New here. I am looking for sources - Business Wholesale Distributor Products Forum

11-15-2006, 12:39 AM

Hi all. I am new to this forum. But, I am not new to Ebay and auctioning. I have come up with some ideas for product. However, the margins are slimmer then I would like and the inventory seems to be spotty at times. I am looking for legitimate wholesalers for name brand apparel (mainly shoes). I am also looking for a GOOD drop shipper if any of those exist. I just need help getting contacts. Where do you all go for them? What trade shows are good? What companies out there can you trust? I am trying to get a decent sized business together that my wife and I can work on together. However, she would be staying home while I worked. I need her to stay home because we have 5 children and it works better for us for her to be here.

What I need is someone who isn't looking to screw me over to help me just get my foot in the door with a company that I can buy good inventory from. I do not have a ton of money. But, that is fine. I want to start off slow anyway. I appreciate anyone who can help me with this. Thanks.

....Salehoo or Doba. Just don't go in with your eyes closed. Dropshipping can work, but have a good look through the possible pitfalls first, read as mush as you can basically.

Good Luck!
