We faced this question many times. Why drop shipping with Spocket, while you can drop ship Chinese products using AliExpress and Alibaba?

Let us briefly explain why drop-shipping with Spocket outperforms drop shipping with AliExpress and other Chinese products.

What is Spocket?

Spocket is one of the largest dropshipping marketplaces for high quality, locally sourced and highly discounted goods. You can find anything from clothing to stunning woodworks. There are tens of thousands of products on Spocket that are between 30% — 60% discounted and ready tobe sold in your online shop. Did I mention the 2–5 days of fast shipping?

Why using Spocket to source drop shipping products:

1 — Fast shipping:

Shipping AliExpress products take between 20–55 days on-average. Imagine how many emails you will receive from your customers while they are waiting to receive their products; They might even think you are a scammer.

In the other hand, shipping Spocket products take between 5–7 days on average and even faster for locally sourced products. Your customers are happier and will purchase more from your site.

2 — Higher Mark-up:

Remember that we mentioned uniqueness as one of the strength of Spocket products? Since products on Spocket are unique and sourced from reliable suppliers, you can mark-up the prices much higher than Chinese products. Spocket products are rare, discounted and fast shipping and customers are willing to pay more for them.

Drop shipping with Spocket has many more advantages like reliable sellers, advanced and custom search, big pool of customized products and etc. Hopefully, you have a better understanding that why drop shipping with Spocket is the future and the best way to run your online commerce.

Spocket is also available on the WooCommerce plugin store.
