    I've built an app for dropshippers who sell on Amazon and use Walmart as a supplier.
    I don't know if you know already, but when you do dropshipping with Amazon and Walmart, once you receive an order, you have to go to Walmart and buy the product the person bought from you on Amazon.

    I've heard some people who receive thousands of orders per day complain about how tedious it can be to do the orders one at a time by themselves and also how frustrating it is to deal with freelancers messing up or missing orders.

    My app does all the manual labor of fulfilling and gets rid of the need for all human interaction when it comes to order fulfillment.

    For those of you who do this, how helpful would this be?
    Who in their right mind would actually do all of that when then they can easily get a business/tax ID and buy directly from suppliers and make more money? In the USA market, anyway.

      Manufacturers and wholesalers who offer dropshipping generally charge more than what you can get the same items for from a retailer, especially if you catch things on sale from retailers.

        Your response has nothing to do with the original question or my reply. Only a novice would waste time dropshipping from Amazon to Ebay or vice versa.

        It's far more lucrative and efficient to open an account with legitimate distributors or manufacturers --which would allow for higher profit margins than scamming on Amazon/Ebay to make $5, if that.

        Niche selection is everything and it's still possible to find Suppliers that offer wholesale prices that will allow you to compete with retailers like Amazon & Ebay and still make a profit. That said, Consumer Electronics is definitely not a niche to enter at this point because the market is over saturated and the profit margins are not there..
