Hello everyone,

What is the best ecommerce store to dropship?


and also how do dropshippers get paid?
I'm guessing once when you get a paid customer you pay the dropshipper, and provide them the customers address.

Help me out thanks,

    All depends on your individual setup- sometimes it can be done as affiliate store- you do only marketing and gets paid after all. But I believe security is the best policy- you need the most updated product list - the best will be CSV or XML exchange- this way wholesalers will provide you product feed and inventory- you will provide marketing and since you receive an order and got paid, your order from the wholesaler. Since your catalogue/inventory/availability are synch- you will be able to provide accurate delivery time. There is nothing worse than not keeping your promises to customers. With time being co can get merchant credit from your supplier.

    We have found that 3DCart is the best eCommerce platform for a variety of reasons - one being that you can set up multiple warehouse locations and calculate shipping based upon the warehouse a product is coming from - perfect for dropshipping from multiple suppliers.

    The customer pays for their order first. Then, you send money to the supplier (your wholesale price). The difference between what the customer paid and what you pay the supplier is your profit. The supplier processes the order and then supplies you with tracking information, which you forward to the customer.

    Hi there,

    Ive been using Ebay for a good while now and having a great time.

    Ive got everything in place and its now running like a dream, its quite simple really. I get a sale, and get paid immediately, then I purchase the item from my supplier using their address details.

    its a case of getting everything setup correctly and then just scaling it up big time.

      Hey,

      Thanks for your answer. Do you get in contact with the supplier before or after you sale on eBay?
