    [AMA] Importing & wholesaling for resale on eBay.

    GOLD! SOURCING 
    Ok I thought they were the same thing just different terms!! In that case, my next Q I imagine is if I do FBA, I still need to see the samples myself before selling or will the fulfilment centre do the checking for me and give me the "OK"? Thanks for your message Walter I'll proceed as I...

    [AMA] Importing & wholesaling for resale on eBay.

    GOLD! SOURCING 
    Hello all. What a great thread this is. Read it gradually 4 pages per day. So many notes!! My eBay rating = 268 (100%) with 4 years of on/off sales, made £2,340 profit.

    charged $37 'import tax' by French gov / DHL (+$68 shipping)

    If you look further down the threads, you'll see already that I had asked in a thread if $68 was a normal shipping charge considering the weight and China to France and the consensus was 'yeh seems ok' so I had no reason to question it at the time. For the record i ordered 5 sets of exercise...

    Hi team So i ordered a set of 5 sample products, samples total cost $49. Shipping was $68. Total $117. To then be asked to pay an extra $37 by french border control/DHL is a complete kick in the teeth I've asked my supplier for a breakdown of the $68 shipping cost they gave. Not holding much...

    Is this quote for shipping I was given too high?

    Hi team. So i'm ordering 5 samples of a product after speaking for a few days with a supplier after sending out various messages. It's coming from China, by airmail to me in France. I will estimate the weight of the item to be around < 2 kg. The cost of the 5 samples is $49, yet the shipping...

    Found product online...must I import?

    Ah sorry I'm English but I'm referring to the bureaucracy in 3rd party warehouse in France, anyway.... So do you have 3rd party warehouses all over the world? I ask this as, for the product i intend to sell, i don't know where the demand will come from as its a pretty universal product used all...

    Found product online...must I import?

    ok thanks. My ebay account Ok. So for example if I list these items on eBay, shipping stated "from China" and someone orders, my supplier in China would recognise the order and then post it out? Obviously they would need to be paid in some way? I'm keen to avoid warehouses as I'm based in...
