Wholesale/Drop Ship Scam Revealed
If you want to acquire products to drop ship or wholesale, where do you look? There are all kinds of wholesale and drop ship list for sale on eBay. There’s bound to be lots of decent companies right?
Not so, according to Chris Malta, the Product Sourcing Editor for eBay Radio:
When you see all these incredible lists and books and packages of wholesaler suppliers and drop shippers for sale on eBay and the rest of the Internet, for anywhere from $5 to $50 or more, what you’re seeing 99% junk.
There are thousands of scammers, snake oil salesmen and just plain lazy profiteers on the Internet who are just lying around waiting to AMBUSH you when you start looking for REAL wholesale suppliers to work with. There is a whole niche industry built up on the Net around this kind of scamming! The people who run these scams have all the moral fiber of a box of hair, and the only reason they even know the word ‘Scruples?is from the TV commercial for the party game.
You may have even fallen prey to one of these scam artists, selling you their “insider” wholesale/drop ship list of suppliers. Me too. I’ve bought so many lists that I can’t even recall how many. I don’t know why, but I tend to find the “good” in people, and I was “sold” by these marketing schemes time and time again, even after being scammed by another. Finally, after so many disappointments, I got FED UP. I decided to get to the bottom of this fascination we all have with wholesale/drop ship companies, and find out if there really were any LEGITMATE drop shippers for buying “hot?consumer products at great prices.
I literally contacted the administrator of every wholesale drop shipping website I could find. Posing as an investor, I managed to convince the owners that I was seriously interested in purchasing their entire website and business. That way, once the dollar signs flashed in their heads, they would give me free access to their member’s areas to review what I would be “buying”. Well, I was disgusted with 99% of what I found. Many of the owners actually boasted about how many people bought their useless subscriptions. I repeatedly found:
outdated lists
non-working links
links leading to other sites that asked for more money
no help section
no real email support
no refunds
I quickly realized that these so-called wholesale/drop ship lists were totally useless. And the owners knew it, yet they were laughing all the way to the bank! Needless to say, I didn’t respond when they asked if I was still interested in buying their websites. Surprisingly, while sitting through all of the scam artist’s websites, I was able to locate a couple of individuals that actually ran legitimate programs.
The owners were every day people like you and me that found a way to make extra money working from home on their computers. Their membership areas were impressive, with a good amount of quality information on how to make $100-$200 per day on your computer doing very little work. I even chatted with a few of their customers in several online forums, and they verified that they were making extra money through the sites. It was like I found a few diamonds in the rough. But don’t take my word for it, you can visit the 10 sites I found below. See what you think.
They do charge a minimal fee for access to their program, which is to be expected for any legitimate company that actually has people on staff who are dedicated to helping you get started. What a friendly group of people! Anyway, if you do decide you are interested in any of the ten companies below, I advise you to join quickly, as the owners have informed me that they are getting so many new members by word of mouth referrals, that they will be closing off membership completely by month’s end. (By the way, you didn’t hear this from me!) They don’t have a large enough staff to accommodate many more people, and they are dedicated to providing excellent service to each person. Well, my search for legitimate Dropship companies has come to an end. I have to say I was thoroughly disappointed with most of what I found, and I strongly advise that you do not take any chances doing business with any companies other than the ten listed below!
Whatever you do, I wish you a healthy, prosperous year for you and everyone you love.
Wholesale Buyers Versus Retail Customers
Are wholesale buyers and retail customers really different? Frankly, there are two answers to this question: yes and no. Yes, because they are different from the buyers and those selling to buyers’ point of view and no, because the principles that apply are the same for both types of buying.
There is only one real difference, aside that one buys at wholesale prices and the other at retail prices, and that is that wholesale buyers are looking for a selection of items to fill a space or their customers’ needs, while retail buyers are looking for one item to fill a space or need. When there isn’t any space that needs filling either now or in the future, the customer won’t be interested in what you have for sale, which means zero sales.
Both wholesale and retail buyers are looking for things that can be either complementary or in contrast to what the are doing or they already have. It is rather a combination of the two (contrast/complementary or complementary/contrast) than a case of complementary or contrast.
Contrast/complementary means it’s different to what they are doing or they have, but will fit in with other things, while complementary/contrast means it’s like what they are doing or already have and yet it’s different. If there is a high contrast and it doesn’t fit in or if it’s exactly what they have, they most likely won’t buy.
There are two things you will have to do to determine if buyers are in a contrast/complementary or complementary/contrast buying situations. First of all, listen to what customers say and think about these two things: why they are asking the question that way and where they got the idea that generated the question. This is called “listening between the lines”. Often, through their questions, customers will tell you what they are looking for. In case they don’t, ask them yourself. It helps you by showing interest in what they are doing and their answers will help you make your presentation. Plus, since you know that they are looking for something to fill a need or hole, it becomes much easier to relate to customers’ needs.
