I am researching drop-shipping as a way to break into an eBay business to help finance my new company. However, my research was showing that most of the wholesalers were making the money, not the sellers. Most sample items I researched were selling for less than a dollar profit, not even enough to cover the cost of placing the item on eBay.

Thanks to "How to Find a Drop-Shipper" (www.entrepreneur. com/article/0,4621,315870,00.html), I will begin contacting the manufacturers and putting together some new strategies. I wonder how many people contact the manufacturers every day with this same idea?

Anyway, thanks for the time you took to research this for your readers. I will be visiting your site often.
