Hi,
As many fine posters on here have said Dropshipping is not a good way to run an eBay business. Many Sellers have lost their privilege to sell on here because of the problems mentioned By previous Posters.
Without saying NO ONE is going to give You their sources for products that they sell. Naturally, why would someone tell You what their sources are for some items and invite competition in an already tight market? That's not going to happen!
I don't know how the poster discovered that You were from Bulgaria and I don't really know if that is true...but really the concept that I think would help You would help anyone in any country they live in....
So, I go to Dear Google and look up what Bulgaria manufacturers and sends to the rest of the world. Being a Hairstylist the first thing that came to MY mind was EXPENSIVE face creams, flower oils, aromatherapy etc. Looking it up I was right. There Must be some manufacturers that will make a private label for Your countries well know products that You could sell on eBay. You'd have No competition, small items, not costly to ship, and something People from America and other countries would certainly buy.
Sellers are better off to think of What their area of the World produces and sell those items rather than use a drop shipper and Sell the same things that everyone sells. Each country has exquisite items that their country makes that are More valuable than run of the mill items from another country!

Anyone with thos kinds of connections probably hold them pretty close to the chest. That kind of information doesn't come free!

Sorry to have to tell you this but here's the truth: No one here will answer this question nicely.
Other sellers will help you with a lot of information but they will not give assistance when it comes to competing against them in the sales market. That's understandable.
Additionally, many sellers do care to not use Drop Shippers because there are problems associated with this type of business that can make a mess of your account. If you want to make quick money, this is not a reliable way.
So, you need to start the way everyone else does: go do your own research and make sure you look into all the details very carefully.

I understand. I am doing small research but most of the sites I have seen dont seem very trustworthy. I mean there is a membership tax (which seems strange to me).

If you want to look stupid on here fast, use a drop shipper. Best advice, if it
is not in your hand, do not sell it.

NEVER dropship.
I Neg all dropshippers.

Some people here really REALLY .... REALLY don't like dropshippers. Not really the best place to try to find advice on where to find good drop shippers. Plus it's not really the most sustainable business model anyway, lot of things that can go wrong when there's a 3rd party involved.
Plus there's this whole thing about people that want to file SNADs because you dropshipped.

Afternoon,
I am surprised that you came here with this kind of question because you must not know how difficult it is to sell here on ebay these days.
It's hard enough to run a successful ebay business with products that you have in hand...being a drop shipper means that you are competing against 100's...maybe 1000's of other sellers trying to do the same thing. Your only advantage is being on the bottom of the pile of everyone cutting prices by pennies to try to be the person who gets the sale.
In addition to this...many here on ebay (both buyers and sellers) do not like receiving goods from someone other than the one they purchased from. It used to be that you had to have the inventory in hand when you listed it...and even though it is not required to have it in hand anymore...the drop shipper better have it or you'll get an "out of stock" purchase and then the flood gates open against you.
If you truly want to make pennies on the dollar and let someone else run most of your business then you better have a REALLY GOOD relationship with your drop shipper...and I seriously doubt anyone here would introduce you to those they have trust in just so they can have another competitor here.

This question is like a thief asking you to help him take a $20 from you.
Would you help?
And how and what exactly would you feel like answering?
Because I'm kinda simmering here.

Yeah I'm going to step outside now, go do something else, take my mind off this.

I have read on the boards where walmart and amazon have been used as dropshippers.
I wouldn't advise using either.

Looks like they are already using a dropshipper and are shopping around for another supplier.
2 items looked at shows shipping from chicago, but registered from Bulgaria.

If your problem is finding goods to buy and have on hand to resell to others. I know a few Italian gentlemen in New York and New Jersey who can help you out with obtaining lose cost name brand items that you could resell to others. Also why stop there why not sell cheap chines knock offs from Alibaba that are made from information hacked and stolen from companies. The items are cheap and usually do not work. That sounds like some thing you might be interested in based off of your question and customer feedback.
