken into account.

Listing Categories

RestocksAIO supports three listing categories for StockX:

The Category column in your Listings View, Inventory, and Bricker Mode tables shows which category each item belongs to.

How to list items as Direct

You can set the listing mode when adding items:

1. Open the Item Addition Window (Add Item button)
2. In the Mode column, select DIRECT from the dropdown
3. Use the header dropdown at the top of the Mode column to batch-set all items to Direct at once
4. Proceed with Inventory + Listing or Quick List as usual

You can also set the mode via CSV Import by using DIRECT in the Listing Mode column.

If you want the same StockX item listed as both categories, select Resale + Direct in the Mode dropdown, or use RESALE/DIRECT in CSV import. RestocksAIO expands that row into separate Resale and Direct listings when you submit it.

Running Direct and Resale at the same time

Some sellers keep both Direct and Resale active for the same SKU and size to compare which route sells first.

RestocksAIO supports this setup, but it is important to understand that:

• Direct and Resale do not share the same market data.
• Bricker Mode keeps them separated so pricing decisions stay accurate for each category.
• A sale on one side does not automatically mean the other side should remain active.

Because of that, the tool can now treat the two categories as distinct controller identities instead of merging them together.

Delete the opposite category after a sale

If you run both Direct and Resale for the same item, you may want the opposite category to be cleared automatically once one side sells.

You can enable this in:

• Settings > Bricker Mode using Delete matching Direct/Resale category on sale

When enabled:

• Selling a Direct listing can remove the matching Resale controller for the same product and size.
• Selling a Resale listing can remove the matching Direct controller for the same product and size.
• Consign/Flex tasks are not affected.

This helps avoid leaving duplicate exposure live after one StockX category has already sold the item.

Direct Pricing in Bricker Mode

When Direct Seller Mode is enabled, the Bricker Mode monitor uses StockX's direct market data as the primary source for pricing indicators:

The tool prioritizes direct market data first. If a direct value is unavailable (zero), it automatically falls back to standard, then top-level market data. This ensures you always have the most accurate pricing for your specific seller type.

How to enable Direct Seller Mode

You can toggle StockX Direct Seller Mode in three places:

1. Settings > Accounts > Site Options — Applies to the account profile. Look for "Enable StockX Buyer-Direct Seller Mode".
2. Bricker Mode > Edit Task — Toggle per-task when editing a StockX bricker controller.
3. Bricker Mode > Mass Edit — Apply the setting across all selected controllers at once.

Why does this matter for pricing?

Direct sellers operate in a separate marketplace pool. The lowest ask and highest bid in the direct market can be significantly different from the standard market. Without this setting enabled, the tool would use standard market prices to make decisions — which may not reflect the actual competition and payouts in your direct marketplace.

Enabling Direct Seller Mode ensures:

• Your prices are competitive against other direct sellers, not the general pool.
• Payout calculations use the account-specific Direct market data and charges available to the approved seller.
• Bricker Mode makes accurate undercut/match decisions based on the right market data.
