I am trying to find a supplier who will supply us with datafeeds such as chinavasion or lightinthebox. Do these companies know what I am talking about as I never get any reply and cannot get hold of them.

Is there anyone who can help me!!

Hi private1,

Welcome to SaleHoo!

To search for suppliers who can provide product data feeds, type in 'data feed' into the search box. Here are the suppliers that came up:

Link hidden: Login to view

If you read into each of these supplier's profile pages, the description declares they offer live inventory through data feeds. The thing is, there are a lot more suppliers capable of doing this but didn't come up in the list because such keywords were not mentioned in their description. So if you have any particular supplier in mind, you may get in touch with them directly to confirm.

We are sorry to hear that you are having difficulty getting in touch with Chinavasion and LightInTheBox.com. I will try to get in touch with them on your behalf.

Let me know if you need help searching for suppliers. I'll be very glad to help you out! :)

Have a nice day!


Irene

Glad to see you on the forum, private1 :)

Another thing that can help us help you is letting us know what particular products you are interested in. This will help narrow down our search and hopefully land you a dropshipper that can provide you your needs for live data feeds.

Like Irene has said it is often best to get in touch with the supplier directly to confirm if they do offer live data feed services.

By the way, when you have the time kindly add your photo to your profile :)

Cheers!

Hello ladies thank you for your feedback.

We have designed our website to pull the data which is the item been sold with pictures, details etc...
We then take the price of the item which is usually sold in dollars and convert it to our South African currency which is in Rands.
The system then adds our markup on that price.
Depending on shiping it also does the exact same and give our client a total in rands. This is all done automatically.
Our problem is once they take the product off their website or add anything new we have to manually look or trace this.
If we have the data feed of the products then the system can update our site on a weelkly / daily basis depending on the data feed they supply.

Do I make any sense?

Thanks for adding your photo, private1 :)

I think I understand the type of service you are looking for. Honestly not many supplier offer this right now but as Irene suggested it is best that you contact suppliers that you are interested in.

Or you can let us know the type of products are looking for and we will try to locate suppliers that can provide you data feed services.

Cheers!
