Product Sourcing – How To Find Wholesale Products To Sell Online

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

Learn from the product sourcing experts. Avoid getting scammed and discover how to do proper product sourcing to find wholesale products to sell online.

Warning: You won’t find the real wholesalers in the search engine !

“Don’t Get Scammed By Another Fake Drop Shipper or Wholesaler!”

I’ve worked for several several large companies as a Procurement Engineer and have been in eBay business for over five years and literally spent over $1000 buying list of companies alone.

After five years of investigation and reviewing 29 different online wholesalers and drop shippers list, I found that majority of them are scams.

http://DropshipWholesalers.rev-u.com

Here are the warning signs that you should watch out for…

* If you can easily find a wholesaler or drop shipper in the search engine, it’s either scammer or middleman. The truth is that over 99% of the companies you see online are either middlemen or scams. Scammers make money from people like us, and many of them are marketing and search engine experts, so they get a lot of exposure online.

In fact real manufacturers and wholesaler suppliers don’t have fancy websites and they rarely advertise. Why? Because their main expertise is product research and creation. And that’s the way it should be.

* Scammers have either no or weak money-back guarantee – If they don’t provide you guarantee, it can mean two things. They aren’t confident on the list of companies they provide. They are ready to run away with your money.

* Scammers sell outdated list – The list of companies does change every day. The last thing you want is an access to outdated companies, which most websites provide.

I was personally scammed by many of these drop shippers. They were middlemen. When I make a sale, they don’t ship the product. Instead, they have the real drop shippers ship the product and keep profits themselves. Since then, I’ve became determined to help people like you not to make the same mistakes that I did.

http://DropshipWholesalers.rev-u.com

To find a real drop shippers, don’t use search engines. Instead, find a broker who has list of real drop shippers.

But many of brokers and companies are scammers themselves. They claim they have list of real drop shippers but what they have is list of either outdated companies or fake drop shippers that anyone could easily gather using search engines.

I personally reviewed 29 of brokers that sells drop shipper lists.

Here are the main factors that I considered when evaluting company list sites

* Quality of the list (must have real, legitimate companies only)
* Constant update of the company list or database
* Great customer service
* Happy customers
* Strong money-back guarantee

Would Universities consider eBay a form of paid work?

Monday, March 1st, 2010

I’m going to attend community college for two years, aim for a 3.8 GPA and transfer to a 4 year school, hopefully Stanford or UCLA.

I’ve been doing ebay since I’ve was 15, starting with selling things my mother or father would allow me to list, then going on to buying items from ebay, fixing them up and reselling for a profit. Now I buy wholesale and produce a 9.4% average profit.

I’ve made $15,000 in two years, saving most of it. Would they take that as 4 years of paid work (2 years from now) or would I need to get a set-hour job to show them I can hold down a paying job for two years.

They may take it as experience of buying/selling and internet based business I’m not sure about whether it would be considered as paid work.

Why do you need to show them you can hold down a job though? Most of whether they take you will probably depend on the grades you get at the community college.

Price of goods USA made versus China made?

Thursday, February 25th, 2010

How much does a store have to pay for an item from china versus an item made in the USA.. I am getting wary of products from China as are many others I speak with. If a toothbrush sells for $3.00 retail here how much did it cost from a supplier from China versus a USA supplier? What about the baby formula that has made the babies ill? How does the price to the wholesale supplier compare for comparable products? Does the US not have the factories to produce our own items or is the cost difference really that great?

Many industries operate on margins of a few percent. Big retailers, such as Wal-Mart, typically have operating margins well under 10%:
http://walmartspace.blogspot.com/2005/09/wal-mart-operating-margins.html

(Operating margins do not include expenses such as interest on loans, cost of maintaining the corporate administration group, etc. They are significantly higher than profit margins)

Only a portion of these costs are actually the cost of the product to the retailer, but even a 10% difference in those costs makes a big difference in the retailers margin and profit.

Wal-Mart is famous for squeezing its vendors’ margins:
http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2007/05/25/dell-looks-to-wal-mart-to-crush-margins-and-destroy-brand/

Wal-Mart is the classic example, but the above is true in general. For example, here is some data on Target:
http://seekingalpha.com/article/93383-wal-mart-vs-target-a-better-starting-point

So the net answer is that if the retailers see that their customers don’t see a difference, even a slight difference in the cost from the factory is a very big deal for them.

This is less true for the factories that make the cosmetics, toothpaste, etc. from Chinese ingredients, but only a little for those who want to sell at the bottom end stores such as Wal-Marts.

As for actual factory costs, that is very hard to establish. People went to foreign suppliers not because American factories couldn’t produce as cheaply, but because they didn’t.

Many American factories were old and less efficient (i.e. more expensive) than a brand new factory would be, but the company is going to build a brand new factory to replace an old one, why build it in the U.S. when it could be build cheaper in China?

(Right after WWII, both Germany and Japan had to rebuild all the factories that the Allied bombs had destroyed. That is one reason that by around 1955, they German and Japanese factories were much more efficient than the American factories which had never been destroyed and hence were much older.)

So there is every reason to believe that new factories in the U.S. could produce goods for only slightly more than the cost in China (using more automation and less manual labor than the Chinese factories), but if all the customers are going to go for the cheaper brand, even that "slightly" becomes significant, so there haven’t been many building those factories in the U.S.

On the other hand, with all the media attention to the quality of food and drug products from China, perhaps the American buying public will be willing to spend a bit more for lower risk. But even then, while I can see it for toothpaste and baby formula, I don’t see it for toothbrushes and other goods.
