Corona asked: I know ebay has thier own fees, but what should I charge to list, and sell and ship someone else’s items? I was thinking around 20%. Is that too high or low?

erica z asked: We own an online business selling sporting goods and electronics. We find our suppliers online and they drop ship for us. It’s more difficult to find good electronics suppliers, cuz some dont have competitive prices and some dont update in time. How can find good Electronics & Computer suppliers?
Thanks,
Sue

BusinessMan asked: I am starting my own ebay business… I want to sell a wide varity of gifts for all ages..rangeing from… birthday gifts, wedding gifts, chirstmas gifts, graduation gifts, and so on. I plan on using drop-shipping wholesalers. I am going to get a Business License, Fed Tax Id, and a sellers permit. I have no inventory as we speak and will be 100% relying on wholesale for my inventory..I would like to know wholesalers that will work with a small business just getting started. If you have your own online business and can give me any kind of advice, tips, or any help at all, I will be very much thankful..

Eric W asked: Im starting a online business in Florida. I will be selling products over the internet and it’s a home based business. Most items will be drop shipped, with some going out via UPS. Does this sort of business require a State of Florida occupational license? I know i need a city and county, but do I need a state?

ohwowmart asked: I live in the U.S. and I have a ecommerce website. Currently I am doing drop-shipping for a Chinese company. (my supplier ships the item directly to my customer). I am charging my customers through Google Checkout? Once the funds are in my bank I will pay my supplier via Western Union. I send about 30,000 to China monthly at least. What are the taxes am I responsible for?

LovePink asked: OK so I been selling on eBay for a good two months. Sold a lot of stuff I haven’t used or been using. Now I am running out of stuff to sell!! I really want to take this business seriously.
Where should I get more stuff to sell? I heard of wholesale and drop shipping. How does that work? Is it worth it? Are there companies you can trust? Where do I get started?
Any advice would be great because I want to sell more on eBay.

Cherin asked: I own a business and have to drop ship an item to a customer and am not sure how to do it since it’s not how we normally ship things. I use USPS Priority Mail online, so would I just put the client’s mailing address as the return address instead of mine? Would there be an issue if I use carrier pick up and the return address is not mine? Thanks so much for your help.
