Smile Want to be Dropshipper!!

I just opened an ebay account. I want to sell some goods from other companies. In order to save the time, i want to be the dropshipper so the other company can help me to ship products to my customer directly. Could you give me some choices that can provide dropship service and can pay directly on line. Thanks

I am Pete, not peter. If you want to sell other peoples goods, then THEY are the dropshipper. They dropship for you. You can call yourself the reseller, the retailer, the seller.

And yes there are thousands of sites on the internet that say they will dropship for you. Some will actually do it. Others will take your many and never ship the goods. Some will steal your customer from you by telling them to come back to the dropshipper, not to buy from you.

So you have to find an honest, trusted dropshipper. That is not as easy, since you have ot sort through all of them on the internet and make a choice with not much information.

Not many people here will tell you about the dropshippers or other sources they have found, since they do not want the competition.

You are lucky that one of them recommended me, since I am a trusted member of this forum and have been here for years. You can click my top link below to see what I offer. Just today I will be adding a number of new products to my site. So keep checking back.

And good luck to you.

It's true that finding a trusted dropshipper is not easy as there are more and more fraud business on the internet. You should verify the company with the information you have or just try some very small orders just for verification. You will see what they're offering and what they consider most during the business. A trusted dropshipper will always take service as the most important factor for the business. They focus on every order, either small one or big one. Of course you gonna make profit from the competitive wholesales prices.

Even the "try a small order first" routine is no guarantee. There are stories here and on other forums of people getting a few "sample" or low value orders just as they hoped and then getting either nothing at all or boxes of junk when they placed a sizable order.

The sad fact is that about the only way to be sure of international suppliers, not only Chinese, is to either find others here (or elsewhere) who have dealt with them or use a local, trusted business verification service.

We have a trusted member here on TWF who offers this service in China. Here's a link - www.ChinaAssociates.net
