    also remember if selling one Amazon the requirement to despatch within 2 working days, thats probably a bit ight for many dropshippers. You must also sell from the 'right' country so register as a UKseller and you need to ship from the UK, so no using dodgy grey imports from the Far East as your seller performance will lead to suspension before you barely get off the ground. \amazon is even stricter that ebay on suspensions for anyone that doesn't follow the rules 100%.

    I hate Dropshippers and feel fully justified in leaving them Negative Feedback.

    They claim 2-3 day delivery but then I am waiting a Month for delivery.
    Engage them in polite conversation "I ordered 3 weeks ago but have not received my order"

    Only to get the almost standard reply..

    "I dispatched it the day after I received it from my suppliers, therefore you will have your order 2-3 days from when I dispatch it in accordance with the statement"

    Sorry but I hope you decide against joining the dropshipping crowd,

    If you 'aint got it, don't sell it!! It should be made a rule on Ebay!!

    The most annoying thing on ebay is a seller listed as Uk but item comes from china or HK. Only caught out once, straight neg whether the item is ok or not.
  • Maybe you should whittle the product choice down to an area which you know a lot about, that way you can give your buyers advise & be confident in what you are helping them with. I for one would be far happier buying from someone who has half an idea what they're on about rather than someone who just went for it to make a quick buck & cannot help me with a query. Best of luck with it & the bump too! x