The second way to detect their situation is to have customers talk about their favorite subject themselves. Encourage wholesale customers to talk about their shop/gallery, what they have been doing lately, etc. As for the retail customers, get them to talk about the other craft works they currently own and enjoy. Often they will talk about the things that they feel very good about. Sometimes they will talk about the things that they don’t feel very good about, but they will do it as a way of saying they won’t repeat that mistake.
Sales will be made when customers understand how the merchandise you are selling fits into what they are doing, planning to do, or would like to do, so apply the contrast/complementary – complementary/contrast theory to what they are contemplating buying.
Wholesale Start-Up Plan: Choosing the Right Distribution Channel
Any business needs two basic things to survive: customers and products.Products can be services or actual goods.We will examine the different channels for obtaining goods for resell in your business or marketplace, as well as examine two different scenarios to help you decide which channel is right for your business.
Obtaining goods is done primarily through four methods, or channels:
directly from the manufacturer.
·Through a wholesaler
·Through a distributor
·Through a supplier
Each channel has different requirements and costs associated with it. For most businesses, they will deal exclusively with only one channel.Many times it is not the business itself that dictates what channel will be used, but rather the volume and size of that business as well as the channels available. Not all four channels are available for all products, and in some cases there may only be one channel available no matter what volume your business requires.
The first channel is the manufacturer who actually makes the product.Smaller companies often sell directly to other businesses because they are new to the market, or do not have business capital required to work through other channels.In situations such as this, you will deal with internal sales staff at the manufacturer who will handle all aspects of purchase, delivery logistics and billing.
A wholesaler usually works with the manufacturer to provide quantities of goods to other retail outlets or businesses.Often, they may also be the distributor of the product as well.A wholesaler is usually only interested in volume sales and does not sell single or low-quantity lots of the products.In situations such as this the manufacturer sells only to its wholesalers, who in turn sell to businesses or distributors.The manufacturer may be the wholesaler in some casesThey usually handle all logistics involved in getting the merchandise to your location, as well as billing for the products and delivery.
Distributors often sell in lower quantity lots and purchase the goods from a wholesaler.In some cases, the distributor is also the wholesaler. Often distributors may be regional in scope.A distributor may also act as a customer relationship manager between the manufacturer and the business purchasing the goods.They will often come to the business to suggest ways of improving sales, layout of the display and answer any questions or concerns that business has about the product.
Suppliers may sell to small businesses with low volume or to individuals directly.In some situations you may have to go to their showroom or warehouse to pick up the goods yourself. Suppliers are often used when distributors and/or wholesalers do not deal in small enough quantities for a business.They can also be used when there is no distribution method available to move goods easily through a fragmented retail environment with fluctuating sales and purchase patterns. Furthermore, some suppliers may act as a drop-shipper on your behalf warehousing the goods and shipping directly to your customers.
It is important to realize that with each layer in the distribution channel the cost of the goods increase.This is why large retail firms, such as Kroger, can purchase a can of tuna at a much lower price than a small, independent grocer can. Kroger is purchasing directly from the wholesaler, whereas the independent grocer is purchasing from a regional supplier or distributor who has purchased from the wholesaler.
Let’s examine two scenarios to explain which method may work best for your business.We’ll assume that all four channels are available to us.
Scenario #1: Large or Growing Business with Significant Up-Front Capital
The larger the volume you can purchase, the lower the price will be for each individual unit.This is why Kmart, Wal-Mart and Kroger can offer lower prices as compared to independent retailers.Doing so requires a significant capital investment as well as the ability to warehouse and move a large quantity of merchandise through your business.
In this scenario, you would deal directly with a wholesaler who would handle the logistics for delivery of the merchandise to your location.Often this be through their dedicated truck fleet, or through your own fleet who will pick up the merchandise directly from the wholesaler.
The key here is the ability to move those goods through your business or retail channel quickly.The longer an item sits on a shelf or in a warehouse, the less profit is made.Even if you purchase at a lower price by buying a larger quantity, if an item has to be warehoused for long periods of time then the cost of storing that item quickly erodes the price break obtained for that product.
Scenario #2: Small Business Wishing to Maintain a Low Overhead or Buy in Small Quantities
In this situation you have limited capital to invest in goods and do not have the resources available to purchase, store or move large quantities of goods. Here you would benefit more by dealing directly with the distributor or a regional supplier depending on your ability to turn-over the merchandise.
Though your cost per unit will be higher, you will have less overhead expenses (such as storage). However, caution must still be used especially when there are other businesses in your area that carry similar products.If they can significantly undercut your price because of the quantity they purchase, you have to rethink if it benefits you to carry that particular item.
This method also benefits businesses that are just getting started.As your volume grows, you will be able to purchase in larger quantities and can negotiate lower prices or move to a different distribution channel.
It is important to research and evaluate all the channels available to you when deciding to purchase merchandise for your business.Market factors, competition and availability will all play a factor in deciding what products to carry and how to obtain them.

