eBay business model 2024

[stammer]

Guys, it looks like dropshipping scene on ebay is saturated and full of chinese retailers and old school digital we used to do in old days is gone

What could we do right now

[murdered_by_ebay]

selling quality products with fast local delivery , customers pay more there and buy easier than same product from china

Look for something people need but do not want to wait too long-ink cartridge,stationary and Home Depot type items.

[degsey69]

Any product that you use all the time, such as razor blades, ink cartridges etc.

Offer better services, quick answers to your buyers' questions, offer faster shipping, maybe you'll earn less but you'll sell more... try to find products that people need quickly and that they can't wait for to arrive from China...

No one pays attention when I said baby diapers are good to sell on Ebay

Never liked the idea of dropshipping.
You're not in control of the shipping time, product quality etc.

self-defeatist - always ways to power through...for sure, it's not easier than before

I really do feel like your average person that tries to sell on eBay with a good reputation and 100% feedback always get banned and the Chinese sellers with terrible feedback, bad customer service and shady business practices literally thrive on eBay.

In the end, maybe buyers don't care about the bad customer service that some Chinese sellers have, customers simply care about buying cheap and getting it fast.

Compared to amazon, eBay is a lot easier to use.

the people that get banned are usually unaware of what NOT to do, whereas the Chinese sellers tend to have more experience and they take advantage of the loopholes

[agent006140]

I would think it is a lot easier for a Chinese seller to open new account,there are so many friends,relatives,neighbors,they dont need stealth account,they just use their ID to open a new account.

did you already try a buyer request feedback revision option?

[agent006140]

There was a time seller will bribe the buyer to remove negative feedback by offering money

time still exists - the trouble/effort depends on the need by the seller
