How does Magento function?

    Hi,

    I know how to code well etc but I've never set up a Magento site, I have it all installed and SSL for the secure sections however I'm slightly confused over how it functions..

    When you add products where do they come from? You don't physically need to products and then ship them personally to the customer do you?

    If you want to bulk import lots or related items then are there sites that allow this?

    Basically I want to setup a large drop shipping site with products from the related niche without having to physically be involved with the items, is Magento correct for me?

    Thanks

    You will need a vendor which has live inventory data feeds available.
