Dropshipping?

[shadowmyst87]

Now I know alot of people are against and say you can't make a profit.

What if the drop shippers were located domestically? I've managed to find two drop shippers in the US, one is actually about 70 miles from me.

I found these two companies through dailytrader.com

Now the interesting part, they both require a monthly membership. One wants $295 for a lifetime membership and the other wants $14.99 a month. Both are apart of the BBB, one has an A- and the other has an A+.

Do they sound legit or should I avoid? I've tried calling both numbers and they actually do sound legit.


Thanks.

If they are that close to you, why not go to check them out?
if they are legit, they wont mind it at all.

Also, do test runs by purchasing something and see how fast they deliver and if their items pass the quality test.

If you are new to the whole dropshipping thing, pay for the 15 bucks a month instead of investing 300 until you know what youre doing and get the hang of things.

Check them out.

Do the cheaper plan, until you see how they do,

Then if you are happy. Do the more expensive plan

Good Luck! Mate

Are you getting good profit from them?

I wanted to offer drop shipping to people you sell products for $40 and I charge you $18 including shipping but then I said screw it! But I might think about it! OR just have them buy 50 to 100 items at a time from me and ship to them so they can ship it from their own homes and it be cheaper then buying it at $18 per item. More like $14 to $15.

What kind of items are you talking about Ghost?

Drop shipping is the death of 99.9% of accounts. Why place your income in the hands of someone else?

It's products I sell. I got my buddy in the states who does all my shipping and packaging.

That should work a little better, as long as you both had a very secure and tight knit relationship.

We been Friends since 2000 and my other friend use to do all my shipping before but his working JESUS hours (meaning 12 hours a day, 6 days a week + they call him to come on his day off). All that for $8 an hour

So my other friend does it and his only working 4 hours per day and going to school online so he has time, every time he goes to work, he drops off my packages in the box by his work. I told him once I start getting more orders. I will either double his pay ($1 per product he has to package) plus $5 for each drop. I say gas money but his got no car and lives in a small town up north so no need for a car there! So it's good!

I will test things out with a few stealths too see how it goes. My goal was to get 45 people but now I want to get stealths to do it. So more profits for me.
