Frustration

Alphasales · 15-04-2009, 11:16 AM

You have probably heard this all before im sure, i have just signed up to a good dropshipper in my eyes and alot of others. So i have put the items on ebay for the lowest i can with making atleast a couple of quid profit. Then i come across an item (which i know i should of searched before hand to see my competition, but i did a few days ago and did not come across this.) which is the exact same as mine but a tenner cheaper, ironicly cheaper than my dropshippers.
Now i am going to have to find a better dropshippers that i can actually make money off.
Sorry for the rant its just frustrating.

If you stated the item you are talking about, maybe we can assist you with finding the best paid advertiser with this forum.

I doubt very much whether a dropshipper is making a tenner per item - it is likely that your competitor is clearing loss leading stock or is, in fact, from Hong Kong or somewhere similar?

More info would be helpful

Even on ebay it is not always the cheapest that gets the sale.

Why would you only want to make a couple of £ profit per item. I don't understand why people bother for that.

Is it within the rules of the forum for me to post the links?
Cheers

I have numerous items where i only make a couple of £ profit.

A couple of £'s worth of profit, a couple of times a day, on a couple of items quickly adds up to a nice tidy profit.

Its working for me anyway
