What's something I can

2) assemble or partially build myself or learn on /diy/ if I'm too autismo to do anything
3) sell via dropship

Inb4 fucking jewelry

Listen here start with Shopify but once you increase your profits start using Magento. Saas is fine but the fees are stupid on Shopify. Alibaba is good for dropshipping but I would request 3 samples from the seller before mass buying.

No one on this board is making a killing on cryptocurrency. Because it's not possible. Anyone who says otherwise is better left in his own Wonderland.

If someone knew they'd be doing it themselves right now anon. That's the trouble with threads about drop shipping, affiliate marketing and blogging and whatnot. The market is already incredibly saturated so anyone who has a good idea or a profitable site isn't going to post it here for people to rip off. So we get stuck in an endless loop where people SAY they've had success but no one wants to share any ideas so it's impossible to tell the shills from the idiots from the actual successful people...if there are any.

Not at all. I pay for their services but I am not employed or contracted by Shopify.

Anyone here making a killing on Print on Demand t-shirts?

Printful is too expensive.
Gooten shill for themselves and have a terrible GUI.
Other companies only have integration with Shopify (I am a self-hosted Woocommerce kind of guy).

What I want is
1. Very good price.
2. Shipping from both EU and US.
3. Full flexibility where I want my stuff hosted.
4. No review process. If I can submit it, you fkn print it.

>>2001741

Also: Excellent mockup-generator. I want to generate excellent pics, like the quality I get with Printful or Zazzle.

Thanks, but I don't like their review process though.

Forbidden:

Any content from a television show or a movie (characters, places, artwork etc)"

It is not up to them to determine if my artwork based on something else is fair use, or if the logo I used is currently in the public domain or not.

They are $1 cheaper with shipping than Printful though, and they do have EU shipping too.

Buy the dip. Hold, don't chase. Do your research and figure what's bullshit and what isn't. Don't panic sell.

My reccomendations:
Verge
RLC
Waves
ETH
BitBay

Those should get you going. Buy and hold all of those for a month and you will make ~50% or more easy. If you want to live dangerously, sell at the peaks and buy at the dips when it's volatile to compound your gainz.

Spain?

I know a guy from spain, and he has a youtube channel and said you have to pay 270€ fee a month (or any other entrepeneur activity).

You get free healthcare and don't go bankrupt if you need to go to the hospital, but you get scammed as an entrepeneur.

There's no way to win in this world, other than getting rich (and waggiecucking will not cut it)

No, Hungary.
Same shit though, our commie EU overlords decide what we're allowed to do for how much money.
It's complete lunacy, you have to pay yourself a minimum wage and pay taxes as both an employer and an employee.
And free healthcare is a myth, the reality is that you are required to participate in a government run healthcare. They quite literally hold a gun to your head and make you pay for the government healthcare which therefore has zero competition. Because there isn't any competition at all there's basically no incentive for the government to give you good healthcare because you're going to pay for it either way.
And the only things it covers are emergencies and doctor appointments.
If you want braces you have to pay for it.
If you want glasses you have to pay for it.
If you want a cancer screening you have to pay for it.
If you want a roentgen you have to pay for it.
If you need a surgery you're put on a waiting list and it can take more than a year until it's your turn, so if you really need it and don't want to die you have to go to a private clinic.

How do you decide which sellers to buy from on aliexpress once you have a niche? Can you go through one supplier and get samples sent before pulling the trigger on buying in bulk?

>>2002736
>rating higher than 97%
>open more than a year (less likely to shut down)
>product is 5-star
>lots of photo reviews so you can see the actual product

Pick a product that has more than one supplier in case your supplier shuts down store.

>>2002313
Where do you get gift certs?

Has anyone run into problems with shipping? Free shipping is great but does the delivery time cause problems?

I know a little about shipping already from a past job but never used epacket. Is it possible to hide seller address and certain details like shipping cost on the label? Not sure if this is even an issue with epacket but I've worked for an online apparel store that could make profit on shipping charges and would hide the shipping cost on the labels we sent out.

I must be retarded, I just don't understand how to get started. Like who do I call? I'll make a fool out of myself. How to know the product is legit? Any drop-shippers around California I can hang out with and shadow or pick your brain? Maybe over drinks or something.

>>2004424
Call your local china town and ask for the eggroll, they'll know what you mean

I posted in a drop shipping thread sometime last summer. My first site was looking fire as fuck. I had an amazing ad banner which I used to promote the site on 4chin.