Wholesale Xbox 360 Distributor Myth- Exposed

How many times have you tried to find wholesale xbox 360 games and consoles at bargain prices? I believe the answer is quite a few if you are reading this message. Fact is, searching for wholesale these days is like scrutiny for many business owners. Always in search to possibly get more of the same, big time retail prices.

How many times have you tried to find wholesale xbox 360 games and consoles at bargain prices? I believe the answer is quite a few if you are reading this message. Fact is, searching for wholesale these days is like scrutiny for many business owners. Always in search to possibly get more of the same, big time retail prices.
The reason of why getting 360 systems and its accessories at big time bargain prices is complicated. Everyone that is addicted to wholesale that own them as entertainment, without having to go out from their home and look for them should have the Internet as the best option and everyone that sells tangible game related items needs reliable and profitable distributors for short term and long term profits for their retail stores.
So what does this has to do with a myth? It means that in 2007 the gaming industry will be promising for the sell of tangible items. Not only for 360, but PS3, Nintendo Wii and many of its competitors are going out for the hut of the leadership war in the video games industry. That equals to profits.
And what is the fact of wholesale xbox 360? Since xbox launch its 360 model, numerous wholesale sources have saturated the market appearing as middleman companies. Middleman equally meaning the use of an intermediary to reap some commissions out of a sale, meaning buying wholesale xbox at wholesale gets really complicated if you are not in the business and are a new comer.
The full myth is that being a middleman and posing as a wholesaler is a devil work- it is not. Reality for many of us is that when you buy from a distributor, you buy from a middleman, since distributors buy directly from the manufacturer most of the time or directly from suppliers. This is indeed many of the truth that has never been exposed into many marketing books and many wholesale list sources available online. Kind of hard to swallow when you are a small business owner or just planning to save for your home entertainment needs.
So in a clean and precise conclusion, becoming a distributor is not a devils work. Many eBay power seller friends of many of us are distributors, but many just purchase from the right sources to receive profitable wholesale xbox 360 games and consoles at cheap prices for immediate profits. Get the facts for any kind of business you role in for the beginning of 2007 and so on.
Drop Shipping Pros And Cons: The Cost Of Convenience

Many online sellers tout drop shipping for its ease; others dismiss it, arguing it leaves no room for profit. Like every other product sourcing method, drop shipping brings its own unique set of advantages and drawbacks to your E-Biz:

