You seem to think these frauds (Dropshippers) are running a real company. That you will really make any kind of money from this drop ship nonsense.
Nothing could be further from the truth. It was a scam from the very beginning. At $80 or $100 from each sucker, times 100 people a week, one or two people can make 8 to 10 grand. That's not bad. Especially when there is no actual product or sales to worry about.
Why do you think the prices are higher than similar items that are already on ebay? That should tell you something, right?
You see, they don't want you to actually sell anything. Once you send in your money, they are done with you. Most people figure out they've been conned before they actually start any auctions.
But, if you want to run the whole course, give it a shot. Get an ebay account. Place your auction for items that you don't already own. BTW, ebay forbids that. Here's why.
Let's suppose the auction runs to its conclusion. The buyer sends you payment in full. You promptly send payment to the frauds. They have a good laugh at your expense. Naturally, nothing is ever sent out.
Why the hell would they send anything? It's you who owe the buyer, not them.
The frauds will send an email telling you that the item was shipped. You pass that along to the buyer.
A week later, the buyer messages back claiming to have received nothing. At this point, the frauds will ignore you.
Here's where you stand then. You don't have an item to send. You don't have the money that the buyer sent you. And, both ebay and paypal are looking at you as a fraud. Even if you explain the whole deal, you'll look like a complete idiot.
Ebay will kick you the hell out. First, they'll deduct the payment from your bank, to refund the buyer.
It ends up as fraud squared. Or even cubed. The frauds are laughing. You are crying. Ebay is pissed. The buyer is pissed. The cops may even come knocking at your door. You have lost several hundred dollars.
What part of this sounds like a good deal?
In the future, do yourself a favor. Before you buy into any of this nonsense, just do your self a favor and stay away from the drop ship programs.
