Is it ok to use eBay as a dropshipper? They have the best price for my product and fast shipping not to mention better customer service and returns than aliexpress. I figured I could talk to the sellers about not using eBay packaging or sending an invoice. I am only concerned about actually paying for everything. I only have my personal Paypal that does about $1000 in sales a month but if everything goes good my number of sales will go from 5-10 a month to 50 a day and most of that money will be spent on buying the product immediately. Also how do I get them my buyers address? I have to add an alt address in paypal for every customer? Will Paypal not like me having hundreds of alt shipping addresses? I was also thinking about just buying via eBay guest accounts but I believe I would need new credit card numbers to do that.

Dropshipping from ebay sounds for me better idea than dropship from aliexpress . their customer services is badddd
 
I do not see why you would have a problem. You can put the specific addresses when you buy on ebay not when you pay on paypal. It should not be an issue.
 
in what niche is your product? i dont think the ebay can make better customer service than aliexpress becouse it is same products all suppliers are same from china
 
Just a thought but why not contact seller directly and just work with him on selling you the item directly through Paypal services maybe? I'm sure that he wouldn't mind avoiding those eBay fees.
 
Why would eBay let you avoid fees. I wouldn't do that unless you ask them for their email, they are ass holes like PayPal. There's a video about dropshipping from eBay to eBay when there's a out of stock on your supplier. Jack pitman talks about it but it might be on no bs dropshipping channel. I'm on mobile so I can't link. You might learn something from it.
 
Actually i wanted to know for a while now but how does dropshipping actually work?
The part that confuses me the most is adding the shipping address once the buyer orders the product.. like how do you do that? lol
It confuses me so much i don't even know how to explain it correctly haha
 
Your confusing me. You just add their shipping address from eBay to the address you select while ordering it on your suppliers website. Most websites it's easy to do. If that doesn't answer it be more specific

Lol that's the whole point.. i can't even think straight when i think about it...strange for me haha but i think i'm starting to get it then.
Alright a eBay to Amazon Dropshipping for example.
Let's say i sold an item on eBay i was trying to dropship, so once the item is sold and i get thier address, i simply just copy and paste it and put it on the amazon product that i was trying to dropship? Correct? Let me know.
Thanks
 
Yeah, and you can automate the living hell out of it :) Just make sure not to get caught on IPs.
 
haha i see what you mean it can be confusing, its called dropshipping on ebay from amazon when you order on amazon to your customer from ebay. i recommend you to research the crap outa it so you dont run into problems, i tend to look at no bs dropshipping, and jack pitmans youtubes to research info then i look at other channels. i dont use amazon tho, i would search youtube with "ebay from amazon dropshipping". walmart as my main supplier but i sell some high selling products from academy, amazon has no profit for me if i snipe others listings, im new so my margin is average but i still do good with few listings. i just found out from experience some customers like 2 day shipping (free on walmart if its eligible) and will come back to your ebay listing, i gave a recent customer a discount cause i recently made $25 on a $75 ebay listing and she will be back again cause she already has 3 times. amazon is cool tho cause of the auto ordering programs.

Damn, haha ok then, i might give it a try, i don't know yet though since i think you need to pay with credit card on Amazon and i'm currently not into that, would rather just use PayPal since it's more easier.

Ok ok, i see. i was just using Amazon as an example, i would try it but i don't like the idea of paying with a credit card on Amazon to buy products, for me PayPal is the way to go, even if they are strict to the azz lol.
I will do some research tho on your suggestions.
Thank you!
 
That's my situation as well. Some PayPal suppliers I think are worthy are home depot. Walmart (don't order allot a day until you get tax exempt). Academy. Kmart. There's others but it just depends what you sell
 
You can probably automate Amazon credit card payment, but Paypal... they're big on security! It might sense it's automated... Amazon won't care as long as transaction clear.
 
as a buyer or a seller?

Selling on ebay is a bitch, while buying is one of the best platforms for
 
When dropshipping from Ebay to Ebay how are you getting around with submitting a tracking number that has already been submitted once? I think ebay will not verify your tracking number
 
From what i remember from a YouTube video you need to mark the item as shipped on eBay maybe and msg the buyer the tracking number, it's not very safe to do cause PayPal or eBay will be on the buyers side if anything goes wrong. Jack pitman will often avoid out of stocks using eBay to dropshipping from. I would look into it deeper if you plan to use it
 
to keep an ebay account in good standing, you need to update it with tracking.
