Just wondering if it’s possible to earn a living still with drop shipping, I’ve looked into it but can’t see how it can be viable with competition from amazon and eBay? Anyone got any experience in this area?

From my experience it can be quite difficult dropshipping, you would be competing with sellers who actually hold the stock and ship it out much quicker (same day for delivery in 2-3 days) whereas someone dropshipping, their customer would wait a while to receive the goods especially if it is being dispatched from abroad.
