    If i got a plan to running an Internet Store selling computer accecories,

    Wholesale buy in bulk, store at house, delivery when have order

    Dropshipper, get demand, order from supplier, dropshipper drop to my customer.


    from what i see, wholesale price cheap, but risk high with storing, but drop ship low risk with high price.

    Any recommend?

    I personally like dropshipping little or no risk, make sure who your buying from, you might be dealing with another middleman and that jacks the price up. I deal with one reputable firm. John

    Dropship until your customer base is large enough where making the big initial investmant in storing items yourself is worth the low individual-cost of each item.

    Dropshipping is much less risky because things are taken care off, leaving you to market your site.

    Dropshipping is a very easy way to run a business be it large or small. Let someone else hold stock..package it...send it...take returns etc. I do some dropshipping with someone in Asia... what made me choose this supplier is that stock is 99% of the time available...if its out of stock then its only 3 or 4 days before its re-stocked. A VERY important part of choosing your supplier....quick response contact and good stock availability. Nothing worse than selling a product then to find out your supplier is out of stock!