Many online sellers tout drop shipping for its ease; others dismiss it, arguing it leaves no room for profit. Like every other product sourcing method, drop shipping brings its own unique set of advantages and drawbacks to your E-Biz:
The Basics
Drop shipping is service some wholesale distributors provide that enables you to sell items on your website without physically stocking them. The wholesaler warehouses large quantities of product, which you list in your web store. Your retail customers place their orders with you, and you pass them on to the drop shipper. The drop shipper sends the product directly to your customers, but remains invisible to them. The end result is that your small business appears larger than it really is.
The Upside
According to Jason Sanchez, CEO of One Net Enterprises (http://www.oneinc.com), drop shipping presents your business with numerous benefits:
Lower overhead. Says Sanchez, “The costs that go into warehousing and shipping individual items can be tremendous. It doesn’t become efficient to do so until you do it on a large enough scale.?
No inventory investments. You don’t pay the wholesaler for an order until your customer pays you. And you can test new products without purchasing inventory that may not sell.
Recovered time. The time you spent receiving and organizing inventory, printing labels, and packing and shipping orders is time you can now spend promoting your website and providing faster customer service.
No order minimums. Your wholesale orders are based on your customers?orders. You can order as many or few items as you need ? even down to individual products.
Broader product selection. You can carry items in your product line-up that would be difficult to physically stock; you’re also able to offer large items, such as furniture, without the hassle of trying to ship each piece.
The Downside
Of course, drop shipping has limitations ?two in particular:
Thinner profit margins. Wholesale is a volume business ?the more you buy, the better your price-per-piece. Explains Sanchez, “Although your drop ship prices are true wholesale prices, they are wholesale prices on one item.?You’re not receiving additional discounts for buying bulk, so your per-item-costs are naturally higher. You’re also paying a drop ship fee, either per container or per unique shipping location, to cover the extra labor and material costs the drop shipper incurs.
Occasional delivery issues. If your drop shipper is slow filling your orders, or does a poor job packaging them, it reflects badly on you and costs you repeat business. When using a new supplier, it’s always a good idea to test them out first and get an idea of what your customers will experience. Place an order with them yourself, and see how quickly and competently they handle it. If you order a few of your most popular items, you’ll also have them on hand in case your drop shipper ever runs short.
The Bottom Line
Particularly when you’re getting started, drop shipping is an easy, cost-effective tool for your E-Biz. That doesn’t mean you should limit yourself to using only drop shipping ?the most successful retailers use multiple product sourcing techniques. Drop shipping is a great complement to your other product sourcing methods, and should be a part of your overall product sourcing strategy.
Wholesale Tea: A Market of Possibilities
As the business world grows, the physical globe shrinks as products from all nations become business opportunities for companies of all sizes. A wide variety of items are available and relatively simple to acquire as the internet provides a gateway to export companies from all nations. With the rise in the accessibility of “foreign?countries, one seemingly small item has now exploded onto the market; Wholesale Tea.
Before only available to those with contacts in Eastern nations including, China, Japan, India, and Sri Lanka, wholesale tea has now grown to suppliers in African nations, and importers through out the world, as a simple entry of “wholesale tea?in any search engine will provide users with a list of options supplying not only suppliers of Wholesale Tea, but also suppliers of wholesale tea bags, wholesale gift boxes and gift sets containing tea, and a variety of other similar items.
A now global commerce, items such as gourmet tea bags that you will find on your local supermarket shelf may have traveled from an African wholesale tea supplier, to a manufacturing company in Thailand , to the United States or England or Autstralia where you will find the tea bags in a store sold under a third company’s brand name.
As you may have noticed, the tea bag market has a full listing of names and an even fuller listing of variations. Experimentation with blends and tea bag designs are the current trends in an up and coming business. This is not to say that Wholesale Tea was not available 5 years ago, but the industry has grown far beyond green tea and breakfast tea. Now we see a variety of companies creating an even larger number of options in every facet of the wholesale tea market. In regards to the tea itself, there are a multitude of tea variations, including Jasmine Green Tea, a slight variation on tradition, Rooibos, perhaps the most popular herbal tea, Lemongrass, one of many relatively new herbal teas to the mainstream industry and a very long list of blends.
In the tea bag world, there are few variations with the machine packaged and stapled standard heavily dominating the market. Generally containing a low quality tea dust, these bags focus more on price than quality.
Another design that is available is a pyramid shaped bag. Though packaging may not be as easy and all practicality aside, the quality is generally higher than the standard as some form of loose tea is included inside and the look is potentially more appealing.
The newest entry to the market is a smooth balance between the two. Square and Round shaped, hand sewn bags are now starting to make their way to the industry with a few select companies offering both manufacturing and wholesale tea bag distribution. A new method allowing for design flexibility and the inclusion of high quality loose tea, these gourmet tea bags will put up a good fight against the aforementioned variations.
With the many variables available in both tea blend and tea bag manufacturing, wholesale tea is a prime example of how with the growth of communication and transportation, business opportunities are as easy to find as your kitchen cabinet. With a little creativity and a good manufacturer, any budding entrepreneur looking for an opening, or any currently established business looking to expand, can now step into the Tea bag world.
Wholesalers vs. Wannabes And Drop Shippers

