There are thousands of drop ship sellers out there selling stuff on RillaBay.com and eBay.com.
Does anyone here sell drop ship items, and what sells the best?
Has anyone concidered selling drop ship items, have you checked into it?

Ive earned a bit money through dropshipping, but just keep in mind you cant use PayPal for this purpose because it is against thier Terms of Service and your account will be frozen.

Just read thier terms very carefully, it is simply to prevent the recievers are getting fraud or scam items. Such as fake Ipods or similar, you are also not allowed to sell counterfeit products on eBay.

I am a new ebay seller, I know how drop shipping works but I have no courage to put it into my business plan. It's already much work to sell things tht you have with you, I can;t handle the hassle selling things that are not with me which I have no idea about the quality, the supply, like what if they are out of it. If they take too long to ship, then it's my reputation that will get hurt. I believe some people are succeed working with them, but, I think it's not for me.

I agree with you on the quality control part that is really hard to guarantee. However, this is a business niche that will require minimal risk. If it doesn't really succeed you will not get hurt. I suggest if you would like to sell these items, you also order some for yourself. This way you will have an idea of their workmanship.

Yes,
I spent stupidly long periods of time researching it, and I found several suppliers of good products, but I can't tell you them because the competition would be too great, and it took me a very long time to find them
I would recommend http://www.thedropshipforum.co.uk for your research as there are loads of people there always willing to help
