After having a recent shipment of mine from China seized by US customs, I'm a bit paranoid about dropshipping and the wholesale business. On the other hand, it seems quite lucrative, so I have a few questions.
1) How much money (roughly) does one need to get started? I mean, sure you could start off with a couple dollars, but I reckon it would be difficult. So maybe a better question, how much money would allow for one to start comfortably in the business.
2) On top of items to sell, what else is needed? A PO box possibly? If so, how much am I looking at ($$$) for that, in the US?
3) Is US customs reasonable as far as things that are legal? Have any of you had experiences where customs actually seized items that were legit and legal?
