OK, I need to set things up like this:

1) Visitor to site enters and reads content
2) Likes picture and site, wants to buy something
3) I have a link to a coffee mug with funny pic or saying on it, they order
4) the company prints custom mug and sends it to visitor.
5) I never touch product, difference between what I charged and Wholesale fee goes into my paypal account.

Anyone know companies that do this? Custom drop shipping?

I've been on Zazzle | Custom T-Shirts, Personalized Gifts, Posters, Art, and more but can't figure out if this is dropshipping or do I have to fill the orders myself (do not want to do this, automation is what I'm after)

Any help would be GREAT! Thanks!

    Hi Gunsblazen,

    Zazzle should give you some code to enter on your site, this will act as a "mini" shop on your website, in which people can order your custom created products, zazzle then ship the product to the purchaser and you keep the profit difference. So effectively, Zazzle is a dropshipping company.

      Awesome, so lets say you visit my site right? And you click the button for the product I set up from Zazzle.

      So the order goes to THEM and THEY send it to the customer and I never see it?

      I thought I had to order things in bulk or something on zazzle and sell them on my own?

      But you are saying I never have to touch the product?

        Yes, Zazzle processes the order, makes the product, and ships it out.

        Not on Zazzle or CafePress

        Yup.

        Just note, the prices are fairly high. You will not make a ton of money from this - think of it is a value-add to your customer and that is it.

          My company does this! I am from the USA but currently own a printing company in Beijing (Custom iPhone cases, mugs, ceramic tiles, murals, etc.) I would be happy to set up drop-shipping do to the shipping cost out of China being so low... PM me and i'll send my company details. Oh, the custom iPhone cases are killing it right now!!! Especially right now with the release of iPhone 5. Thanks and happy holidays!

    A couple of other sites you might wanna check out:

    - Custom T-Shirts, Unique Gifts, Posters, & Personalized Mugs | CafePress

    - Sell T-Shirts Online - Build Your Brand With Your Own Free Merchandise Store | Printfection

    Not sure if they're exactly what you're looking for, but worth a look.

    Hi Gunsblazen, CafePress(.com) drop-ships with your design and your name on it. They've been around a long time and I've used them to sell custom t-shirts, coffee mugs, as well as a few other products. They will manufacture and drop-ship on demand. Even for one item. In my opinion, they are the best out there. They meet all of your stated criteria by the way.
