Succeeding in Drop-shipping

When you add a product, you enter a upc which is the barcode number, if the product exists on amazon already you will see the product details. The asin is a number issued by Amazon to every product. If you are selling an existing Amazon product it will already have an asin you can't change this.

If you are adding a new product to Amazon with a upc that is not on Amazon already Amazon will give the product an asin after you create it.

Does that make more sense?
Yeah but how do I find the UPC product id of that product?
 
Is the product on Amazon already or are you trying to create a new product?
 
Ok, your are creating a new product right? You will need a upc code for the product id. This must be unique on Amazon. It's basically a number from below a barcode. You can either buy these, or what I used to do is look around my home for products with barcodes then I would enter the numbers until one was accepted. Or the other option is to search Amazon for someone else selling the same product and click the button that says sell one like this. Hope this helps.
I'm just starting with Amazon, been selling on Ebay and I'm trying to list my first item.
I purchased a bunch of UPC/EAN codes from Ebay and when I try to list the item it says : You're trying to use a code that doesn't match the item you're trying to sell....
What can I do ?
Have you ancountered this problem ?
Thank you !