All wholesalers are not created equal. To be exact, there are wholesalers and there are wannabes. Unless you manufacture your own products, you are likely to buy from wholesalers. Many businesses call themselves wholesalers, yet they are ready to sell to the public. One of the tell tale signs of a wannabe wholesaler is that they sell directly to the public.

All wholesalers are not created equal. To be exact, there are wholesalers and there are wannabes. Unless you manufacture your own products, you are likely to buy from wholesalers. Many businesses call themselves wholesalers, yet they are ready to sell to the public. One of the tell tale signs of a wannabe wholesaler is that they sell directly to the public. You may do a search online for a wholesaler in your industry, but when you visit the site you find they are happy to sell to anyone. Wholesaling to such wannabes doesn’t have anything to do with what you knew to mean wholesale; it simply shows their desire to sell a lot to as many people as they can.
A wholesaler with integrity will not sell to the public. Real wholesalers have an application process. They normally require resellers to sign up as a reseller. The application process includes a verification process such as faxing a business permit, or tax ID form to the wholesaler. Deal with real wholesalers, and ignore the wannabes.
Note: Wholesalers should never charge you to become a reseller. Remember, you are their customer. They have no legitimate reason to charge you a setup or initiation fee. If they try to charge you such a fee, walk.
Drop Ship
For several reasons, drop shipping is one of the most popular options for many rookie online entrepreneurs. The primary reason for its popularity is that it doesn’t require a huge startup capital because the drop shipper maintains the inventory. You don’t have to worry about fulfillment either because the product is shipped directly to your customer.
Note: Blind shipping is a common term in the drop shipping industry. It means that your customer will not know that the product was shipped from the drop shipper instead of your address. When your customer receives the package the sender address will show your address instead of the address of the drop shipper. The only disadvantage of blind shipping is that you will receive the returns.
Drop shippers may be factories, wholesalers, distributors, or importers. The advantage of working with a drop shipper is that they provide you with product images and item descriptions. The more sophisticated companies may offer a product feed that will save you time importing all the product images and descriptions into your e-commerce system.

You may have even fallen prey to one of these con artists, selling you their “insider” wholesale/drop ship list of suppliers. Me too. I’ve purchased so many lists that I can’t even recollect how many. I don’t know why, but I tend to find the “good” in people, and I was “sold” by these marketing schemes time and time again, even after being scammed by the latest one. Finally, after so many disappointments, I had HAD ENOUGH. I decided to get to the bottom of this appeal we all have with wholesale/drop ship companies, and find out if there really were any LEGITMATE drop shippers for purchasing “hot?consumer goods at great prices.
I literally contacted the administrator of every wholesale drop shipping website I could find.

I even chatted with a few of their customers in several online forums, and they confirmed that they were earning extra money using the information that the websites had provided them with. It was like I found a few diamonds in the rough. But don’t take my word for it, you can drop by the over two dozen sites I found. See what you think.
They do charge a minimal fee for access to their program, which is to be expected for any legitimate enterprise that actually has people on staff who are dedicated to helping you get earning online. What a warm group of people! Anyway, if you do decide you are interested in any of the two dozen companies, I advise you to join poste-haste, as the owners have informed me that they are getting so many new members by word of mouth referrals, that they will be blocking off membership completely by month’s end. (By the way, you didn’t get this news from me!) They don’t have a large enough staff to welcome many more people, and they are driven to providing excellent service to each person. Well, my quest to find legitimate Dropship companies has come to an end. I have to mention I was thoroughly disappointed with most of what I found, and I strongly urge you not to take any chances doing business with any companies other than the twenty four I will share with you.
Whatever you do, I hope you will have a healthy, prosperous year for you and everyone you love.
Take care and I wish you all the best.
Wholesale Video Games Distributor – Warning

You need to be prepared for the saturation of wholesale video games distributor phenomena that is going to take place and start appearing on the Internet in the following weeks when the Playstation 3 hits the stores in the first weeks of November of this year.

