Hi,
Could you please let me know if you know of any dropshippers from the UK that supply brand names (such as disney) childrens bedding, toys, shoes or clothes to Australia?

This is also probably an inappropriate question, but can you advertise brand new ebay items on your website, then if you make a sale, purchase the product from ebay and ship it to your customer?

Thanks
Leanne

Hi,

I emailed a few of the sites below last night and they all said they don't dropship to Australia because of the shipping costs...

Does anyone have any suggestions of how to get around the problem of shipping costs from UK and US?
They have sooo many great dropshippers...

As far as my question regarding ebay - if i see an item that I think I would like to sell, can I advertise it on my website? Then if it does sell (with my profit added), buy the product off ebay and ship it to my customer? I'm asking this because of the huge variety of products on ebay, that you can't find elsewhere!

Hello again Leanne,

Sorry I really thought that they would ship to Australia as they do offer international shipping. At this point the only suggestion I can think of is seeking the services of a mail forwarding company. For example in the US you can use MYUS.com to forward your parcels/orders in one consolidated shipment.

I haven't really encountered this and I'm not sure if this is truly okay. But I don't really see any laws/policies being broken when you do.. Just a couple of concerns though, the risk of your customer's finding out that the item is currently listed on eBay is present and they my find and just go directly to eBay and buy it there and what if your customer will want a refund for the item- won't the entire process be a bit complicated?

Although, many wholesalers are now selling directly on eBay so it might be okay and your plan might just work.

All the best!
