Hello I'm new here and I did some research and haven't found what I want to find.

Anyway if anyone of you can suggest a supplier that's a wholesaler/dropshipper that sells any products that is 100% original branded products and ships worldwide.

Thanks in advance.

You may want to try and narrow your specifics, and give support an idea where you want to sell the products, but if you contact them through Link hidden: Login to view with that type of information, they will do their best to find you some buying leads.

Hi reygreatdealshop,

Welcome to SaleHoo!

Lots of people are under the impression that electronics is a highly profitable market. Unfortunately, this simply isn't true. Electronics is actually one of the most competitive markets online. The electronics industry has always run on very low margins from wholesalers to end users and marketplaces like eBay have only tightened the margins even further.

Most electronics sell at the wholesale price or below wholesale on eBay. That's how intense the competition is.

How do these sellers make money? Well plenty of them don't. If you checked back on some of these sellers in a couple of months time, you may well find that they are out of business. As for the others, they use some very canny sourcing and marketing tricks, which we've listed below.

The point is, the number of sellers present in the electronics market is deceiving. It's much more difficult to make money in this market than it appears.

We have some suggestions for how you can make money in electronics, but first, is there any particular reason why you wish to sell in this market? While we don't wish to discourage you completely, a lot of people find electronics much tougher than they thought, and we think it's only fair to warn you!

There are plenty of other excellent items to sell online that return higher margins and we are happy to give you some suggestions if you need them. If you do wish to stick with the electronics industry, then here is what we suggest:

* Use liquidation suppliers to get bulk lots at prices well below wholesale.
* OR: Purchase from wholesalers in very large quantities (and when we say very large, we mean a spend of $200,000 or more) - this is how the big eBay powersellers do it.
* Increase your feedback and get powerseller status BEFORE entering the electronics market. This will give you more visibility in the search.
* Sell via your own website or your eBay store if possible, as buyers generally pay more from these venues than eBay.
* Add third-party extras and up-sells to your orders. These will help you bump up your margins to a much more acceptable level.
* Better still - consider selling accessories for electronics rather than electronics themselves. Accessories are very popular, have less competition, cost less to ship and have much greater margins.

Here are a few of our top suppliers for electronic gadgets:

Hi Richelle,

Thanks for providing detailed information on the electronics products. I am also a beginner so would not jump into hi-end electronics right now. Do you have a list for your recommended electronics accessories suppliers ?

I am not able to understand what is 'third-party extras and up-sells' - could you please explain little bit?

Hi shafaat.ahsan,

Everybody's in search for such a product but it's quite hard to pinpoint a certain product and say that this is. Finding a product with a high profit margin usually means finding a niche market.

Here are some products we have found to have good profit margins:

- Clothing
- Skin care (e.g. anti-ageing & acne treatment)
- Vacation-related items (swimsuits, crocs, sunblock)
- Homewares (towels, sheets)
- Accessories for electronics
- Crafts & hobby items
- Sporting goods
- Computers & computer parts
- Auto & motorbike
- Unique items/collectibles

However, bear in mind that we give out this list to anyone who asks! It is always most profitable to come up with your own niche market. One of the best ways of doing this is just by selling some stuff from around the house that you no longer need any more. In the process, you will often stumble across items that sell really well that you would never have otherwise picked!

Also, here's a post that you may find helpful. Please have a read:

Hi mah912,

If you are in search for mobile phone accessories , please check out these suppliers:

Hope you find the accessories you're looking for.

An upsell is an additional product offered at a discounted price. For example when you purchase SaleHoo you are given the chance to purchase a Sky High Auctions account at a discounted price. Sky High Auctions is the upsell product in this situation. An upsell may or may not be related to the original product that you are buying. If it is not related and is from a different company then you can refer to it as a third party upsell or extra.

Cheers! :)
