Market Summary

These days a huge proportion of buyers go online to find the best deal for new computer systems, laptops, computer parts and computer accessories.

As we’ve mentioned, computers are a relatively competitive category so you’ll need to have a close look at existing sellers before you start searching for wholesale computer suppliers . Take note of the items sold by existing sellers, final selling price (view completed listings), and how the sellers are promoting their items – are they using stores, free shipping, discounts on multiple orders? What are the existing sellers doing badly? Perhaps they have poor photos or descriptions. Perhaps their shipping is a bit slow. Maybe they are overlooking people who don’t know much about computers and need educating (you could write a special guide and throw it in with each purchase!). If you look hard enough you’ll find a niche that’s ripe for the picking.

Selling Tips for Computers

• Bundling – offering free accessories with a laptop or desktop computer system is a great way to encourage people to choose you over competitors.
• Offer super fast shipping or shipping discounts. Build the extra cost to you into the item price.
• Provide a description that’s informative and educational. Bullet points are very effective for listing the main features.
