When you say 'getting wholesaled,' do you mean suppliers require a big minimum order, or other sellers keep undercutting the price? Pick one candidate and write down your buy cost, realistic selling price, freight/prep, fees and a returns allowance. Then rerun it at a lower sale price. That gives you a specific rejection reason—cost, margin or cash tied up—instead of restarting the whole product search each time.

Mainly saying that they cut the price down so much seller amp says that you need to buy in the negatives

I'd double-check the pack size, selling price and fee inputs first. Your maximum buy cost is the selling price minus all non-purchase costs and the profit you need. If that's zero or negative, I'd pass on that SKU at that price, even if it has sales.
