Hi I have been toying with the idea of opening an eBay store but I am not sure how to go about it and what kind of products to put on it that will do well.

In every one's opinion what is best to operate an eBay store or a website ?
Basically I would like to know which one is easier to operate, will get the most exposure and has the best chance of success overall ?.

I have a computer website already up and going but it is not getting any traffic, so I may end up selling it. Which is the better one between worldwide Brands & Doba and are there any other drop shipping programs or reliable drop shippers. As my funds are limited I would prefer to find and use a drop shipper without having to use some sort of program to get a drop shipper, but if it means the difference of success, I will have to wait until I have the money.

I have heard when using drop shipping that you have spend a lot of time in front of the computer, is that true ?.

Are there any drop shippers that can be automated on a website so that when a customer makes a purchase it can be automatically forwarded to the drop shipper without the website owner having to do anything ?. I ask this question because I would like to know if a person goes away on holiday for a few weeks what would happen to the business ?.



Thank you Craig

Hi,

Just thought I'd mention my droppshipping experience on Ebay. Not good. I sold some MP3 players exactly how supplier told me to (with their product info ect) and it turned out they were fakes, I got landed with all these machines I had to return to the supplier, and I was never refunded for them.

My paypal account was frozen and also my ebay account. And on ebay if you get a complaint your account gets suspended and it looks like you have dissapeared with the customers money, which I hadn't they were refunded, it just left me over $600 US in debt. Not a good experience.

So I recommend that if you are going to dropship, buy a sample of the product and do thorough research.

Good luck, hope I haven't scared you off.
Cheers
Shel
