How to find
products to sell on E-bay |
 |
|
Now this is where the fun begins.
We are going to start shopping for products to sell for profit!
Finding
Products
By using the
Product Sources
contained in this package, you will be able to find
wholesalers and
drop shippers for your products.
Again, with the drop-shippers, you don't need to buy the product
before you sell it, but it costs a little more than buying in
bulk. Some of the dropshippers charge a small fee for setting up
an account with them, some do not. However, you may find a
better selection at the ones who do. It's a great place to start
your business. As your capital increases, you may find yourself
in search of better prices from a wholesaler.

A note on Tax ID:
Some drop shipping or
wholesale companies will ask you for your Tax ID
Number. Don't be alarmed! As your business will be a
"sole proprietor" (meaning you are the sole owner
and it is not a corporation etc.). In the USA your
Tax ID Number or "TIN" is just your social security
number.
For our Australian sellers, you
will need to apply for an ABN which is an Australian
Business Number. You can do this over the net. The
web address for the ATO (Australian Taxation Office)
is
www.ato.gov.au (liink opens in new window).

You may take a moment to
browse around the
wholesale sources, get a feel for what kinds of products you
would like to sell. If there are any dropshippers or wholesalers
that you would like to use who require you to open an account,
let's take care of that now. If you are planning on making a
purchase from a wholesaler, go ahead and take care of that now
as well. The sooner you place your order, the sooner it will
arrive.
When you are ready to start listing items in
your E-bay Store, it's time to move onto
