After a short time of selling products on eBay, I decided to pursue it full-time. I talked to some other sellers to get some ideas how I could increase my profits from a side income to a full-time income. I had several people suggest that I sell a dropship product.

It sounded simple enough. After browsing a dropshipper’s products, I could choose the retail mark-up and list the product on my auction site. As soon as a consumer bought the product, I ordered it from the dropshipper and they took care of the shipping. It would save me time by not having to deal with shipping or returns.

Being a cautious person, I decided to further investigate how beneficial dropshipping would be for my business, if it was the most cost-efficient way of ordering products. I picked up the book Ebay Inventory the Smart Way, which was a simple guide to sourcing products and making money online. I decided to try using a dropshipper, and now I make a full-time income that was better than my previous job by selling on eBay. Dropshipping has made my life easier and I love the flexible schedule being an eBay seller gives me.