You need to be prepared for the saturation of wholesale video games distributor phenomena that is going to take place and start appearing on the Internet in the following weeks when the Playstation 3 hits the stores in the first weeks of November of this year. Right now there are many buyers taking advantage of the eBay craze of selling Playstation 3 consoles at almost three times the current retail price that is due in launch day. The price of the Playstation 3 will be $600 for the premium package- can you believe what will happen when those PS3 consoles hit the market the hungriness that it will leave for many small based business online?
What I am trying to warn you about is that there will be hundreds if not thousands possible fake wholesale video games distributors that will try to start selling PS3 on the Internet at supposed wholesale prices and even below wholesale prices for such new consoles. While their will be many wholesale games distributors for the purchase of video games and even PS3 related material, as a power seller myself- I will not recommend touching sites that say that you can get Playstation 3 consoles and games at 50-80% in wholesale prices for numerous reasons.
While you can certainly buy wholesale games at 40-95% below the market retail value- you should not be able to purchase legit wholesale PS3 items below wholesale for at least the first 2 years. If you have study this wholesale market- you can compare what happened with PS3 biggest competitor. If you understand what happened here you should know that such giant corporations are not launching a huge stock of consoles in launching dates for numerous marketing reasons. If you remember what happened a year ago with such PS2 and now PS3 competitor, you will know what I am talking about.
You will certainly know that you cannot buy at 50-95% Playstation 3 in any way with direct online distributors or offline distributors or wholesalers. Why? Ask yourself why a company like Sony will allow the sell of wholesale items on their upcoming best-seller at wholesale prices? It is virtually unreasonable to give a seller permit to distribute and sell PS3 at way below retail prices. How do you think that the fortune 500 retail companies will profit from this boom? How do you think that all the companies and CEO owners that hold major stocks at their distribution line will feel if they do not receive a clear cut commission out of the sell of in-demand new market consoles if their were wholesale video games distributors selling below retail prices?
Again, in the sell of wholesale items both online and offline I can honestly say to you not to look for this wholesale hype prices that are not true for at least the next 2 years. It is of my sole experience and in my opinion to give you- the no, no when it comes to buying PS3 at real wholesale prices for at least the first year. A Power seller who earns thousands selling wholesale in combined business on the Internet and offline can confirm this for you. Use this article as reference and never as wholesale video games distributor legal advice or as a buying guide for online or offline business.

If you want to build an online business with upfront inventory or equipment expense, consider drop shipping a product that someone else creates. Drop shipping is the easiest of the work at home online business opportunities because you need little space and no inventory. All you need to do is go to the Internet to find the various drop ship products and choose the ones best suited for the market you want to reach or your interests. You might drop ship tools, toys, books, videos, CDs, clothes, and many other items.
To get started in your effort to make money online you need your online business Web site and you need to determine what drop ship manufacturer and products you’re going to sell.
What drop shipping essentially means is that you have the online business and they have the products that they sell to you at wholesale and send out in your business name to your customer. You are essentially the broker ?you do the Internet marketing and the advertising necessary to bring consumers to the product. Once they buy you pay the drop shipper the wholesale price for the products and keep the difference. The drop shipper packages the product and sends it to the buyer. The buyer only knows you and your company name. For all intents and purposes you sold your product to that consumer. What a great and relatively painless way to make money online!
There are some things you must watch out for as you set out to build your online business. The first is that the market is not saturated for the products you are thinking about selling. Do your homework here. Find something that has a market and has little competition in that market. Then you’ll need to make sure that drop ship company you are considering is legitimate. You don’t want to send your money to a drop shipper who never delivers the goods, or provides shoddy material. Check with the Better Business Bureau in the drop shipper’s local market and ask for ?and check ?testimonials and references of other Web based business entrepreneurs who are using the drop shipper you are considering.
If you do your homework early on and continue your Internet marketing efforts, drop shipping can be a great way to make money online.
