Amazon to eBay "drop shipping"

[Jonnn]

looking to pick up again a ebay store that sells amazon items for more and profits a small amount

I did it about a year ago till I let a lot orders get behind during Christmas time
and eBay decided to blacklist me and ban me I had a decent account with all good star ratings thats what help me make sales at same time I was buying wholesale colored yeti and selling them on eBay and shipping myself I did pretty good I think $15,000 sold in gross one month took home about $3300 just for listing amazon items and having them prime shipped using my membership being able to sell $10 more on eBay make 2-3 dollars and item but if you sell 1000 a month thats $3000 in income

I want to the the same again but was wondering if anyone here is making still good money and its worth it or has it been overplayed on eBay by now I want to do a mix of drop shipping store but also wholesale buying strategically items from china and shipping them myself

now If anyone more experience could give advice on how to kill it again I would appreciate it

I plan to try buy a eBay store with good reviews not sure if thats smart

or to start a new store thru a friend or someone else since I'm blacklisted lol &
sell cheap items for a lot less to take a loss and be able ship quickly and get good reviews quick I know the method to becoming a top rated store I would shoot for that

is there certain keywords I should use or how do I get to put in my listings to make them appear to more people

I want to use priceyak I have some money to invest and I want to scale fast so I think thats the best way

It's still working good OP you just need to e more careful with eBay, as they suck.

It's not a great time to get back into it. As of a few weeks ago they slapped the majority of dropshippers in the rankings. Sales are way down for most with more changes likely to come.

If you're going to do it my suggestion would be avoid public re-pricers and use sources where you know the shipping source location.

Your thread makes it look easy peasy. Just get a good standing eBay account, add products with a small price increase from Amazon and bank??
I was also thinking about doing this thing so...

the main issue with ebay...is Paypal...holding funds, limitations...that's why many sellers cant scale their business on ebay...especailly the new ones...

But, why did eBay ban you? How did you voilate their terms? Nothing to me appeared wrong from what you mentioned here.

OP said he let alot of orders get behind during Christmas time... Likely due to non-shipment, late shipment and or too many cancelled orders because items were sold out on amazon. Just a guess from reading between the lines.

I have a line of credit for one my businesses so cash flow wouldn't be issue but I may just drop shipping site with facebook ads

if you can't fulfill orders your ratings drop to below and they blacklist you for breaking one of their policies I had an item that over sold the vendor told me he had inventory and he ended up not having enough so returns and bad ratings and complaints

Yeah I think too thats the main problem with those ebay limitations and problems!

Only thing annoying about this method is that some products change price out of the blue.

A lot of Amazon brand owners are reporting Ebay dropshippers.
