Help a dropshipping newbie please
Here is my situations:
I have a good connection In China that can supply me with Cellphone accessories (the niche I am interested in)
I mainly want to get into cellphone covers and since I need to test the waters I thought dropshipping can be low risk given that I trust my shipper in China (basically my uncle is the shipper/ )
Here is my dilemma:
SHIPPING kills my margin!
Average price of my items would be $.5- $1 shipping alone for each item may go up to 9-10 dollars (USPS)! Which clearly cuts into my margin, from my DD it looks like to compete I have to sell my covers for $8-15, I know that there are many ebay and amazon dropshippers working with low priced items such as mine, how do these people make it work ? i.e. a dropshipper selling an item from China for $7
I saw that on Aliexpress many sellers offer free shipping on dropshipping but I learnt that they utilize uber cheap services where an item could take 2 months to be delivered
Please help a newbie solve this puzzle!
I thought about testing with US based dropshippers but so far no luck!
I am willing to share my contact in China with any warriors btw
Thanks
