Paypal money hold for 21 days

Thank you,

"The different site" gives me a good price on the products.

Yes, this is dropshipping but not something like ebay arbitrage, I have a good price on the products and the main desk of the supplier is close to me.

I took this company because I know someone who use it since a few months with success.

Yes there is a risk, but It won't be the only source of incomes, so I hope my other project (bigger) will work, and if something happen I will be able to cover.

Thank you very much for the good advices.

I hope it will be good, I don't want to dropship forever, it's just for the start and then I will buy the products in advance.

good this is what I wanted to hear

I'm not big on the whole "drop shipping" model myself, but if the seller has sourced a legitimate supplier who can provide quality services and products, then it can work, and it can be very profitable, and very easy. I've gone through several courses that teach people how to do this, but the ones I've seen mostly instruct people to find good sellers on Amazon, and then list those products on eBay at a higher price and pocket the difference. I've never tried this, as it seems to me it would be almost impossible to find a product that dozens of other people aren't already selling, and I don't really like the idea of selling a product to somebody that I have not seen and handled myself.

The bottom line is that when you source products from someone you don't know or have any kind of relationship with, then you have no control over what product your customer receives. Basically, you are staking your name and reputation on a company you know nothing about and a product you have never even seen or used. That's a definite recipe for disaster. How can you know if they are going to send a real product or a knock-off, or if they are going to send "refurbished" electronics instead of brand new products?

This is most likely why the 21-day policy is in place. That, and of course, as many have mentioned, scammers are running wild on many auction sites, including eBay. I think it's a good policy as it protects consumers and puts new sellers to the test to make sure they are not running a scam.

Also, it shouldn't be an issue to anyone starting a real business, because they should have enough capital put aside to cover 21 days of product sales. If the seller has indeed sourced a product supplier they trust, they should have no problem putting up their own money to purchase the products that their customers buy until the 21-day hold is lifted. If they don't trust the supplier enough to do this, then they probably shouldn't be selling the product to people in the first place.

Ok thank you
