      Hi Walter, I have been reading your posts, and they got me interested into importing and selling on Ebay. I want to buy your books but I am not sure how to PM you. Thanks

        I will PM you and that makes it possible for you to PM me in reply.

        I am discounting my books and you can see that in my Marketplace offer. Links don't appear in profile replies, so I will PM the link.

        Thanks for letting me know. My threads reflect my outlook on life. It might seem easy to say that I worked for the sense of achievement and not to get rich, but I confess that I got a lot of satisfaction as the checks rolled in.

      Hi Walter. First, thank you for all the information you so kindly share. I've learned a lot just reading your posts the last few days.

      I'm interested in learning about importing goods as a business.
      I heard you comment that the PAC includes your book.
      Do you any thoughts on that course? Want to hear your opinion as I'm interested in that too.

      Thank you.

        Hi Gobrian,

        Yes if you buy through my link to PAC it includes my book and I receive some compensation for allowing them to include my book.

        I would not have anything to do with almost every course available about Amazon, but PAC is the exception with its huge success rate and no bad reviews. I will PM you with the link.

        Regards,
        Walter

      @Walter Hay First thank you for your great help in this forum.

      I am an Engineer 40 years old, making a decent salary but has a great desire to start my own business. I am looking for different ways to start this process.

      Need your suggestion:

      - Is it still worth to start selling private label product on amazon?
      - If yes, please recommend any training program .

      Have a fantastic day....

        If done properly, Private Label selling on Amazon can work brilliantly. The program I recommend is Proven Amazon Course which comes with a free copy of my sourcing and importing book. I will send you a link to PAC. The link reward me for allowing PAC to give my book free on PAC.

        Walter

      Hello Walter -- I just read through your entire "Import Direct From China" ebook today. Great information. I'll have to reread many sections. Quick question, we have a product idea that we want to have custom made in China -- do you still recommend Guided Imports? Do you have any additional recommendations no listed in the book? Thanks Walter! Regards, Debbie

        Hello Debbie,
        Yes, Guided Imports can be of great help to you. Custom making products in China is not for the fainthearted and to have someone trustworthy there to help is well worthwhile.

      Hi Walter

      Your posts are simply eye-opening. I'm only up to page 5 of your Gold AMA thread. I'll definitely finish it but just can't wait to say thank you! Unbelievably informative. Even more amazing is your helpful and humble tone in these articles. I plan to buy your book but need to clear my plate (like finishing this thread) first. Respect.

        I know that many people outside of the USA are selling on Amazon USA, and it seems that most, if not all, are getting their money through Payoneer. I will PM more details on Payoneer.
        If you need professional help in setting up and running an Amazon USA account, see here:

      Thank you for your posts on Importing, kept me busy for hours ;)!
      If possible, would love to share my marketing skills for a little of your time :).
      I cant fully explain my situation (character limits) but I have a supplier lined up, with CE FCC documents however I need to know if they are sufficient to claim from customs when I import - are you able to help?
      Look forward to hearing from you.

      Hi Walter,

      Have been reading through your thread on Import/Export product sourcing, it has been extremely valuable so far. I am in the process of vetting suppliers and have found one that seems promising, however i have concerns which i would like your opinion on. Would you be able to PM me to discuss these? I only have a couple of short questions.

      Just signed up for your ebook when I saw the BBB seal, and then noticed it leads to a site by Jim Cockrum. What's up there?

        I have an arrangement with Jim Cockrum to have his paid support team handle questions from my book readers.

        Jim came to my rescue when I was being overwhelmed by the volume of inquiries, so I handed over the sales side of things to him. He handles everything for me and for that reason all sales go through him and that is why his BBB rating applies.

Sorry for asking you so many questions I am sure that you are flooded with them and it's a blessing that you just give out so much information here, hopefully I will be able to return the favor one day. Thanks again.

        I don't help with product selection except to show how to find products that are not already being imported into the US, EU etc.

        If you scroll down to the answer I gave member WEDNESDAY you will see a link to a new course that teaches you how to find products that have no competition or maybe a small amount in some cases.

        Hi,

        One of the most important things with this product is to be careful not to buy copies of any of the big brands. make sure your is clearly a different design. A different label is not sufficient.

        Because this is a big selling category and big brands dominate, Customs will check most shipments.

      Thanks for all your help on this forum and for sharing your knowledge. I am interested in buying your book and was wondering if Import Directly From China is part of PAC now? Is PAC also your book?

      Which one would you recommend? I wanted to send this as a pm but could not find a way to pm you. Would you be able to send me a pm so I can message you in the future? Thanks.

    My first job after college was with an international shipping company. I later started my own business manufacturing industrial products and began exporting them to Asia/Pacific countries, including China, in 1978.

    I sold that business in 1987 and began importing, selling B2B. Business boomed and after I had employed all my family I expanded by franchising the business. By the time I retired I had franchises operating in 4 countries.

    Heart surgery forced me to sell that business and retire, but I can't make my brain slow down, so I wrote my eBook on safe sourcing and easy importing. I revise it twice a year and I enjoy teaching through my book the hundreds of entrepreneurs in 35 countries who are now using it.
