Templates for Ebay.

How many people have been on ebay only to see a item listed but withput a nice looking template. First impressions are critical in selling online. Why should i buy from you instead of someone else? This is where you need a good template for your ebay store. You don't need to be paying £100's pounds maybe between £5 - £10 pounds should do you. There again there are free oone's all over google like these one's. Just type in free templates for ebay and it gives you about 3,220,000 results. if your just starting out and money is tight why not start with a free one. As you progress with sales etc and you start thinking about openning a shop on ebay then i would suggest spending some money on a original ebay shop template. Keep in mind if you are looking at selling online as well from ebay you need to keep them similiar.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 - Hot Android Tablet

The items you can drop ship without having the pressure or stress of having them in stock has its good points. The bad points are you don't make as much as someone who buys them in bulk. When i say bulk i mean at least 50 of them minimum. Anyway here is another example of what you can sell if you think the iPad2 is out of your reach.

Welcome to the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 From the moment you pick it up it's clear that this is a very different beast from the wealth of Android tablets already on the market. It shares a similar screen size (10.1in) and many of the same specifications as its competitors, but the build quality and design of the Galaxy Tab 10.1 is simply superb — something we can't say about most of its competitors.

The Galaxy Tab 10.1 immediately stands out amongst the pack for all the right reasons. First of all, at just 8.6 millimetres thick, the Galaxy Tab 10.1 is thin enough to be described by Samsung as "the world's thinnest mobile tablet". That is ever so slightly thinner than the 8.8mm thick iPad 2. Although a mere 0.2mm doesn't seem like a deal breaker if you're comparing it directly to the iPad 2, the Galaxy Tab 10.1's weight of just 565g is a big deal. The lightweight design makes it easy to use single-handedly, and very comfortable to hold for long periods. The overall design makes the Galaxy Tab 10.1 look much smaller than it really is — it really does not look or feel like a 10.1in tablet.

Drop Shipping The HTC Chacha Silver Mobile phone

This is one of the best selling products at present. The HTC Chacha Silver mobile phone. Comes with A810e Android Smartphone features a dedicated Facebook button for one-touch access to the key functions of the Facebook internet service that are integrated throughout the HTC Sense experience.

I can get this for £147.15 dropship price. For a wholesale price i can get it for £145.68. Not much difference you might say but as i have mentioned the profits in "branded mobile phones" isn't much. To see what you could sell it for i will leave it to you to check ebay, amazon, google, hotukdeals etc. I would drop ship this item from Hong Kong which do sell branded items if it was China avoid like the plague. "Say after me 10 times, you cannot get branded items from China"  Remember that if nothing else. With this Hong Kong supplier i could also get another 3% of the price if i paid by "Bank Transfer" Sell 10 of these phones and you have saved £43.50. When profits are slim 3% is a saving. Now as i have mentioned in previous posts your buyer has a 7 day cooling of period so make sure you have enough funds in just in case of returns.

Dropshipping Cheap Items From China

lets put ourselves in the eyes of a customer. Would you buy say for example a usb cable that takes anything from one to two weeks depending on you use? Or would you buy from a UK seller instead? These cheap items are great for building your feedback up. So if you find a cheap item selling well, buy between 50-100 so you have them in stock and can post them same day or next day. How many you buy is up to you i used a example. You will need to check on customs for taxs etc as they change all the time. Please be aware you can not get "Branded items from China" I don't care if it says it on their web page its not the real thing and you will get done for selling fakes so please beware and if it its to good to be true it is. The amount of cheap items you can buy from China is out of this world and the amount of dropshippers operating out there grows by the week. If you find a dropshipper from China do some checks, order a item to see what they are like for posting & packaging and delivery times. Read the terms and conditions for how they deal with returns and other points of interest. Don't be another person who ends on a forum saying "I've been scammed" Make sure they accept PayPal to cover yourself.
