Hey all, running a business with a dropshipper is something i have always wanted to get into, however could never find a dropshipper that i know wont just take my money and run. Since i found DP i know there are many experienced people here, who know a hell of alot more than i do! Does anyone know of a dropshipper that is reliable? im looking for one that has computer gizmos and gadgets. if you could PM me more info about the dropshipper, then it would be much appreciated. thanks in advance!
Sometimes, the best way to find a dropshipper is to let google help you find one. For instance... Let's say you had a site geared toward the Hydroponic Gardening market. Go to Google and search for: Hydroponics Dropshipping HomeGrown Hydroponics, the 2nd and 3rd result in Google for me, is a store that sells hydroponic gardening systems and supplies. They also have a drop shipping program. Just about every market has businesses who dropship. You don't have to necessarily sign up to a dropshipping network like Doba just to drop ship products.
Finding a good dropshipper of electronic gadgets is going to be tough. Try www.sourcingmap.com they dropship direct from China. For name-brand electronics however you are going to be out of luck with dropshipping.
Sign up for an Amazon Associates account. They will drop ship anything that you sell for them. Amazon offers a wide range of banners and products. Just about anything you want to sell can be found there.
Doba has membership monthly fee, they used to have a good price point before but it seems they're a lil bit greedy now. Worldwide Brands don't do dropshipping, they simply selling information or databsases of dropshippers and wholesalers.
how about dhgate and beltal? the problem i see with dropshipping its damn hard to find an area that heaps of others are not already selling if you are selling at ebay the saturation and competition is so intense you end up having such small profit margins on your listings and then minus all the fees and assuming you have no problems with customers not happy with the quality of product too. Like most make money online ideas it way harder than you think to make decent income....... but in saying that if you were not selling at ebay, have other good ideas and really want to try then you should - just reasearch lots first to reduce the risks and hope you find realible honest dropshippers.....
I agree with a post higher up on this thread, you do not always need to sign up with a Dropshipping company to Dropship. Approach companies directly has alway been my approach, especially with large, bulky and expensive items that could be taking up space in my own warehouse space, let them store it.
I've used esources before. It was a subscription service. Received enough leads to further our research, before deciding not to pursue.
The profit margin sucks!!! Since I'm getting away from dropshipping here is a list of my suppliers DBL Distributing (Now part of Ingram) CWR Electronics (When they have in stock you can find refurbished Garmin GPS) Shipping is a flat 7.00 D&H (Large selection of gaming stuff) I have a few others but I haven't used them. Goodluck with your 2 - 3 dollar profit margin
I would suggest Doba.com one of the best out there. Only negative thing about it is that it is available ony in USA and Canada.
Try chinavasion.com I have used them a few times and they are reliable. They have heaps of cool gadgets Cheer, Rowan
