If you’ve thought about selling physical products on your website, having a reliable drop shipper for wholesale products is pure gold.
For years, I’ve used the services of a company called Doba, which is a Fortune 500 company that gives you access to a huge spectrum of wholesalers and distributors. The site features a searchable database of over a million products. You can run feeds or simply copy and paste code into your website.
Within the site, you’ll learn the wholesale price and the manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP). You can set your own price. So let’s say there’s a television that you’d like to sell with a wholesale price of $200 and a MSRP of $700. You can choose to sell it for $450 and make a $250 profit. Or, you can add in the shipping fees (which you can calculate within Doba) and sell the television for $500 and tell your customers that they are receiving free shipping. You collect the money from your customer, use that money to buy the wholesale product at Doba, and then ship it out.
When I’ve sent orders via Doba, they use my specified business address on the return label so it looks like it came directly from me.
Doba Offers a Free Trial
I’ve signed up for — and paid good money for — different wholesale vendors and have to admit that some of them were useless for me. They were lists of different wholesale vendors that had to be contacted individually. While this might be a good arrangment, I wanted something fast and easy that I could use, and something that was backed up by a guarantee. What I like about Doba, even though it might cost a bit more than some of the others, is that you don’t have to go through a convoluted process of getting approvals of individual wholesalers. Everything’s done for you. And your drop shipment will go out as specified. Not a single complaint was filed about the quailty of the products or shipping that I’ve done through Doba.
It’s also nice to know what you’re getting into, and Doba offers a free trial so you can see exactly how it works. There’s no hidden agenda or substandard wholesaler access product.
Whether it is for resale on eBay or sale on your own website, Doba is worth a look. There’s a breathtaking selection of products that should fit any niche.

This definitely would be a problem for the International traders. Is there a similar service outside the U.S.?
Doba is definitely the best drop shipper to work with. Their prices are competitive and their customer service is great!
I agree, Data Storage. They make the process very easy. It’s almost like selling affiliate products, except it’s more profitable and you have control.
The people who are international shippers bring up a good point, though.
