First and foremost, I sell on eBay so I’m always getting crushed the plan is to get a little something going then switch over to my own shit maybe a little bit of Amazon and other platforms but anyway now that that’s the way

More specifically what I mean easy or hard giggity is do you guys see higher margins with suppliers that have a lot of friction and you gotta verify and do a bunch of bullshit nobody in there right mind wants to do

Or

Do you just go with the easiest option and still make good money

I know it matters on the niche , a whole bunch of other shit but I’m just strictly talking about sourcing

I’m kinda also of the belief that dropshipping does work, but he’s got his limitations

I myself consistently find, the more accessible suppliers with little to no friction at all often have the least margins or negative margins

Let me know your thoughts I’m very curious on what you guys see

I’ve seen some crazy margins that don’t even look real because one supplier that I was considering had backorder inventory I can’t really trust them right now because I got limited capital even if I go with PayPal because they’re not consistent to my knowledge, I haven’t tried them yet

Send me photos and prices of what you got I wanna buy em’ brand new and sealed

If the price is right, I’ll buy multiple and in bulk

Can’t reveal my secrets but I shit you not if your prices are good people will buy you out like it’s nothing

First things first I ain’t no danm guru and yea I’m kinda trying to flex but also inspire

I used to try sexual wellnes, dog toys, washer machine parts, and alibaba bullshit but I stumbled apon some shit I didn’t even know it just came from trial and error

I’m dropshipping on eBay I’ve real life gotten thousand dollar+ offers for one product this shit dose work so there is hope fuck anyone who says dropshipping is dead

And it’s high margin not larping I could have made 1000$ off one product and that’s all I needed to see personally

And ya I got screenshots for anyone trying to test me

I no lie listed the shit on eBay and I can’t make this shit up I had 10 views and one person wanted to buy me out

Now, did I fuffill those orders unfortunately no because it came down to a shaky supplier I don’t trust and I’m still working it out but I learned somthing over a few months…

I’m working on finding a more trustworthy suppliers

There’s not a one size fits all way to go about dropshipping or biz in general

Suppliers are a pain in the ass to find there’s no easy way around that shit

Buying from Walmart or any big name store your going to get cooked find some lowkey shit or a real distributor or wholesaler everyone is digging in that cookie jar and margins will get crushed without a doubt it becomes a commodity instead of a product

eBay kinda sucks for finding inventory it can work short term but it’s best to get a real supplier who is working with the brand you want to sell key word brand you want to sell so you don’t waste time

It’s going to take a few weeks a few days a few seconds whatever the case maybe homie that shit goin take some time to find yo shit baby! so strap the fuck in your still cooking

If you constantly have to hunt for shit becuase you think arbitrage is the way like I mentioned above sourcing from target best buy or Walmart or some bs Chinese platform real players don’t do that shit rethink again do a little bit of arbitrage from real suppliers and stock when you get comfortable

Here’s my tips

Filter aggressively

Aim for 150 or less listings

You might not have seen it but you’ll know what real demand looks like especially if you have a unfair supply advantage

Kill dead products fast 1-2 weeks but ideally you should get a feel for the shit in a few days

Scale winners quick but don’t jump the gun and have your ass out feel it out see the data

Again product research is going to be key

See the profitable brands suppliers have not all of em have the same shit or same margins

Once you know the shit sells go ahead and take control of the reigns and buy some stock yea you might have to ship it yourself but who gives a fuck figure it out use a 3pl or 4pl if you have to

If eBay can’t find the shit you iether have a rare ass product or the product has a supply issue other or probably best to skip it and save time your not there to play frogger with the algorithm your here to build a kick ass biz

List fast or your ass is grass don’t take up all danm day for your polished listing to not do shit polish it when it’s doing numbers getting offers

Price will tell you the demand if there’s a lot of listings with one price aim for that or lower

Also it’s more beneficial to list on eBay at first because you get real invoices from your suppliers if you choose this route with real distributors and wholesalers

There’s a thousand other ways people do it but this is what works for me

Yw ya lousy bastads 🤪
