Re: dropshiping items

If you really want to learn, then reading this board will prove to be quite a valuable resource.   If you have a question, it will prove to be beyond valuable, if you need to hear only what you want to hear, then this board isn't for you.

 

Good luck in selling if you choose to take it seriously.

You may succeed in raising your feedback but it may not result in the feedback you want.  Dropshippers can run out of stock so you will get defects on your account should that happen.  Only a few out of stock defects and it will end your career as a seller totally forever.  A lot of dropshippers make their money sending cheap fake China junk~~you never know since you never see the items that you're selling first hand.

 

You are much better off selling items you have in your possession.  It will be slow going but you have control of your account~~with a dropshipper you have no control.

 

 


Here is just a quick sampling of typical feedback from customers (buyers) given to drop shippers:

 

This kind of feedback is why many drop shippers do not survive.

Re: dropshiping items

I dont know if you are still looking for answers, but try this one on. 

 

The item, lets say a "mask" can be used for several different things. It can be an airsoft mask, a painball mask, reenactment mask. Basically consider all of the uses of the item. NOW, build your title. see, the title is your listing, and that is what people search for on eBay, not photos. So yes, if you are selling a mask, it will be competitive. give that mask a more specific need. Obviously, mask, just is an example.

 

Best of luck to you
