    Anyone earning fortune by dropshipping? If yes, please do share how much you make through drop shipping? Any experience with dropshippers in AU/UK ?

    No luck with dropshipping, last time I did that I felt it was too much work. Maybe I'm just lazy.

    Hi l2azor, I've searched for dropshippers as well for a long time but it seems to be really complicated to work with them, especially for the refund issue. I suggest you to choose a nice and to contact local companies producing what u want to sell. Tell them what you're planning to do and see what happen! :)
    Good luck!

    My first dollar I made online was with dropshipping. After setting it up, I made around few hundred a month. It only took like 30mins a month to maintain and place orders so it wasn't bad.

    From what I have heard, its not that easy to dropship in the UK compared to the US. Mainly because manufacturers ain't that open to it.

    If you are serious about eCommerce I would highly suggest checking out http://www.ecommercefuel.com/ its a great resource for starting a dropshipping business. Check iTunes, this guys has podcasts there, some very userful information.

    For ten years, we have been drop shipping some of our highly specialized IT products. Developing a good relationship with the manufacturers or distributors is key to success. We also insist that they "blind drop ship" so that the products look like they are coming from my business. I suspect that results will vary based upon the industry and what resellers/manufacturers are used to doing. If you do enough volume with these folks, they can be very accommodating.