It failed. It failed so hard, I tried for months to get it started but I got 0 sales after all the time I spent setting it up. I used the bread and butter of drop shipping, shopify and the oberlo plugin. I think oberlo is free now, btw.

I want to get back into dropshipping but I only have about $100 a month of budget to work with right now. Do you guys think this is enough money including the Shopify fees to try this shit again? I know one thing for sure though, I won't be fuckin around with the anime shit anymore. Those weebs are too smart for me

>>2004617
So you made a banner to your shit site and thought you could make sales from the retards on here? Where you using something else to get traffic?

Why do you even talk about $ per month? You either put in money or time. If you do not have the money, you better put in time. Hosting is next to free. Woocommerce costs nothing. Just write proper copy and put up 10K products. It will take you months, but you can't fap with all your free time.

This notion that the only way people are gonna get traffic, is by paying for it, should stop.

Still looking for t-shirt print on demand.
Need:
>very cheap
>EU and US shipping source
>Good mockup generator
>No shopify integration and showcase crap
>No BS approval process, or royalty crap like Teespring.

So where do I get the good sources? Basically I want to have 1000s of designs on my hard-drive, and upload every time I make a sale. I run self-hosted Woocommerce. I don't need no billing system and I don't need anybody to offer traffic through their system.

When I look at Ebay I notice a lot of people selling for 13.95 plus about 3 bucks shipping, and I believe they do print-on-demand. This should mean that they are printing and shipping at a maximum of $12 for a Gildan brand shirt.

If I look at most print-on-demand sources, hardly any can print and ship for less than $12. But they have to be out there.

if you make them, how much do you spend on them?
if you get them from suppliers, do you only pick items which have the decent photos?

A few questions for a potential newbie here:

-Do you have to purchase the product AHEAD of the purchase from places like Alibaba or do you only buy from the supplier when the purchase go through on the customers end?

-Is there some specific way taxes are calculated for drop shippers in particular? Is there an import tax for times coming form China? How about on your income tax?

-If a customer is not happy with their product, do you have to foot the bill for the return shipping and/or the cost of the item itself? I wouldn't want to sell a bunch of things then have people suddenly return them an be in a hole.

-What is the minimum amount of capital is that would be a good place to start with? Would $500 be enough?

Any other newbie tips would be appreciated

Thanks in advance!

>>2006047
Not him, but those photos seem to be from Aliexpress.

I would personally not sell anything that did not have a decent photo.

>>2006068
>Do you have to purchase the product AHEAD
If you buy it in advance, it is not dropshipping.

>-If a customer is not happy with their product, do you have to foot the bill
If you are not on Ebay or Amazon, make returns more difficult. By all means, charge for the return shipping, IMHO. In the event you HAVE to take a return, you can probably chalk it off to loss.

>Would $500 be enough?
You can start with less. It is wiser to learn how to build traffic, than hope to get a good ROI on ad-buys, without having experience.

So I found someone else's store and he seems to be making pretty good sales, I'm about to copy that store word for word but change the name and logo. Convince me why I shouldn't do this

>>2006122
>Not him, but those photos seem to be from Aliexpress.

As a drop shipper do you need to file for any type of license or special certifications for taxes, etc.?

Pretty sure I fucked this up. Made my Shopifly account and did all the import stuff, but then I made a squarespace account and now I think I essentially made two separate stores. I can import all my import stuff to sqarespace, but I don't know if I'm still under Aliexpress.

How does anything work? You put work in.

You are mistaken if you think anyone is gonna sell you clicks that give you more than 10% ROI, ever, and you mostly get negative numbers.

>which is some fucking voodoo magic to me
Longtails are the key. Put 10K products in there. Get unique copy for all of it. You will rank, for some of them. No easy fixes in this world. I am currently selling 1200 products. Took me about a year to get there.

sounds like a plan

>>2006998
>What if somebody buys more items than I can afford.
You'll be starting from 0, so you are unlikely to get more orders than you can handle. Just keep the money-management in mind. Besides, it takes 2 days to get money from PP to your bank account where it is instantly available for orders via your CC. So the worst delay you get on Aliexpress is +2 days. That is just a fraction of how long the customer will be waiting for the product anyway.

>maybe I can just try to make money from my recently approved amazon merch account

Sounds good. Lucky bastard, mine is still pending. Check out the big Merch thread on BHW, IMHO:
