Looking for hot products to sell in Australia

Hi Everybody,

I am a newbie on E-commerce. I am Based in Sydney and looking for Hot products to sell online to Aussie Customers. I have had decent experience in selling on ebay but ebay margins are getting lower and lower. So decided to have my own importing business, create a website and sell online. I am looking to create a Niche market.I need help on the following:

1) Hot products to import from China and around the world
2) How can i go about looking for the above information on a regular basis and from where?
3) List of Trusted Wholesalers from China and around the world?
4) Shipping from china and list of trusted Shipping companies who will ship to Australia
5) Tax/custom duty information to import in Australia

Any other information that would help me to start off would be appreciated.

Hello Ani,

Welcome to our community :)

Kindly refer to my answers below -

1) Hot products to import from China and around the world

We don't really have a list to give you. You see the kinds of products considered as 'Hot' will change over time so this means that finding what products are hot would entail a lot of research :)

Although we don't have a written list we do provide our members a tool to help them find niche markets/items. If you haven't yet, I recommend trying our Link hidden: Login to view to help you find profitable products to sell.

We also publish every Monday our Monday Market of the Week blogs which features profitable niches (which I search for using our very own Market Research Lab) for you to sell .

2) How can i go about looking for the above information on a regular basis and from where?

I think I just answered this question in my reply above :) But we also have guides to help you come up with what products to sell -

3) List of Trusted Wholesalers from China and around the world?

I can help you with this once you have a specific list of products you want to sell :) Once you do flick me a PM or email or add that list to this thread and I'll start searching for suppliers!

4) Shipping from china and list of trusted Shipping companies who will ship to Australia

Everything and anything that has to do with shipping is beyond our scope since all shipping arrangements will be done by the suppliers themselves. So it is best to ask them directly about this once you have chosen your suppliers.
