I am thinking of starting a dropshipping store for a specific country in Europe and I have found https://www.bigbuy.eu/ as a supplier and they are able to set up a completed automated store. For around 1k euros plus their dropshipping fee you can start selling their complete catalog. No regarding hosting. They can either do it through shopify of through prestashop with independent hosting. What do you think? Does this sound like a good option? I am considering this because I am not very savvy when it comes to this. Can you recomend a better supplier in Europe for something like this?
 
I was last year on dropshipping and it work good for me even after i make some mistakes.

The main focus on dropshipping is to find niche and the product.

My opinion is that the dropshipping will not work if you have a lot of different products, you will need something special.
 
The problem with services like this is the competition. A lot of times, services like this offer automated dropshipping, and turn around and sell the same items for cheaper than you can offer on the same sales channels you choose. Before I set up with my most successful providers, I actually took about a week to call a LOT of the warehouses in the niche in the country. I asked them if they provided white labeled dropshipping, and many actually did. They didn't advertise or list that information on their homepage either. That allows me to offer decent products at actual wholesale prices. You should keep in mind that any company that 'connects warehouses to distributors' is just a middleman that takes a nice big cut for themselves. One place I start my search is going to the corporate homepages of the brands I want to sell. Look for a link for distributors, and start checking out the distributor's homepage on the list. A lot of those distributors are either open to the idea of dropshipping or partner with another warehouse for e-commerce and fulfillment.
