COVID-19 and its influence on dropshipping?

As new regulations regarding "safety first" are coming up almost each day or at least each week, I'd like to know how is it going for you my fellow dropshipper from a foreign country?

I've finally decided to buy in some stock, package it all up myself and use a pretty quick delivery option but the thing is, I'm a bit worried about the whole COVID-19 situation. Are you affected? Share your experience, please.

I do understand that a loads of people are losing their job which makes them completely forget about purchasing anything (especially, online) besides groceries and paying their rent, but is it really that bad? Once again, I'd appreciate if you could share your experience and how is it going for you at the current situation.

My eBay dropshipping store's revenue exploded thanks to covid19.

That depends on the countries,
it's true that the shipping is a little bit different, but people trying to avoid any actual shopping and bumping up the online stores

Once lockdown appearing in specific country for 2 or 3 days there is silence in sales. But after that time sales increase in about 100%-300%. People are forced to order online

Shipping is slower because of the Covid, other than that no decrease in sales.

I've reached out to one specific manufacturer from US and what they've told me is that shipping outside US is still up-to-date and possible but with slight delays, while shipping within US borders works as great as it did before. COVID has barely touched them.

I believe it kind of depends on the manufacturer and their range of options, as well.

10X my sales since covid
