is there any money in drop boxing? how hard/easy it?
unless your referring to the website dropbox.com (filesharing site) I think you mean dropshipping? and if thats what you mean you can get alot of info on that on blackhatworld.com warriorforum.com just google "dropshipping, blackhat" or "dropshipping, warriorforum" (w/o the quotes)
But basically the hardest part about dropshipping is finding a reliable dropshipper, so if I were you I'd do an extensive amount of research on whatever company you are interested in. Then from their you sell those products on your own ecommerce site or eBay (easier said than done because building an ecommerce site with decent traffic will take some work and using eBay from what I'm reading can cause many headaches from getting a reliable sellers account to accounting for eBay and paypals fees and regulations, eBay isn't too seller friendly either one bad review and no matter how many good reviews you have can get your account banned, their 100% buyer guarantee is something alot of scammers and just a$$holes in general really exploit). I'm looking to get into the e-commerce game my self (not dropshipping tho) mainly arbitrage and eBay. If anybody has any good info on this hit me up. I seen this post on warriorforum and basically want to do something similar in a different niche.
"I will give out a business model I did last year, I made about $1500/month doing this part time but it did involve a lot of hustle. Anyone can do this, I just got tired after a few months and mainly used this to pay my bills. Maybe I can go around doing this, hell maybe this can be a WSO but like what some people say when they give out great info for free, "It doesn't matter if I tell you how to do it, most people won't want to put in the effort or time".
Here's a synopsis version of what I did:
Industry: Electronics
Product: Smartphones
Business Model: Arbitrage
Concept: Simply learn the estimated selling price (ebay) for any smartphone either via buy-it now or auction, keep an excel spreadsheet of various phone models, size, brand, good/bad esn, broken, etc. Search for said items under "newly listed" and if there is a broken iphone 4 for $150 and they normally sell for $225 broken, buy it ASAP. Then you can either resell the iphone for $75 profit (about $55 after ebay fees) or fix the iphone yourself and sell it for a better amount (say $300 in this example) and make more money.
You can go cross platform and use CL ads and just pay attention to the price and specific phones you are going after. Some people just sell broken phones for $30 when they go for $100 broken. It doesn't have to be broken, you just need to know how much that particular phone is selling for.
I mainly stopped this because I pretty much focused my time in learning SEO and getting some internet skills, plus my time window of doing this was normally weekends/6-9pm weekdays (when normally 9am-5pm weekdays was the best time), and occasionally some people on CL would be pretty scummy and have deals fall through.
I hope this helped in some way."
