Why I Use Salehoo

February 9th, 2010

Dropshipping is a way of selling goods even if you have none. There are new retail websites popping up all over the place, have you ever thought about where all of them are getting their inventory? Many of them are using dropshipping wholesalers that they have found through websites like Salehoo. If you haven’t heard about Salehoo, let me tell you how they can help you make some profits.

There are tons of directories around the internet that promise you that they have lists of the best dropshippers around the world. The only problem is that many of the dropshippers are not legitimate. Many of them aren’t even wholesalers, they’re just reselling merchandise themselves. On top of that, there are loads of scammers ready to steal your money.

But, Salehoo has ended up as one of the top dropshipping directories on the net. There are a few reasons for this. Most people, myself included, contribute most of their success to their great support system. They have a vast amount of help available for anyone who is just getting into dropshipping or anyone who is not too experienced.

It seems that most of the companies involved with Salehoo are actually legitimate wholesalers. You should feel pretty comfortable using Salehoo to find good dropshipping wholesalers. At least more comfortable than you would with most other dropshipper directories.

The big drawback with Salehoo is that you will have to pay a small membership fee to get access to all of these great dropshippers. If you are interested in getting into the dropshipping business, then you should really check out Salehoo. You will be bettering your chances of involving yourself with some high quality wholesalers. Or you could just take your chances and do a Google search to find them – your choice.

Wholesale Pallets – Don’t End up With Junk

January 22nd, 2010

Trying to find wholesale pallets that you can make money on can be like throwing your money away sometimes.  More often than not, you’ll find a wholesale source online, what they list as being in the pallet sounds great but when you pay and take receipt of the pallet it’s just one big con and disappointment.

The fact is that many of the wholesale pallet suppliers out there, give you a general outline of what’s on the pallet.  They don’t actually go into precise detail about the condition of the stock, the age of the stock and they definitely don’t tell you what the true value of the stock is. 

They will give you a general figure that the pallet might be worth $2,000 retail, but they’re selling it for $300.  However please remember, with many suppliers they are valuing the stock at its highest value when it was new and in great condition.  The stock that you then receive might have ONCE been worth $2,000 but now, a couple of years down the line, fashions have changed, gadgets have been updated and consumer needs have moved on, so perhaps the wholesale pallet you’re looking at won’t actually be worth anything near $2,000 retail.

Your best bet with finding quality wholesale pallets is to take your time and find a reputable and reliable wholesaler of pallets.  That means you need to buy from a company where you can go and view the stock as closely as you possibly can – obvious many of the pallets are already wrapped so you might not get to view each item in detail.

Make sure that the wholesale supplier you opt for offers refunds and secure payments.  This is especially true if you cannot get out and view a pallet before you buy it.  Too many companies don’t give refunds and offer secure payments and to my mind, these companies should be avoided at all cost.

Truth is, many wholesale pallets are nothing but junk that you cannot resell, but if you find yourself a top class wholesale source then you can make some real money and grow your business exponentially.
