Hi all,

Been selling for awhile now (using a few suppliers from the directory....of course!). Know I'm looking to get the latest in games for PC/Xbox One/PS4 as well as the latest DVD set from the popular shows that are currently showing (merchandise to compliment these would also be desirable).

As I'm based in Australia I wanted to see if anyone knows who the other big sellers from ebay as well as the department stores go to to order such items? Doesn't have to be distributors/companies within Australia but if they are based here that would help.

Cheers

Hi Peter,

I used to be in that market myself years ago with a partner and we were importing ours for the UK. Activision in the UK was a great distributor, but that had a base account establishment fee or 10K per monthly spend minimum. So pretty serious money to outlay, but that secured you some very good pricing.

The biggest competition for Australia was coming from Hong Kong sellers, it was prices from Hong Kong that finally squeezed us at out the new release market. We hung in on the second hand market for a while, but just didn't generate the cashflow to make the effort worth while, so we folded. Not sure if Hong Kong sellers are still dominating the market here now, but I would suggest if they are, then Hong Kong would be the place to look for distribution opportunities.

Cheers

Hi Mark,

Thanks for that and will definitely consider it. How would one go about looking for those suppliers in Hing Kong? I suppose my other question is would they be legitimate releases or bootleg?

Hello Peter,

You can narrow down your search results by specifying results from certain categories on Link hidden: Login to view. Also you can further filter your searches to show:

- Suppliers in certain regions of the world.
- Whether they ship internationally.
- Whether they have minimum order quantity requirements.
- Whether they require or do not require a sales tax ID.
- Supplier ratings.
- The type of supplier (Wholesaler/Dropshipper/Liquidator/Manufacturer).

To do this, simply click on "more options" (found under the listed categories) at the bottom portion of the categories.

We have no official guarantee for our suppliers, but we only add suppliers to our database that either accept a secure form of payment (meaning you can get your money back should something go wrong) or have a proven track record of excellent service.

For these reasons we have very few issues with suppliers failing to supply goods to customers.

In the unlikely event that you do have a problem with a supplier, please file a complaint by clicking the link on the supplier's profile page within SaleHoo. We will immediately take steps to resolve the situation and get your money back.

Hi, Have you had a look at Global Sources? I think they would have what your looking for at really great prices you would get a great return :-)
Good Luck

Hi Peter,

Just spoke to Shane about it and she confirms that have been reviewed, confirmed and invited to join the directory. However, up till now we haven't had a response to the invitation. Of course that just means that aren't listed, but passed our verification confirmation process.

Cheers
