Wholesale and Dropship
There seems to be a rise in wholesale dropshippers who charge a fee to join..and don't display their prices on their website, but suck you in with false tesimonials and claims,, and when you join you realise you have to sell at almost high street prices to make a profit.
Ive been done twice like this.. Eg paid a membership fee only to find out that the wholesale price of their dvd was £9 and its only £12.99 in the shop, plus I had to pay £1.59 postage, leaving me with a grand total of £2.40 profit IF I sold at full retail price.. what a con.
I know if I buy at their dodgy wholesale prices and dropship it from eBay, I'll end up losing money. as It would probably sell for only £8. These people use google adwords which match your query - eg you type anything like wholesale and dropshipper / dropshipping etc and your exact keyword match comes up in the adword ad..
Thats the last time I pay a membership to join a dropship website.. I will stick to ones which display their prices and its free to join..although you have to deposit money into an account before you can dropship, but thats fair enough.
