Default Lists of dropshippers

For those of you that don't know a dropshipper is a retailer that allows you to sell their products and when you make a sale they will ship the item for you and not use their name on the shipping. Some will even use your address labels and include your literature in the packaging. This is great for the small ebayer as it means you don't have to handle, nor arrange storage for, any stock. Some do require a membership fee but quite a lot don't.

You will probably seen people trying to sell lists for about $30/£30 or there abouts. So I say stuff them. If you use a dropshipper or, even better, have access to any lists of dropshippers then post them in here for others to share.

And to get the ball rolling here is my list:

Thanks for starting this thread - this is exactly what I have been looking for (and didn't want to pay the 'costs' that other people charge for this info).

Unfortunately, I don't have any links to share - but if I do, I'll come right back!

I actually found a lot of mine by doing a serach on google for the following

Quote:
dropship -alien -mechwarrior -"peace force"
the -'s are to stop it displaying sites based on the Alien movies and on games that use dropships.

Thanks for the tip - that's really useful.

Think now I'll make a list of drop-shippers and then sell it for an extortionate amount....just kidding ;)

Always remember, there are drop shippers and manufacturers who will ship for you. There is a difference.

I don't have a huge directory but my site fits here... http://supplierlocator.com - The company profiles indicate dropshipping yes/no (that is if the company filled out that field!).

Default Dropshippers and More....

Hi All,
I am surprised I did not see on the list www.HotBuy4U.com they are a big dropshipper. Please do not think that Ebay is the only game in town though. If you are looking for less expensive places to sell your product checkout our site www.Bid-City.com

<Edit: Please stay focused on the original topic, and refrain from using the forums as a means of advertisement. Thanks! - Brittany, Forum Host>

Default More Dropshippers

This is an excellent idea Carbonize! Here are my suggestions:

http://www.wholesalemarketer.com

They actually aggregate several dropshippers into one site which is nice cause you only have to setup one account with them and then you have access to several different warehouses.

http://www.wholesale411.com/cgi-bin/...s=dropshippers

They are also a great spot to search for additional wholesale inventory.

For a monthly fee, per wharehouse. Plus a "small handling fee" per order. Maybe you pay extra for convience, but this is not really your typical dropshipper.

I'm not saying that there's no money to be made there, but I might be thinking that.

Default 140 UK Dropshippers

Hi There,

This is my first post in this forum, I was passing by and noticed you are looking for dropshippers. This site has a free list of 140 UK dropshippers and the list keeps growing and growing. It's a zero charge list but you should sign up to the newsletter to make sure that you get the best FREE sources. A monthly newsletter puts a new supplier in the spotlight which is really useful.

http://www.ignite-systems.co.uk/the_list.htm

Please get in touch with me if you like what you see.

Mike.

Important!

Read this article before you do anything with drop shipping. Really!

"Beware of Drop Shipping 'Agents'!"

You'll be glad you did.

Have a Productive Day Everyone!

And there I was thinking of offering a service to set up drop shipping websites, and do the integration....

Still, I wouldnt be doing it as described, I would be offering to handle the technical details and not hiding the actual dropshippers or dictating which ones are used.

Also, when you are dropshipping, you are responsible for the sale to the customer. If they dont recieve the item, it is on your head. Something some people dont seem to realise (at least under UK law, you as the "middle man" have the contract to supply the goods to the customer). So it would be a damn good idea to vet your chosen dropshippers.

I'm the I.T. Director and webmaster for an "As Seen on TV" distributing firm. Salco wholesales and dropships about 400 of the products advertised on TV; from "Space Bags" through "Little Giant Ladders".

The warehouse we ship from is approx 30 feet from my desk through three doors, and I can bug the manager back there anytime I want <g>.

EZdropshipper.com isn't as nicely SEO'd as many of the sites I see linked on this forum, but I'm still learning.

Default Corporate Sites

Hi Again,

This topic seems to be quite hot. I have a lot of experience in setting up and marketing these sites. I have had 10 clients in the last 2 months and all shops are online and trading using LEGITIMATE dropshippers NOT agents.

A recent site sold for over £2000.00 after being marketed by us for 6 months, it turned over around £1260.00 in profits using the dropshipping business model.

There is a short illustration of this exact business at the following link:

http://www.ignite-systems.co.uk/case%20study.htm

This contains screendumps and information about dropshipping.


Mike.
