Drop Shipping has become hugely poplar with the growth of ecommerce on the internet. A retailer with a web site can sell items they never have to see or touch, using wholesale drop shipping services.

Kole Imports has a new drop shipping site, where an online retailer can get XML feeds containing item information, item picture locations, and pricing. Using this feed, it's easy for a retailer to add Kole Imports' wholesale merchandise to their web site and profit on the sales while Kole Imports warehouses and ships the merchandise. Kole doesn't charge any fees for retailers to sign up and use the data feed. The online retailer just pays for the merchandise and the shipping, and marks the item prices up to determine their profit.

Be careful when selecting a wholesale drop shipper. You need to be sure you know exactly how they do business, and you need to know if there will be any recurring fees or start-up costs. Ideally, the drop shipper will make money every time you sell one of their items, so they shouldn't be profiting from charging you membership fees or other charges unrelated to the merchandise you are selling to your customers. If the dropshipper wants to charge you a set-up fee or a monthly subscription fee, there is a good chance they are more interested in making money from charging people fees than in actually selling and shipping merchandise.
