Thank you. :)

So I searched all the forum and I didn't found anything. All prices are awful. I see to ebay sellers. They are selling 20-50$ cheper than all suppliers listed here. So I don't know what to do. Maybe ask money back? I wrote message to the support. Waiting what they would say. :)

What you are finding is not unusual if you are looking at drop shipping on ebay.

Drop Shipping will rarely be an option to sell on a site like ebay because of the saturated market. You have to also remember that you're not just competing against other drop shippers on ebay, you're trying to compete against big sellers that are buying in truck loads of this stuff at a time, then selling for very low margins for quick turn over.

It makes it impossible to compete with, unless you are investing the same amount as they are and are happy to settle for a low return on that investment.

I found many sellers on ebay who are starters like me and their prices is a lot smaller than all suppliers listed here.
I think there are many suppliers selling cheaper, but they aren't registered here.

The obvious question is how do you know that they are starters like you?

At the end of the day you will believe what you want to believe, but if you think these suppliers exist, all I can do is wish you good luck in finding them

Ok, but I'm not satisfied, because I didn't find suppliers which I really need. And I wrote for support some information, but nothing answered yet... :(

Unsure when you wrote to support, but give them till the start of the week to respond, then if nothing, forward your question to my PM and I'll see that it gets to the right person.

Cheers

they may or may not be starters like you or me, but that doesn't necessarily mean they're dropshipping. stick around cause there is a wealth of knowledge in these forums and many people here w/ a lot of experience in this business willing to lend you all the advice you need. fudjj is probably right about the truckloads, makes it almost impossible for people like us to compete. its a rough business that takes a lot of research and an open mind. if your intent on finding some magical dropshipping list, go ahead and get your refund. if you want to learn how to make a living online, stick around. i've learned so much here and it was worth every penny

First I have to end the school so I can't all the time sit here and read.
Second I can't create company which would be available to use dropshippers or wholesalers in the USA.
Third I didn't find any suppliers.
So I'm dissapointed that I can't make money as you. :)
Thank you.

First off we don't just sit around here and read ! Secondly you say you go to school ? What do you study ? Obviously it is nothing to do with starting a business online or you would want to sit around here and read because the first thing you need to do is read everything you can in order to LEARN how to properly market these golf clubs you so desperately seek.

I assume you are not located in the USA and unfortunately the top golfing equipment manufacturers are, see you have formed an opinion that you will find this magic website full of golf equipment, and then you can run off to Ebay and be in the riches, that is what 99% of people believe, but it is a fairy tale, and no where near as easy. Even if it was this is what would happen, and it is due to inexperienced people who believe they have to sell the cheapest thing on Ebay.

A company lets call them xyz decides they are going to distribute golf clubs to drop shippers, so they get 20 different types of golf clubs in their inventory.
People who are wanting to sell these golf clubs go to their site and they get the clubs for 100.00 wholesale, the first guy puts the clubs on Ebay for $150.00 and is making a good steady profit, then comes seller #2 who puts them on for $145.00 now he is making a good profit and not the first guy.

Guy #1 says well I will put them on for $140.00 and he is back in the money, but then seller #3 comes in to the picture and he starts selling them for $125.00. Guy 1 and 2 then re list for 120.00,115.00, before too long the golf clubs are selling on Ebay for $110.00.

Which after all the fees are taken out congratulations you just made a whopping $1.00.

I have seen this a million times and it is not due to Salehoo having a poor selection or not having the secret drop shipper, it is due to greed, and people trying to undercut each other because they have 'sat around and read what they were getting into, and how to do it properly. '
