Live selling on Whatnot requires excessive time for inventory preparation and shipping with very low average profit per item.

Whatnot compresses the workload into a few days with low margins, while Mercari allows slower, less intensive selling. No solution specifically optimizes inventory preparation and shipping for low-margin items in a live-selling context.
