    im thinking of setting up a freelance sourcing and dropshipping/mailing service from the Philippines. anything that might be cheaper from here. printed shirts or maybe product brochures and catalogs...does anyone here have a similar operation going? i have done sourcing work and supplied fashion accessories for small design companies ( sweden and turkey ) before. so it might be a good idea for me. i would appreciate some help.

    Yes it would be good idea but your price must be competitive enough to compete with the china supplier.
    Currently i'm using china supplier to supply me around 3000 shirt/month and the price is a lot cheaper compare to philipine

    hi mentos, thanks for your input. yes, i would assume china has the lowest prices. do they dropship to individual customers for you, store your goods, etc. send flyers along with your merchandise etc.? can you tell me more? this should be interesting. i really doubt i can compete with china prices but how about if i cater to smaller MOQ sellers? so i can at least give it a little more personalized service etc. offer small quantity requirements for private labeling/blind shipping of sorts.
