The reason only few people can offer certain products is because not just anyone can go and get wholesale Apple products. There is a need to buy them in hundreds and thousands at a time on a regular basis. This means that there are only a handful of apple distributors that smaller sellers can use.

I do not advise you buy these lists because if you put the time in you can find the information for free. There are many cheap ones you might consider that cost around a £1. This is small price to pay to get a quick list of suppliers however as I said above a little time will get you the information for free.

Why Invest Lots of Capital?

For a start you are going to be looking to sell a certain type of product. Lets take the common computers games example where you take a small profit on each one because of how easy they are to sell especially if they have just been released. The likelihood is that you will not find a supplier unless its wholesale, that can provide you with a good profit margin. This is the same for the Xbox 360, PS3, Wii, iPhone and all the other products.

Why invest £300 in a PS3 and sell it at only £10 profit to compete with other retailers. You stand more chance of buying a cheaper product and making a larger margin on that. Yes so many eBay sellers may be selling PS3’s etc but at a large investment. Why tie up your capital in a more expensive product when you can make the same amount of money selling a cheaper one.

How to find genuine wholesale and drop shipping sites?

Here is a tip that allows you to find genuine sites using search engines. Do not just search for camping drop shipping. Change your criteria to “camping drop shipping log in”. This will find you the sites log in which can really help find genuine sellers.

Should I Pay to Join a Wholesale / Drop shipping Website?

Sites will often ask for a fee to join so that the general public do not just use the site to shop at a cheaper price. In some cases this is fine, in others it is not. You have to make your own mind up if it is worth paying the fee to join. Look at the cost of the products, ask for a sample of the profit margin that is expected. Check what the minimum order level may be with wholesalers. Finally, ensure you know if the fee is a one off or if it has to be paid again at a later date.

If you think its a small price to pay for what you are getting, then go for it There is always risk in business, just ensure that it is worth it.

I have ranted a bit here, there were a few points I wanted to make sure I have covered and there is no doubt that I will have forgotten some so stay tuned for updates.
