Ask me anything about dropshipping on ebay

Do you use Prime to ship your products from Amazon and do you find this risky?
I dont use prime although i know people that use prime for a long time without any issues.

Nope i dont find it risky,i just play with higher priced items and i dont need prime for the free shipping because it's already free.
 
I just start using service to list and update price. Got more orders in these 2 days but also problem come as they update price only in 2 hours, buyer bought old price while AM already high price. I try to ask buyer to cancel but because price change is big, so she ignore. Can I just refund her money back? I know she will definitely give me negative feedback. But will eBay also take the eye on me? (Always sell my own stuff, this dropship thing really new to me, feel a bit scary.)
 
There are ways around that but you hasted .

You could have said that the item upon checking was found damaged and that it needs to be sent to your supplier,as such you can't send the product and because it was the last one in stock you will have to fully refund.

Otherwise you could have send the product and take a loss,i've done it too sometimes when i didnt want to cancel the item since it was in need(for example some days before a mother bought an item for her son,the item's price increased and i would be without profit taking a loss of 20 euro.I've sent the item since i wanted the mother to please her child as a one time exception).

It's up to YOU ,how you will make this business work.
 
Thank you for the answer. Answer like that will really help. But I thought I have made a wrong explanation.
Therefore I will take a lost (about $30). :(

and one small tip to anyone that makes this job for a serious income.WORK terapeak as much as you can.Competitor research is pure gold.Find 5-10 Dropshippers that sell with a good profit margin and drink their blood through terapeak.(undercut their hot items)

Cheers
 
Being prime member for this dropship, should I also apply for Amazon store card? Thank you.
 
In the other thread I read advice to edit photos, add some text like free shipping etc. I saw today that this is actually against eBay rules. Is this rule enforced? I see a lot of listings with sales text on photos but I don't want to put my account at risk if they are tough on this.

back when i started i used to do that to copyright my images,i never got a warning or anything.

But after i opened my shop at settings you can find a copyright option that puts automatically your id at each image,so i never edited them myself again
 
hello,
i order one mobile on ebay on 6 months ago. but the seller is not good because the mobile is second hand. and price is first hand.
 
OK, how do you contact manufacturer's suppliers directly in China?

How would you source it?

Many of the sellers from China will dropship from them, so how do I connect with them instead of the middleman?
