Should I supplement my current company with a dropshipper?
I've retooled my current business & am "boot strapping" the entire thing. It's taking some time & I honestly don't see my Grand Opening happening before September. In the past I've sold lingerie on Ebay through a dropship company to add to my income. I'm thinking of setting up a "second" business doing this to fund my main business project. Should I stick with Ebay (the fees have gotten out of hand) & start a E-Store, or should I just start up another website for the lingerie?

- Hello, I agree in full about Fee Bay.. They seem to raise the cost often. This is my 2 cents on your idea. For starters it is always hard to send your clients to places like Ebay to purchase things. Reason being is you are sending your customer into a large free for all shopping mall that you can guarantee that they are going to find your product some place on Ebay for a cheaper price. You should keep your clients "your clients" and start up another website. Try places like the following for your shopping cart. GoDaddy (http://godaddy.com) offers a few solutions however the price is pretty high. They have three levels of cart service the unlimited one is something like $49.00 a month, this does not include hosting. Tahoe Web (http://www.tahoewebservice.com) offers a shopping cart system that will hold 2500 items for the cost of $20.00 a month, this includes hosting Of course Yahoo (http://www.yahoo.com) they offer a cart system for $29.95 a month, however the price always changes at the end of three months.. You can also try places like Etsy.com they are like Ebay however they do not charge as much.. Think it is around 0.20 cents per item. I found that people like them because of the 20 cents, however when you ad up everything that is listed these people might as well pay for a website... Best of luck and hope this info helps you out some
