  dropshipper for books?

  Posted 21 Jul 07 3:11 am.

  I just joined and have spent the whole day trying to figure things out. I research something to sell, but then I can't find a supplier for that item. I'm frustrated. I really want a dropshipper or wholesaler for new release fiction books. Can anyone help me? I can't seem to find anything on here.

  Did you click the link for suppliers at the top of the page, then 'Books and Magazines', there are five listed in that catagory,including fiction, nonfiction, etc..

  Before you go too far you should really research the market for new release fiction books. You're going up against major competition (Amazon, BN, WalMart, etc.). They have tremendous purchasing power. In fact for the last Harry Potter book I read that none of them made a profit on the book (and Amazon sold about 1 million copies). They can afford to basically, giveaway 1 million books, just to lure new customers.
  
  Sorry to put a damper on your idea. You might want to focus on a different book market, where you can build a nice niche.

  YEA! I agree selling books is
  like selling DVD movies. I tryed
  both and too much competitions.
  
  When ever I want a book I just
  go to Wall Mart/ or Amazon...
