Good results!

How's it going with Amazon? I tried this a couple of years ago and a lot of people complained of "missing" parcels. Amazon refunded most of them but the admin was a hassle. Think I was suing ProfitScraper at the time.

I had maybe 2-3 problems with undelivered parcels, so it works very smoothly

I did this for a few years and did alright out of it but then eBay started shadow banning dropshippers, mainly the arbitrage sellers who are selling from Az. So try to leave as little a footprint as you can.

I think what gave me away was using price/stock watchers that were clearly arbitrage tools and used the API and too many cancelations from stuff gong out of stock on Amazon before the stock tool had a chance to update.

Plus any little dig into my feedback would have a couple of moaners banging on about it being delivered through Amazon so I made it easy for them to catch me.

Anyway all the best and try to keep under the radar.

I do everything manually, when I finally register as a business seller, I will list more high ticket items from various retail suppliers, I will never ever use any API software, but still I saw dropshippers with like 20000 feedbacks and they also do retail ds from amazon, so if I'm going to keep my head low, I think that it should works for quite some time, anyway, I'm doing ebay ds only to raise the capital for something more stable, like amazon fba, or my own e-commerce shop/brand

Yes, I am a UK resident for over 5 years now, by saying that it is difficult to open a business account I meant the application time, which in lloyds bank is approx. 4 weeks now

I copy the titles from snipped dropshippers' listings, sometimes I add 1-2 additional words to them

I tried but they ask very 'delicate' questions like "send us an url with the exact product that you are going to sell" and so on

thanks for answering me! Aren't you worried about your amazon account that could get banned ? I heard that amazon ban if they see too many orders for different people?

as I said previously, I've seen plenty of dropshippers using amazon with tens of thousands of feeedbacks, and all of their items are from amazon, so if they can do we too, soon I will use also different suppliers to minimize the risk of getting some sort of limit/ban from amazon, before I started this whole thing I was wondering too how is that possible that for example when I send let say 10 items to 10 different addresses daily they won't block my account etc., but it looks like they just don't care

hello,

I've started ebay dropshipping on ebay.co.uk on 12/07/21, since then I managed to sell 44 items, main goal? Preparing my store for upcoming black friday, because right now I list only cheap items, to gain momentum and to not generate too high revenue too quickly, I will try to update this topic regularly, have a nice day!

Good luck bro

yep it's part of the application process pretty sure the agents handling the applications dont care. it's easier to apply for business accounts through starling/monzo than high street banks
