The trouble with your idea, is that a few thousand other people have had it as well. You will not make money dropshipping on ebay, as you will be competing with other sellers using the same dropshippers with the same margins, and the profits will be negligible if any. Please don't consider going down this route!
Anybody that has found a good, reliable dropshipper who they can make money from will be unlikely to share the details - they will not want the competition!0 -
True. Secret info that other dropshippers wouldn't share.
I used to dropship but competition on eBay is stupid to the point where everyone undercuts and you either end up with no sales by sticking to your guns or making nothing by dropping your prices on eBay.0 -
GavB79 & Deru,
Thanks for your comments I will give this a wide birth then and try to come up with a profitable solution.0 -
drop shipping is hard to get into now, i did months of research and couldnt find a way of making it profitable so had to dump the idea, but if you google dropship forum a marvellous wealth of knowledge should appear before you.Had my amazing little girlie 08/12/2007 - 11 days late! 9lbs 3oz
My second little girl entered the world 20/03/2010 - 11 days late! 8lbs 4oz

Certainly wouldn't trust spam companies that trawl forums like this OmenSteve does
I think careful who you go with and what you want to sell as plenty of competition out there0 -

I just love the idea that some people think we are desperate enough to buy dodgy cell phones from the Far East and actually try to sell them in the UK.
