[przemo123]

Hey there,
i have started with ebay - amazon droppshiping some time ago and my question is : what is your profit margine on a single product? Do you use % of price or try to always be for example: 2-3$ profit?

After some sales, paypal may ask you for invoices regarding what you are selling.

I've made an excel sheet. It's simple when you know the parameters.

No, not possible.
You can only use a card or gift cards as payment methods.

I think its easier rather than ebay. Paypal with restriction and such. What a mess.

i'd like more information on this as well. is 20% realistic profit margin here? what is your volume? and do you find your volume increases with lowering the profit margin? meaning is it better to do more volume at 10% profit margin than less volume at 20%?

Yes of course. I always go with high demand products even with 10% profit margin only.

Do you ever have problem, when using your Amazon account to send orders to many different people?

On average, what is the order volume look like?

What is the total cut of ebay/paypal?

Thanks for answering these questions.

Also, what is interesting to me - do buyers seem to care when their order shows up with Amazon tape on the box?

1. I have my own ways on how to safely do this. Do not order too much in 1 buyer account.
2. Late im getting atleast 20-30 orders per account (this is dependent on what items you're selling)
3. my net profit is atleast 10% of each item listed
4. 99% of the buyers won't even care, as long as the item received is as advertised/described. Also there's a send as 'gift' option from amazon so invoices wont be included.

I am interested in doing this. Is the 10% after paypal/ebay fee's?
