Hi, I'm Karen, also new member. Dont know what to sell looking at jewellery but cant find a good cheap distributor of quality real jewellery. Keep up the good work Regina, do you sell on ebay or elsewhere. Would like to try something elsa as well but when I look at the margins on a lot of products a lot on ebay go for less than what we would have to pay for them. I have no idea what to look into that is going to turn a profit or what or what sort of items to go for or even where is the best place to post them. Good luck guys. Karen

Hi there, I'm Bryan, it's good to see that there are a number of members here from australia. I'm just new here, if you don't mind me asking, is there a supplier that you can recommend for mens/womens clothing. I'm just browsing through the suppliers list that are australia-based but i couldn't see any that offers a good potential product list. Looks like I might end up importing it from overseas. I'm just after generic clothing (unbranded). Any help would be appreciated.

My name is Noeleen & I just signed up today. I live in Geelong. I haven't had a chance to look around the site much yet but I do have a question that perhaps one of you may be able to help with. Where on the site can we search for Australian based dropshippers & wholesalers? Thanks for starting this thread Robby as I had thoughts along the same line. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Karen sorry i havent replied earlier..been extrememly busy with ebay lately..Yes i sell on ebay and i am doing extremely well..When i first started i was exactly like you didnt know where to go or what to sell.The first item i bought to resell was a few mens designer clothes..Which i was so suprised how much i actually got for them...So that made me more determined..It was extremely difficult to find authentic wholesale designer clothing that you could actually make a good profit from..I even nearly bought from china...but decided i didnt want to fool people into believing that what i was selling was authentic...So i dont buy from china at all..i just browsed and browsed the internet...typed in exactly what i was looking for contacted all of them..Asked them many many questions..Big question to ask is Do they guarantee that the products u are buying are authentic..where do they get them from. and do they refund 100% of your money if you find they are not authentic...Luckily i have found my two suppliers who do...
ebay have this policy if you sell fake or replicas you will be suspended...FALSE....Now that i know what the fake designer clothing look like as i have been (i think) to every fake site on the internet..i would say 90% of the designer clothing that are for sale on ebay are FAKE..I dont know of any australian wholesalers...I got some great bargains from a designer clearance sale in Melbourne a few months back ...Look on the internet for clearance sales in your area..If u give them your email address they will let you know when and where they are held each month..Ive tried oztion auction but had no luck with them at all....so i will stick to ebay..The Netherlands are a good place to buy from All their products what i have encountered are authentic..And actually a lot of designer clothing is made in India...billabong for one...which i didnt know..until recently...but i could have found out that earlier if i would have looked at their tags..But if you looking for unbranded clothing i cant see how that would be too difficult to find if you give me your email address i can send you some sites for you to look at.....

Hi reginadp53 , Im a fellow aussie,victoria, i joined here awhile ago with intention of opening a store in my town , but never got into it , im interested in your discoveries of sites you found in netherlands, ive surfed the net so many times in search of good sites for designer clothg and struggled. i know australia doesnt have any decent sites..i have found a couple also in my trecks, maybe we can share some ideas on sites. i found a rippa awhile ago on D&G clothing , was an italian site , seems too good to be true . im yet to purchase from them as im still sniffing them out to see if they are legit. So anyone thats willing to throw a few good designer clothing sites my way would be much appreciated!
thanks
dan

Hi All,
Im also new to this site, orig from NZ and living back in Sydney.
Im looking into and have been tirelessly researching for months now, and trying to find good wholesalers of womens clothing/accessories in Australia, it sadly seems like there are not many Australian members here and there is only info best used for the US. Just like all the other websites :(
Can anyone offer help, advise or suppliers info as i would like to buy stock asap and dive in.
Any help and support would be greatly received!
Regina how are you going, any info :)
