    Hi,

    Is there anyway to have an online shop integrated into my website yet another company handles all the shipping, payments, refunds, complaints etc. and pays me a percentage based on the profit from the sale of items?

    Is there a term I should be searching for?

    I have two different areas of interest, poultry - chicken feed, housing, fencing etc. and Poker - Chips, cards etc.

    Any ideas?

    Search for dropshipping and dropshippers, or you can look for affiliate programs as well.

    yes drop shipping is the way to go , but you have to be careful. I would suggest you read up on dropshipping as there's quite a bit you need to know.

    Amazon might be able to help you also, at least with the poker supplies, don't know about the rest.

    You could either use a dropshipper, or even hire an employee to do the work.

    you can check out dropshippers at wholesalecentral.com. Look for the "dropshippers" link.
