dropshipping business

I have been on this forum for a while now. From different threads about dropshipping, it looks like it is really difficult to find good and reliable dropshipper.
I am also using dropshipping right now and well versed with all the problems you will face even if you find a good reliable dropshipper. I have been looking for alternative for a long time and so far no luck.
Long in short , I am thinking of setting up my own dropshipping along with my retail online store. But I will be dropshipping only the products that I have on my website which is approx 36000.
I was wondering how many people will be interested in signing-up.
Let me know.

The best alternative to drop shipping is: saving your profit from drop shipping to buy bulk wholesale. Your prices will be much lower than your drop shipping prices when you buy bulk wholesale. Plus you will make much more money and be able to beat the competitions prices. Most of your competition will be drop shipping. That means, they pay a higher price per unit than someone who buys bulk wholesale.

If you dont have the room to buy bulk wholesale you are wrong. You can bulk order small items. Like popular accessories for units like Ipods, cell phones and video game consoles.

Good idea for the drop ship company. Lots of people ar doing that. Just remember don't claim to be a wholesaler if you are not. Just advertise yourself as a drop shipper that sells to the public. Lots of people want only that nowadays to get started anyway. Just lookout for drop ship con artists(people that steal credit cards and have the item drop shipped to them).

If you have any questions PM me.
