US account and ship from China/Hongkong
 

Anybody know how to create a US account but item ship from China/Hongkong? Is that possible?

Thank you

Do you mean have the product ship from China directly to the customer? If so you are going to get many complaints form customers abut shipping time. Also, you will have to give AZ the tracking number to release your funds so your supplier must provide that right away.

Yes, direct to customer from China/Hongkong

I mean the right way to setup an account like that and compliance with Amazon rules.

You just go into account settings and change the shipping from destination. Can be done won any amaozon account as far as I know

Just make sure the buyer is clear on the shipping origination - buyers dont like to be mislead if US is the expected sending location

The whole setup just seems like its destined to fail.

I agree. Pull up the sellers that are in China and look at their feedback. You will find that the majority of their negative feedback is about how long the shipping took even though the sellers condition notes say that it will take a long time.

Why not just buy them in bulk and have them shipped to you and then ship all of them to Amazon for fulfillment?

I don't want FBA

I love FBA, at first I never thought of doing it because I thought it would be expensive. If you go in and do the revenue calculator you can see if your items are worth doing FBA. You might have to pay an extra dollar or more for fulfillment, but you have to remember that you will get a lot more orders so you will actually make more money. I would not rule it out.

The only work you do is print a packing slip and shipping label and ship them to Amazon. They fulfill all your orders. You be be on a cruise and still be making money. It's great! Here is the link.
