Is ebay dropshipping profitable?

I wanna start dropshipping on eBay, but I'm afraid this platform won't bring me much profit. Previously I used Shopify, Sellvia, and Wix, and now I wanna try something new. If anyone here has tried dropshipping on eBay, please tell me — is it worth it? What are the common pitfalls?

Re: Is ebay dropshipping profitable?

Selling online has inherent risk, and drop-shipping substantially adds to that risk. With this business model, you forfeit control of the inspection of goods, packaging and shipping. The vendor has all the control for fulfillment of the order but you are holding the bag if something goes wrong. On eBay in particular, there are performance standards that can be difficult to meet under the  dropshipping model.

No.

You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious.
