MC011-drop shipping store- now ebay wants to see all Invoices-

[buyguy111]

Ok I just got this second message from eBay. The first asked me to upload some pending Tracking Number, I did, and now this..


some background:
I have 3900 positive feedback

I had a dropshipping store for about 2 years that I ran and stopped in January 2019 I did 5-10k per day. I just recently started it up again in April 2020 after a bit over a year hiatus, I have quickly ramped up to 1-2k per day in the past month before the MC011.

I am still dropshipping using Amazon, and suppose that's not an option to show them my amazon receipts. So does anyone have any advice for me here? It would be much appreciated.

You either provide them with the invoices they want to see or the account is toast.

Time to start thinking creatively.

details on item,$ per item,quantity purchased and total price,just like any legit retailer will get from his supplier .
Your receipt from AMZN after someone purchased from you on Ebay is not a vendor .
invoice.
There are too many retail arbitragers on Ebay,Ebay is spending alot of time and energy ridding them.

yeah your right... seems like i need to get creative as tinsoldier said...
might also be time to look into a ghost account. anyone that can coach me ill be appreciative and can certainly give value back as I've seen a lot in the way of eCommerce, gc, and seo

Arbitrage on eBay from Amazon is dead, increasingly Amazon are using their own carrier and tracking numbers so eBay will know if you enter this information.

Having an account doing 1 to 2K a day with no tracking numbers is also a red flag.

These sellers are easily caught, I sell liquidated stock, so if an item is $49 on Amazon, arbitrage sellers will sell for say $69 and I will list for $39.

Personally I am glad they are now getting caught as it is driving buyers away from eBay and leaving them with a nasty taste in their mouths.

Walmart does allow drop shipping if you open a drop shipper account, you can not do it with a regular fulfilled by merchant account.

What exactly is a walmart dropshipping account? If this for selling or sourcing? Does a walmart dropshipping account allow you to sell on walmart or use walmart as your supplier?

[degsey69]

The drop shipping account allows you to sell on their website but only as a drop shipper, I was given in both options when I signed up for Walmart but did not look into it as I did not need that type of account.

I think selling on Walmart is pretty awesome for my product only 8% total charges to include credit card processing. After they vetted you they leave you alone, unless your metrics get bad. You communicate directly with the customer no CSR.

nice, going to go ahead and apply and start dropshipping on there. What type of information do they require to sell on there? How often do they payout? How do sales on there compare to eBay?

I had the same issue for my MC011 on eBay so I get an invoice from fiverr and I get back my account

[buyguy111]

Thanks for the thoughts degsey...
there are options to hide the tracking number. ztacker is one.

Walmart.. now that's a good idea.. I bet you could build up a nice set of products to sell on there.. that's worth looking into. anyone been doing it?
is there a forum for that?

I would love to utilize the current discounts I get with amazon, wm, ebay etc to drop ship on there.
I like it.

have you tried?

[degsey69]

I got onto Walmart a month ago with all legit information. I had to sign IRS tax documents send my EIN papers, send state sellers tax docs, declare my other selling accounts (especially Amazon).

They say that it can take a couple of weeks to be set up but I was excepted within 24 hours.

Below is the terms of a drop ship vendor for Walmart

Ship to Customer as a DSV (The Walmart Drop Ship Vendor program)
Sellers keep products in their warehouses and list them on walmart.com. When an order is placed, the seller ships it to the buyer with a Walmart packing slip. Walmart can also request that a seller ship a particular order to a Walmart retail location when a buyer chooses the “pick up in store” option. A big difference here between DSV and regular 3P marketplace sellers is that Walmart covers the cost of the UPS package for DSV, so there is no shipping expense for Drop Ship Vendors.
