Hey guys,
after some weeks of watching drop shipping videos etc. I want to start drop shipping. But I still have some questions.

I live in EU and would like to start with drop shipping from Amazon to Ebay. Do you think this is good for beginners to gain some experiences? Which programs would you recommend me which are not too expensive to list items from amazon to eBay and calculate profit etc? Do you have any other recommendations?

Thanks a lot guys!!

I wouldn't recommend this method at all but hey that's my opinion, why not start an actual store?

For some general tips about it check https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/dropshipping-advice-tips-and-tricks-for-people-that-are-new-or-have-failed-probably-long-ass-read.939866/ thread.

Because prices are already lol on amazon and if you want to compete with the Chinese boys on eBay. good luck.

With your own site you at least can give your own touch and marketing to it.
 
I think you can definitely go for dropshipping. Just don't dive right into it. Instead read about it and then follow through.

Now you can set up your own dropshipping store in WooCommerce platform and then import products from AliExpress using WooDropship or AliDropship.

Further, you'll have to promote the store to drive traffic and get sales. This model can help you get a stable and decent income if you put in sincere efforts for the same.
 
Shopify with Oberlo seems like the easiest and best solution.

Have to disagree here. I Dropship on eBay US and my store is 90% Amazon items into eBay

Im using a software that only tracks price changes on Amazon and Walmart and they have a ton of customer wich means ALL THIS PEOPLE only use Walmart and Amazon!

im not saying "theres enough for everybody" kinda thing, but theres a legit cashflow that you can get from using Amazon, I made 4k$ profit this past december and was processing 30-40 amazon orders a day without any problems.

PS: I was also using an Amazon CC for 5% cashabck wich helps on the extra income ;)

Ive never seen a succesful shopify store, but thats my 2 cents on the matter

Of course there will be people doing money on it but its just too much money investment on traffic to end actually getting none, thats way eBay Dropshipping is the safest, easiest way to go, talking from experience here

Lol why am I not surprised, you are bumping every dropshipping thread around :D

A couple forum rules, this thread not included but stop bumping inactive year old threads and your last 2 replies are a min apart which counts as inflating and could get you an infraction.

Now I don't know why in every thread you are saying the same although I got a suspicion but leaving that aside mods don't appreciate that.

Because you are successful doesn't mean that's the way.

First of you are over there and have access to an Amazon cc while most don't and tell me honestly how old is your eBay account and how long have you been on eBay in pretty sure before you were doing this as an ages account with rep is important.

How you are you explaining to your customers when they find out it's from Amazon? Because I thought the whole gifting don't work forever.

Now about your 2 cents, you know how many shops are out there?

Just because you don't know doesn't mean that there are not more than a "few" shops out there making 5 figures a month.

That being said, it's indeed a lot harder to be successful in because it requires skill in multiple assets of marketing but the rewards are bigger.

About your method, I can say the same, sure you might be earning but how many are not?

You got way more competition than having your own store as from Amazon to eBay is probably the most used method.

So tell me, this software of yours, is it software you created?

Thanks for pointing out the "not bump old thread" thing, dont want to get in any trouble. You dont have to have any suspicious at all lol, I just want to earn my status here at BHW and this is the thing I know the most about, hence me trying to be active on it.

But I wont mess arround with really old posts then, my bad on that.

Going back to Dropshipping from Amazon (Could be Walmart, target, HD, Sears, doesnt really matter ive done all of them) to eBay

-> Account I had arround 10 feedback when i started (arround 100 sales historic) without Dropshipping, but I had it for a couple years. Before using this one I had one brand new wich I tried Dropshipping on and got suspended (Was scared of eBay flagging the aged account), so then I had 2 options

#1 Stealth Accounts (Wich I did too)

#2 Using Aged one (This is where I Dropship Amazon to eBay mainly)

Now... The gift thing, I swear I dont even do that, customer dont care at all, you will get the grumpy ocassional 1 out of 100, but you just explain to them "I source from Amazon I have stock in there and the item is on both platforms bla bla" and thats about it. No Biggie.

That shouldnt stop you from doing Dropshipping, I swear is an awesome way to do the extra cash. And you dont even have to use "Amazon Only"

For international people there are supplier that accept international Paypal like the following:

-Sears
-Kmart
- Bed Bath and Beyond
- Walmart (hit or miss sometimes)
- Wayfair
- Hayneedle

So you can always Dropship on eBay with these suppliers and it works!

ALSO! You need no marketing skills, its the safest way Ive found to do online money (you can also Dropship on Amazon, but you would need to be experienced since their tolerance of mistakes is super low compared to eBay). Method is simple:

1. Find item on Amazon (Amazons choice / Amazon best seller are easiest to start and know they have high % of being sold on ebay)
2. Listed on eBay and full out your 80 words eBay title
3. Get Pictures / Description
4. List item
5. Rinse and repeat 10k times lol

Then just deal with customer service BS and ordering item / adding tracking on Amazon

And no, software is not mine. I guess you think "thats what im about" (trying to promote a software), but no. I didnt even say the name cause I knew someone would be pointing out something about me. I could give you the name of the software if you want to, there are plenty indeed I can tell you all of them since im on this DS world and have tried a ton of them lol

I am well aware of the method for a long time :D so didn't need the long explanation but it's good for new people.

Only thing I'm wondering about is if you do not do the gift option customers will see the Amazon price and might feel kinda fucked over lol now I don't know how much margin you put on top of it but I guessing it's not much then.

I know different software for this but as I'm curious in everything you can PM me the one you use.

Dont worry about it a swear, this shoudnt stop you from going at it. This was my thought process too

"WHO IN HELL WOULD BUY FROM ME IF IT SAYS AMAZON AND ITS MORE EXPENSIVE"

Then I tried and it worked!

Markup can go as low as 3% (Depends on your standars tho) and as high as 30%. Average I would say 10%
 
Interested to see what you use, im confident on the ones Im using.

Will PM
Gheghe 2 posts directly after each other is seen as post inflation, could get you an infraction ;)

I'm not saying this is stopping me lol I'm way too busy with eCom sites, CPA sites and writing an eBook but IF I ever got some spare time I might check it out for fun :)

Damn... Can I delete previous comment?

Where can I read the etiquette for posting lol. Ive read BHW for a while now but dont have experience posting. God damn.

Good to know you are doing just fine, dropshipping has taking a big chunk of my time to get it going, so you having experience on multiple stuff, cant even grasp how much it probably took you. Well done bro
 
It definitely works. But in the beginning it's going to be really hard. Because you have alot of competition. It's better if you start your own store and get cheaper Chinese products.

Im interested in your approach to this "Dropshipping Chinese stuff" cause I see this as a really high investment/high risk since you dont know if its going to sell and if it doesnt sell you are left hanging with inventory that no one wants.

I mean, im not saying "IT DOESNT WORK", of course theres someone doing it right. Im just curious how would you approach it.

Cause eBay Dropshipping is so low risk in the sense that you never even touch the inventory and you just go and purchase the item once you sold it.

Safe and Sound!

Lol I meant Aliexpress products (Did I say chinese stuff? :p). Yeah just combine shopify with Aliexpress. Oberlo is a good shopify plugin so you don't have to insert every single product one by one in your shopify store

Gotcha. Yeah chinese stuff sounded bit more shady lol.

Thoughts on oberlo?

Ive seen them on every possible Youtube dropshipping video there is, spammy all over the place lol.
