It gives you the stats on current Amazon products.

I have no clue which type of product to research. Will it tell me the best sellers or do I have to have an idea of the product I want to research first?

Thanks for all your help.

You have to have an idea already. There is no magic program that will let you what to research. You have to be creative.

Many people will just go to the top 100 in a category and go from there. I think it's a good place to start. You just don't get stuck here and be willing to branch out.

This is probably the best thread I've found on the net so far explaining it

How to Generate $100 per Day with eBay Dropshipping in Less Than 2 Hours

STEP 1 - Obtain an eBay account. If you already have one, then please proceed to STEP 2. If not, keep reading…

If you’re fortunate enough to be armed with the knowledge and competence to start your own eBay stealth account, as well as keep it alive, then your 2 steps ahead of the game. Proceed to step 3.

If not, I highly recommend this guide: http://arbitrageprofitspy.com/master...alth-Guide.pdf

It’s always updated and works if you follow all detailed instructions inside. No shortcuts!

NOTE: If you have access to $100 - $200, you can purchase an eBay stealth account on BHW or use the resource I give you inside the stealth guide above. The combo packages inside the book contain both eBay/Paypal verified accounts with selling limits up to 1000 items sold per month.


STEP 2 – Obtain a secondary Amazon account. Skip this step if you already have one.

You never want to use your own personal account. Always start a new account with a new name, email, address, IP, and CC info. This is fairly simple if you can obtain a VCC, which are sold all over BHW.

You can also try out Entropay.com, greendot.com, or any other prepaid CC you can find at your local drugstore.


STEP 3 – Find high profit products to flip on Amazon. You can do this one of two ways.

a) Manual - Spend days worth of time, comparing products from Amazon to the same products selling on eBay for a worthwhile profit ($4 - $20 after fees). This is probably the most painful and time consuming process of the retail arbitrage system.

Use this calculator for all product comparisons. It’s one of the faster calculators available online:eBay PayPal Fee Calculator | Calculate your eBay/PayPal Profits

Create an excel spreadsheet of the products you find that meet the minimum profit margin of over $4+ and list them once you obtain 10-20 products.

b) Automated – Utilize Profit Spy to automatically fetch 100s of products to flip on eBay with 10-50% profit margins.

This should take less than 1 hour and uncover well over 150 products, within an hour, that you can resell at any given time.

If you value your time, the choice is obvious. If you’re ok with making $3 per hour, choose the manual route.


STEP 4 – List your Ebay items and start building up your account reputation slowly. Skip this step if you already have an established eBay account.

Start selling low dollar, low risk items to build up the reputation of your account and follow ALL guidelines and safety precautions outlined in the Stealth eBook I gave you above.

If you already have an aged account with feedback and high selling limits, then you’re more than welcome to sell more high risk items.


STEP 5- Dropship product from your Amazon account. Once your eBay item sells, order the product from your Amazon account utilizing Amazon Prime (will need a VCC to verify) or wait till you accumulate over $35 in products and take advantage of their free shipping.

NOTE: I highly recommend you utilize Amazon Prime. Not only is it faster (2 day shipping), but will allow you to quickly build up positive feedback on your new eBay accounts.

There is absolutely no easier way to build up tons of quality feedback than 2 day shipping and great customer support.

TIP: Make sure that all amazon products shipped are marked as a “gift”. You will see this option inside your shopping cart upon checkout. This will ensure that an invoice is not sent within the shipped package.


STEP 6 – Wait for shipping notifications. Keep an eye out on your Amazon email for shipping notifications and notate tracking information on your eBay sellers dashboard once you receive tracking confirmation. NOTE: This is very important if you want Paypal to release your funds in a few days, as opposed to 21 days without it.


STEP 7 – Keep track all of your items sold with excel. Note the title, price sold, price purchased, profit margin, tracking info, notes section, and ebay/paypal fees if you feel the need.

You can download my Product Management Spreadsheet here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/w6tz30is0s...heet.xlsx?dl=0


Step 8 – Keep your eBay item prices up-to-date with your Amazon dropshipper. This is a VERY important step and should not be skipped. Amazon prices fluctuate all the time and if you don’t update your eBay prices accordingly, you will be left with a no profit or even worse, negative ROI.


There are 3 ways of keeping your inventory updated:


a) Manual – copy and paste all Amazon urls and prices into excel and check them daily for price fluctuations. This can get daunting after you have an inventory of over 20 products.

b) Semi-automatic – If you have a Profit Spy account (Detective/Secret Spy plan only) you can monitor all Amazon prices by simply clicking on the Amazon Updates button.
This will show you a color coded list of your fetched Amazon product prices and display which ones have gone up, down, or stayed the same.

Feature video located here:

c) Price Yak – this fully automated system updates your eBay listings automatically, every hour, day, or whatever time interval you decide to choose.
They will also take care of auto ordering your Amazon products. I would only use this if your profit margin for that particular item is fairly high as it costs $1 per item (if your profit margin is above $5, I would recommend using it)

Lastly, Price Yak will fetch the Amazon listing and post it onto your eBay account.

NOTE: I highly recommend changing up your title and use highly quality images if the ones supplied by Amazon are subpar.

Amazon frowns heavily on dropshipping and it will get you kicked off of the platform. Also private labeling is NOT dropshipping. Other than that many people use it to generate income.

:snoop: $100 a day is chump change. It's not worth the risk.

Private labeling is not a side hustle. It's about building brands to sell or pitch to major retailers. There are literally people making 30k a month on one 1 product. There is no reason to short change yourself via drop shipping nor worth losing your account. Drop ship via Ebay. DO NOT drop ship via Amazon.

Lol chump change, okay. Like explained in the link it's all about scaling. Considered the fact that once everything is set up, the rest is pretty much automated, $100 a day sounds pretty good.
And not everyone is smart enough or has enough time to "build a brand". That's easier said than done.

I posted that for people who want to make some quick money or test the waters.
And regardless if you dropship on Ebay or Amazon, the idea is still the same, you don't have to do just Amazon. The knowledge is there though.

I have to go back and reread this thread. I want to get started iN September so I am collecting all of the information that I can. Also would you say that $3,000 is a good starting investment @BlackPearl or should I start lower?

what he posted refers to Amazon to eBay dropshipping.. as long as you aren't using an Amazon prime account to dropship your items to eBay they are fine with it, i know a few people who scaled that method up and are doing high 4 figures in profit with it monthly.

but dropshipping on Amazon marketplace itself is what they cant stand (and part of what i used to do)...
