Hello,

I have been learning some things about ecommerce and selling on amazon. I am trying to find a latest course from which i can learn the following things and i would really appreciate if somebody can help me out with my queries. I checked out all the ecommerce business models but i really liked this one (Drop Shipping).

Q1) When we say dropshipping it means that customer has to pay first in order to proceed with shipping stuff etc. Right? But how much do i need upfront cash because i think amazon keep money for 2 weeks? What would i do with out cash flow?

Q2) When we say source or import from china, how can i find drop shippers in china from Alibaba? Are there any dropshippers on Alibaba? or Aliexpress?

Q3) When i checked out international shipping for alibaba or aliexpress. Eg: $5 products increases to $30 with shipping? Shipping is very expensive from manufacturing companies in china. Can you help me in this part?

Q4) Amazon FBA is not available in my country (Dubai, UAE) what is the best alternative? Kindly refer me to a course from which i can learn Amazon Selling with Dropshipping...!

Regards

    Use a credit card for drop shipped orders. Make sure your drop shipper has the products in stock before placing items on amazon.com or ebay.com. Or, buy a minimum of one for each item you want to sell, so you'll have inventory to ship, in case you drop shipper is out of stock, when you get an order.

      Drop shipping is very difficult because people want there product quickly after they buy it. If you are going to find a drop shipper make sure they can get you things overnight this is the best way.
