Hi there,
let me first say how impressed I am with this forum.
I actually only found it by accident when doing some research on Dropshipping, and have spent hours reading through the pages over the last few days and have certainly learnt alot from it. So a big thank you to everyone involved.
We are starting up our own dropship business here in Australia, we hope to deal in Mobile phones, digital cameras, and I would be very interested in kids clothing and toys, we are not set in stone in what we wish to offer our clients so if anyone has anything other that they might like to offer we would be more than happy to consider it.
We are not having alot of luck with suppliers who ship this far, so was wondering if you had any advice? or if any of youre members dropship in this region.
Have after many hours of research found numerous companies that operate for the USA, and Europe, but this type of thing appears to be very young and not broadly know in our country yet.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks Ann

Ann,

Welcome to the forums!

You could try a search for 'dropshippers' as there has been alot of discussion of this subject. I'm not sure if anybody as found or come up with any in your neck of the woods.

You can also have a look at this post CHECK THIS OUT. Wholesale guide for download it's a great resource from one of the members in this forum(Tag_2k5) you may find some good sources in there that may help you, or even help you think of a work round for your problem.

Shout up if you need anymore help on this or anything else! as I'm sure there is plenty of people who are willing to help!! thats what we're here for!

thanks for the link Dave, have started to have a bit of a look through it.
Very well done, the designer should be proud.
have also been doing as you suggested and did a search on the forum.
I found a link to a list of others and there were three on there that sounded possible
has anyone dealt with the following
www.theselect.co.uk or www.grabbitt-now.co.uk or dropshippersnetwork.com
any feedback would be much appreciated
thanks heaps
Ann

Ann,

No problem, I've not dealt with any of them as I'm not into dropshipping, but people on here are and some are from Oz and maybe able to give you feedback on the sites you listed.

Also other people may have dealings with these and should leave some form of comment, if not search the forum and I think at least the first one has been discussed before.

Dave

ive had some help with the select lately.
some products give you very little or no profit, others you can make some profit with others making excellent profit.

im not yet a member of the select, and at £50 i think it is a little expensive. The person that advised me on this site is a member of this board but i can't remember his username.

ive not used the others you mentioned

how much cheaper are the prices from the ones displayed?

Have a look at their website and let me know what items you were interested in and i'll let you know, just pick a couple of items.

Heres some examples for everyone: 42 inch LCD TV listed as £1699.99 Member Price £1399.99
I-River 20GB Listed Price £224.99 Member Price £189.99, Glow Brick Listed Price £19.99 Member Price £12.99. Im sorry but that is all im prepared to give as they would happily send you some example pricing if you asked and i do not want to get in to trouble with them.

Hope that helps everybody.
