How is Direct Dropship pricing compared to similar sites?

You will find that our pricing is comparable or lower than that of similar sites. We have listed our secrets below.


We realize your goal is to get your prices as low as you can so that you have room to make a profit and be competitive, and our job is to make that as possible as we can. So here is how our pricing works and what we do to keep your prices as low as we can.


We sell all our products at cost and charge you only what we are charged to ship your order to your customer. We make our money from our subscription fees


We have negotiated discounts with many of our suppliers due to our volume and pass those discounts to you. The same holds true for our shipping carriers.


We have a wide variety of suppliers that we work with, so our pricing will range from a fraction of wholesale to above wholesale.


There is not a single supplier you will find where everything they have will be the cheapest you will find on the internet (not ones that have thousands of products spanning many categories). However, most of them, including us, will have a nice chunk of products that will have excellent pricing and sell very fast. This is why we recommend listing an entire niche/category of products so that way you will pick up all the good selling products. Do not just pick and choose a handful of items to sell. Our customers that follow this advice see regular and consistent sales.


Even if a product is priced high now, if the product doesn't move and ends up sitting stale in the warehouse, we will lower the price and minutes later you will be the lowest on the internet if you already have the product listed. When the price drops the product tends to sell out fast, which is why it is good to already have it listed.


Additionally, even though the price may be higher than other sellers, customers will still buy from you. You may not sell all of the stock, but even if you sold one a year you would still end up making profit, imagine having 30,000 products selling once a year, you would suddenly have a lot of sales.


There are many companies out there that spend millions/billions of dollars just buying a handful of different products in bulk, they bought so many, that in most cases these companies have already made all their money back before they even sell 50-75% of what they had started with, then they will take what they have left and unload it on sites like eBay and Amazon for pennies on the dollar which to the company selling it doesn't matter because what they have left is all profit for them. These sellers are really hard to compete with, but the good news is, it usually doesn't take them that long to run out of stock.


At the end of the day, you are in business to make money. We get that. So let me ask, what sounds better? 100 sales making $1 profit each or 10 sales making $10 profit each? The end result is the same, but you will tie up more resources and spend more time managing those 100 orders than those 10 orders.


Keep in mind, you don't have to be the lowest on the internet to make a sale. Sure, you may not get as many sales as the seller who is the lowest, but even if the products only sell once a year for you, and you have tens of thousands of products listed, it will still come out to a lot of sales. We are confident that if you have thousands of our products listed, you will have many products that will sell way more than once a year. 


In a nutshell, try to list entire niches, brands, or categories at a time, and then add as many new niches/categories as you want to get in to and manage from there. The more products you get listed the more sales you will see. For example. a seller listed all 30k+ of our products on eBay and their account was Above Standard or Top Rated. They would see over $100k+ in sales each month consistently. This can be you too.


If you have any questions or run into any trouble listing or finding products, please do not hesitate to reach out to us. We'll be happy to help.
