I have researched dropshipping and I am just very curious about how this all works out. I understand the whole process of listing a product on Ebay at a higher price than what it sells for on Amazon and then ordering the product from Amazon, directly shipping it to your customer right after they have purchased from you off of Ebay.

I understand the flaws such as how Amazon can run out of stock... etc

and I know it is against Amazon's terms to use their Prime services for dropshipping but not so if you use their super saver shipping when you purchase over $35.

My question is won't customers complain when they receive a box from Amazon after they've ordered off of Ebay?

I only want serious responses. I am just a college student trying to make some extra bucks to pay my way through.

Responses from Amazon to Ebay dropshippers who've done this a couple of times would be AWESOME!

Thanks in advance

Dropshipping in general is a bad idea. I realize you are only trying to make a buck but this will get your account terminated sooner rather than later.

You live in a college town? Take advantage of that. When college lets out people toss nearly anything you can imagine. They don't want to take it home. Also check dumpsters on the nights before trash pickup, (if allowed by law where you live). I have two part time employees that do nothing but this for me. You may be surprised at how much money you can make.

If I buy from you and the package arrives from Amazon, I'm going to realize what you did and leave you negative feedback. I'll also be concerned that a) whether or not you used a stolen credit card to pay for the item and b) why you didn't follow eBay rules about mentioning the item was not in your possession in the auction listing.

unless you get it sent to your house and then re ship to ebay customer. only if amazon shipping is free and you charge ebay cust shipping!

Idk
