y online experience started with selling odds and ends on eBay. It seemed like a good way to make some extra money, and so many people were doing it. After a while I started to look at what my actual costs were including time to package, mail, and list items. Was it worth the cost? So I decided there had to be a better way, and I came across a friend who asked if I had tried using a Dropshipper. ( For those unfamiliar with this, it is where a company houses and then ships the goods to your customers. Your customer makes a purchase through you. You then turnaround and place the order with the Dropshipper, and they ship out on your behalf)

WOW! To have no inventory cost, someone else to package and send the goods with your name on it, what could be better?

As I found out there were hundreds of dropshippers, and they all had different policies, so I narrowed the list down. If you would like a copy of who I use, just drop me a note at traffexone@comcast.net

Now that I had these dropshippers with literally thousands of products, how can I list them, and get them sold. EBay was not option, because every item would cost me a listing fee. So I found similar sites, with good traffic, that did not charge a listing fee, but charged on the actual sale.

Here are two of the ones I use:

Live Deal

In the next post, I will explore, how this all lead me to where I am today in my online adventures.Do you have a similar story? Let us know.
