Me and a mate used one years ago, hoping to cash in on ebay..
We made little money, although the warehouse we used is still going strong today. The problem we found was making any profit once you have taken off all the fee's etc.
Not saying it wont work for you but I couldn't make it work....0 -
I'm currently working with one and am struggling to attract any sales once you add on all fees, postage, etc. I've made one sale in 2 months so far.HSBC CC £[STRIKE]4000[/STRIKE] 2986 Next £343.47 NRAM £[STRIKE]15471[/STRIKE] 14032:eek:1p Savers Club = 83p0

Yes, it's dead simple.
Which ever drop shipper you choose, there will be lots of others using the same one, and selling the same things as you.
Before you spend any money with a drop shipper, pick one, and a product from them. Then search for that product on ebay and see how many people are selling it for less than you will be buying it for.0 -
If you use drop shipping for ebay bare in mind its the drop shippers who provide the goods to the customer, if they mess up its you who gets it in the neck from the customer and may get bad feedback0

Also bare in mind if the customer wants a refund etc it will be difficult for you to validate they have returned the goods etc.0
