   Does dropshipping work?
   
   I am interested in trying selling using dropshippers. Does this business model work? What's your experience with it and what are the pros/cons? Do you know of any particularly good suppliers in the UK?

   It may do, but I've yet to crack the problem of finding suppliers.

   Dropshipping does work. The secret however is to find a reliable dropshipper.. Also try not to get involved with the "middle men" between you and the dropshipper because you have no one to hold liable if things go wrong.

   I tried dropshipping, the problem was many people was selling items on Ebay cheaper than I could buy it from the dropshipper so how can you really make any money. I sold lots of product but cleared very little profit.

   This is something I'd like to try and my son is interested too as it'd mean he could earn some money of his own but i'm worried about finding reputable suppliers.

   It caused a lot of problems for me when I was an online seller because the dropshipper was frequently out of stock on items when I went to place the customer's order.
