I know in all business it doesn't always take your own money to make more money. Im low in capital and want to get started right away making money on the internet and ebay. If you have information and tips please help me. It'll be much appreciated.

Its a good idea to start on ebay with selling things from around the house that you don't need anymore - thats how I started. Then buying from garage sales and selling on ebay.
You could also try dropshipping since you don't have to purchase up front, I use Link hidden: Login to view for dropshipping digital cameras and mobile phones

Yeah they are very good, they ship the items out as soon as they receive payment. My customers usually get their cameras within a few days. Only problem I have ever had was a couple of items I ordered then told they had sold out, but that was only a couple of times, usually stocks are ok. They do have a reserve system too where if you want to you can reserve the stock for 10 days.

you purchased dropshipper network? Well I think their prices are good, not on every single item but on a lot. I've made profits with them selling on ebay

Aloha, I'm very new here and the threads have been very interesting,
I am about to purchase the netdropshipper program
is this a bad choice? I have a laughable amount of capital
but oh well,
a few of you have said good things about this program.
is it standard to pay $24.00 a month with them ?

are many of their products capable of generating any income on an auction site or do I have to have a web site?

I do have alot of time to dedicate to this, and I'm hoping that this will make a little bit of a difference.

wow there are so many sharks out there trying to snarf down our hard earned green backs

oh and i am interested in the tennis rackets Aloha Toni

Hi ali7n7.1

The one I mentioned above is called dropshipper network or Link hidden: Login to view I think this may be a different one to the one you mentioned netdropshipper. dropshipper network charge a joining fee of $14.90US and thats a one off fee. I have been happy with them and sell cameras on ebay through them. You might want to research the other one - netdropshipper - I haven't used them but I've got a feeling I remember seeing some bad reviews on them

No just a one off joining fee. You can purchase website through them which list all their items but I don't recommend that they are quite expensive for them to set them up. The other option they offer is to rent a website which I think is $24.90 a month, but you don't have to do that it is just an option if you wanted to - then you have your own website with their stock listed in it. But you don't have to like I said, you can just sell on ebay or even have your own website that you can set up yourself - probably cheaper

dropshippernetwork doesn't seem that cheap. Its free to sign up, btw. If their prices included shipping, it'll be worth it but they don't.

4GB ipod is $216US

Although it's probably a good site if you just want to buy one item for yourself

I find this on their FAQ section:
6. Do you require a minimum order amount or can I simply purchase one item at a time for my customers?
The main reason we start Dropshipper Network is to help the small player who can not afford to buy in bulk. Therefore, we do not have a minimum order amount for each purchase.


I wonder if anyone can pm me some of their price lists :/ Thanks alot

Hi all,

Sorry this may sound silly but how exactly does dropshipping work? The item is won on ebay (lets say) the buyer then pays money to the dropshipper and the dropshipper sends the profit to you?? I am really confused :?

Also, I have actually been emailing dropshippernetwork for the past week and have found that they are fantastic to deal with (but they will not give any prices without you paying the joining fee)

I am quite interested in joining, as I too have very little capital and this looks like it could be a great way to start off.

I would love it if I too could have some prices pm to me :D

Thanks

I am after the Xbox 360 Uk spec do Link hidden: Login to view have these ? If they do can somebody be so kind and tell me how much they want and what shipping is to the UK ? I am fed up of paying for information and not getting anywhere.

Thanks

With dropshipping, you list the item and the buyer pays you. You then order it from your dropshipper, who ships it to the buyer and usually uses your return address.

Hi All

Yes i joined dropshippernetwork last week before joining salehoo. They do charge a $14.90 US fee. I found them to be quite expensive, especially the mobiles, but i was considering the cameras seeing as i sell on ebay and the profits wont be that big. Shezz you are from Australia, (I am too), I was worried about buying from them incase they sent goods that werent made for australian standards, such as the charger we need for our plugs etc? Do you recommend them? Can a decent profit be made?. Thanks, Christine. :)
