    New dropship business soon to launch

    Posted 4 May 09 3:17 am.

    Hello. Some of you may know me already, as I have been a member here, at Salehoo, for almost two two years now. I am in the process of putting together a dropship/wholesale website. I hope to have it up and running within the week.
    This website is set-up specifically for eBay and most all of the products will compete on eBay.

    I know many of you are sceptical of this kind of business which is why I have set it up in a way that anyone here on this forum can test run for free and order sample products. Anyone from Salehoo may test run the full service for free and order products for as little as 2.99 and free shipping anywhere in the world.
    Anyone on Salehoo may use my service completely free for 30 days. This will give everyone a chance to sell my items on eBay receive orders and ship to their customers without any up front costs.
    To continue using my service for longer than 30 days will cost 20$ per month. That’s it! No other fees or hidden costs. This will give every person who tries my service a chance to see if they are able to make a profit. And if you do which I am sure many will, you may continue without commitment as long or short as you like.
    Before signing-up, each individual will see the costs for every item on my website as both retail and wholesale/dropship. By the way, wholesale and dropship prices are exactly the same. This give you the ability to to search the products on eBay and look at the final sales price.
    Wholesale will only benefit on orders of 200 dollars or more which will receive free FedEx. The website is actually geared towards dropshipping.
    The majority of items ship free to anywhere on the planet. On some items, the cost is so small, I have to charge a 2$ processing fee. In many cases, this can be circumvented by filling other orders at the same time to make a larger order.
    I will leave the rest until my website is up and running and I have been approved by Salehoo admin to advertise it here on Salehoo.
    Below are some samples of the products on my website. As you can see, the images are unique and the best part is you can design you own which pretty much resolves the saturation issue. Virtually no product is the same as anyone elses.

    Hi Planes. Really cute & unique items. Can't wait to see your full site up & running.

    What's the turn around time for shipping? I know lots of drop shippers can sometimes take up to 2 weeks.

    Good luck!

    Just wanted to update everyone who had interest in my new website.

    There are a couple of bugs I am in the process of resolving. Once this is complete it will be posted to the internet.

    The servers I am using are pretty large and there is a lot of code.

    It has to be running perfect because a lot of stuff happens on the sight. It's not just a bunch of product with a price next to it but a good amount of interaction
    such as MS Silverlight and file transfer.

    As soon as it is up and I get Salehoo approval, ( Which is in Process.) I will post it here for everyone.

    No prob. As soon as I can get my seller status here on Salehoo, I will send you the info. My hands are tied until I get approval though.

    My site is up and running so if and when this happens I will post it here.

    Number 1. Being a middle man does not make you a scammer,
    otherwise every wholesaler on the planet would be a
    scammer.

    I would suggest that you do not try to
    destroy a respected members reputation with what
    amounts to nothing more than stupidity.

    Number 2. I have no idea of the business structure, however I
    am sure Planes will be more than happy to answer
    questions for himself when he logs in.

    Number 3. I would caution any member considering asking you for
    an untested link via a private message at this VERY
    EARLY stage of your membership.

    Funny how two new members without any posts show up to call me a scammer.

    Did I step on any toes?

    When I finally get approval to post my website here I will do so.

    Let me just say, there are no markups on any of the products. My profits are made from volume of re-sellers and my own retail sales. There is not one cent of markup on any of my products to resellers.

    If people feel like they have to attack me for offering one of only a few legit dropship business opps. then so be it.

    i myself have no problem w/ a middleman. not saying thats what you are, just replying to that post. if i cant find something and someone else can, and if i can make a decent profit after there slight mark-up then its a win-win! if i cant make a profit of it, then i won't buy it, just part of the business. and definitely not a scam

    Everyone's goal on Salehoo is to make money. If it weren't then this would just be a wasted exercise.

    My purpose here is to offer a legitimate dropship opportunity where members can make money and I can as well.

    I really look forward to finally listing my website as I feel I have a lot to offer in products and knowledge.

    Not everyone will do business with me and not everyone will like my business. But it will be a perfectly legit means to earn money on eBay.
