Commercial commodity

Commercial commodity is an item or an object that a person buys with the intention of selling it again. It is not necessary for a person to be a trader or a businessman for an object to become a commercial commodity. The intention to sell it when buying a certain thing, suffices to make it become a commercial commodity. It is not necessary to be a trader by profession. For example, a person bought something at a bargain when it was being sold at a very cheap price but he had the intention to resell it at the time of buying it. Hence, this commodity is a commercial commodity. However, if he had intention to use it and if in case, he receives a good price, he would sell it, then it would not become a commercial commodity. That is, if he does not have a fixed intention when he buys a commodity, then it will not be a commercial commodity.
