    How to begin with ebay?

    I am thinking about starting an ebay store but dont know where to begin. I am not sure if this is realistic or not but I would like to dropship on ebay and make about 100 dollars a week or possibly more in the future. I am in college which is the reason I would like to dropship, I dont have the room to store inventory. If anyone has some beginning advice, it would be greatly appreciated. Also, I am looking for a possible mentor or someone who can help me through the beginning steps of getting started, I may be able to pay you alittle as well. Thanks!

    Ebay is a great site and give individuals the chance to start up their own business online. You can register for an account for free and post items on sale for just a small cost. Customers will be able to check out your shop and order online even if you don’t have a merchant account or a website.

    I suggest, you check this out. You can get your free ebook on How To Be An Ebay Seller.

    Hope this could help you!

    ive done dropshipping before, but i have lost a lot of contacts so i dont do it anymore. But heres some of my experiences with dropshipping.

    1.You are the middle man of the situation so its always time consuming because you have to deal with both the buyer and the seller.
    2.Some sellers can be super lazy or unreliable which results in your blame for bad service
    3.I had some custom issues(but thats only because i was dealing with overseas dropshipping)
    4.You need to make sure you know who youre dealing with. Thankfully i had a totally trust worthy partner who would ship the goods and i'd pay him later.

    if you have any more specific questions that i have not answered please ask i just cant come up with too much off the top of my head.

    Right now I have a rating of about 54 I believe. Is there a good way to sell electronic media such as ebooks and such that I wouldnt need a dropshipper or an inventory?

    I'm interested in ebay as well. I do small sales on there, but how do I get into a partnership with a drop shipper?

    Look no further for a wholesaler / dropshipper.

    I have college / uni students around the world picking up some nice coin each week by selling my products on ebay. From the land of Down Under to the UK and into the EU plus SE Asia, there are many who benefit from our quick order turnaround and quality unbranded products.

    The time is now, Christmas is coming and I've got fast selling stocking stuffers and more.

    I can supply images and even websites if you want to go that route. You are a person, not an account number and I value all of my sellers. 10 years ago if you would have told me I was dealing on a daily basis with folks around the world I'd have said you were crazy, but now it's a fact and a real education.

    Check it out - us PM or the Contact Us page if you have questions - I deal 1 on 1 with sellers. I'm in the US, have an American partner in China and staff of about a dozen in Shenzhen, the electronics capital of the world.
