My husband was selling on ebay and he was recommended to start using foreign suppliers that would drop ship the goods - only to have those suppliers have difficulty with customs and then ebay and paypal cancelled his account because they frowned upon people using drop shipping from foreign countries. We had a lot of unsatisfied customers - so I would say don't do it.
Peace!

Well, I buy in bulk and I would recommend you do your research. Check with the department of commerce to see if they are on any government watch list. You would be amazed how companies the government doesn't want you to do business with. Second, check with the counties embassy to see if they are a legal business. How will you pay for this item? How is the items being shipped to you? This should put you in the right direction. If not write back and I will give you more information.

Carole, has a very good point. Foreign drop-shippers can be unreliable. Better to work with an importer in your own country that has already cleared all of the items through customs.
