If you are a digital entrepreneur with an online store, you must have heard rumors about the death of dropshipping on eBay and I guess that now you are terribly worried about the future of your business.

Well, I’ll tell you this: you have no need to!

The change in eBay policies

As you know, often bad news spread faster than good ones, even when they are not true. The same exact thing happened this time too.

So what did really happen? In just few words, eBay changed its policy regarding dropshipping.

As they affirm in their official communication: “Drop shipping, where you fulfill orders directly from a wholesale supplier, is allowed.”

What is forbidden now, is “listing an item on eBay and then purchasing the item from another retailer or marketplace that ships directly to your customer”, said with their words.

Simply put, this means you cannot have an eBay store and buy from other external marketplaces and retailers. The only allowed way of doing dropshipping on eBay is now closing an agreement with one or more wholesale suppliers, namely a dropshipping agreement, through which the wholesale suppliers allow you to sell their products on your store and shipping them directly to your final customer.

Good news then: practicing dropshipping via eBay is still possible, but with some new implications and rules.

However, finding new trustworthy suppliers, able to communicate easily with you, may be a very hard challenge.

If you are not sure you want to argue with foreign factory representatives, exchanging useless and complicated emails without understanding well the terms of your agreement and the features of the products, then uDroppy is the solution to your problems!

As we just said, eBay has changed the rules for dropshippers, putting you in a challenging situation. Now you will have to find new wholesales suppliers, trustable, easy to communicate with and favorable to signing a dropshipping agreement with you.

Not to mention all the issues with customer service and refunds practices.
