Anyone have any relationships with a dropshipper or know of a reputable one. This would be of great appreciation for the help.

    I think you need to spend time investigating all your options first.
    Not all companies are created the same, choose the company whose dropship program appeals to you the most:

    I would listen to whitedove, not all companies are reliable as well. I would consider networking and if your serious enough go to the actual events like trade shows that have suppliers already there with the booth.

    My friend has a booth for his manufacturing company, and he does this way. Connect with these suppliers and ask pre-qualified questions face to face.

    I'm new to this, is there an ebook I could read. Say like the types of questions and/or what types of questions or qualifications they may have? Thanks WhiteDove and James B

    worldwidebrands.com may be a good place for you to go. If you buy a membership there you will get access to their list of wholesalers. You also get a good amount training.

    Hi,
    I would check out/subscribe to Skip McGrath's newsletter-http://skipmcgrath.com
    He gives out tons of ebay/dropshipper info and has new companies he lists regularly.

    I would think that any list of dropshippers you find on the internet would already have their products saturated on ebay.

    See if there are any local manufacturers in your area and see if you can cut a deal with them.

    Contact your distributor and ask them to dropship for ya--also worldwidebrand.com is an excellent source!

    Good Luck!

    What is your niche?

    It's not likely anyone is going to give you their dropshipping source. These are relationships you have to nurture yourself.

    Yeah you should check out Skip Mcgrath like Amy said, and check out Worldwidebrands... despite their membership fee.

    Find a product...figure out who makes it. Contact them - see if they dropship. Rinse and repeat. The reality is, nobody will give you a 'dropship source', because it will just create more competition for them. The only way you'll succeed on ebay with dropshipping is if you can find unique products that minimal competition is selling. Once you find it - hold onto it like gold.

      Probably the best post in this thread. WWB is a horrible resource.
