Legitimate Wholesale - List How to be an eBay Wholesaler

If you really want to work from home and sell products on eBay its going to take hard work. Dont think youre going to be able to work a couple hours a week and make a living, if you are doing this because you dont like to work you can forget about it, it wont happen. If you are willing to work hard however, you can forget about making a living on eBay, instead you can worry about making an absolute killing on eBay!

There are many different options to consider when starting out. First you need to decide what you want to sell. I know we all want to have a complete online store of things to sell but for now you need to pick a couple of products, or one specialized area. For example if you are into fitness, like myself, you might want to start researching stability balls, or dumbbells, or even weight benches. If you stick to an area you know and understand youll be able to find better values and write better reviews. The more passionate you are about an area the better youll do because people will see you as an expert in the field and trust you more.

Next you need to decide where you are going to get your products. You need to make sure you are getting your products from the manufacture or as close as possible. Every hand the product goes through cuts your final profit margin. So make sure the wholesale youre looking into is a real wholesaler and not a distributor or you wont get the wholesale price you want.

There are a couple of different options for legitimate eBay wholesalers. You can drop ship, which means you dont have to carry an inventory. You list a product and sell it the drop ship source then takes a small percentage and ships it to your customer.

Although this seems like the easy option, there are a couple of disadvantages to drop shipping. First you dont get to keep as much profit as you may want or need. Second its hard for you to guarantee your service, if a product is on back order and the drop shippers doesnt inform you, you could end up with a bunch of angry customers. You generally have to handle of customer service issues even though you have no control over the drop shipper.

Customer complaints could easily be the end of someone trying to get started. Drop shipping is the best option for someone that cannot afford an inventory, but be aware of the problems that could occur.

Another option is carrying a small inventory so you can guarantee service. The best option if you can afford it and your wholesalers will allow it. The problem is many companies want you to order way more than you can afford or want to carry to get the best discount.

The final option would be to buy in mass quantities receive the best discount and keep the most profit. The downsides are having enough money to pay by the truckload, storing the product, and ensuring that you sale and dont get stuck with anything.

Now that you know everything there is to know about wholesalers you need to decide which one is right for you. You will need to decide on a legitimate wholesale list. Since you already have an idea of what you want to sell dont sign up with any eBay wholesaler. If youve been researching this for a while you understand how hard it is to find a legitimate wholesale list. There are a lot of scams out there so you need to be careful. Many eBay wholesalers are going to make you pay a small fee for their wholesale list but it shouldnt be an excess amount. My wholesale list cost about $70 for a lifetime membership.
