If you actually want to make money ignore CryptoFags and learn about dropshipping.

What kind of credit card should I get for dropshipping from aliexpress?

I'm in no rush since I might first have to get a secured credit card because I have no credit score.

How do I find a good niche?

And doesn't shipping take a looong time from china? How can I prevent pissed off customers?

Also, how do you dropship from the USA or find people willing to do it? Ideally, I would want to start with aliexpress, but then eventually move on to small time companies in my niche that would be willing to ship their goods that I would list on my shopify.

Seriously though, this is pretty interesting. You have to order the stuff from aliexpress for your customers, right?

>> No.1900812

Honestly I wouldnt give a credit card to those chinks, get a debit card on the same bank as your main card and then just transfer across when needed

>>1900772
scroll through facebook until you see an ad for something that looks like dropshipped crap, then replicate it. Some AliExpress shops actually have warehouses in other countries as well.

>>1900776
Put on your least autistic voice and call up suppliers/manufacturers. I don't have much experience with this sadly sorry

Tfw i already have the shopify opened, oberlo, the niche, but have to create a society so the government can tax me and open a society bank account, or i wont be able to accept credit card.

Is this normal?

I'm setting up a store in switzerland atm I was thinking of buying selected stuff (around 15 products) from aliexpress bymyself and store it in my basement .. make some product review by myself and sell it as "tested and usefull" also my buyers do profit from 1-3 days local delivery .. I've around $1k to spend which I already started to invest in a sick domainname / hosting service / woocommerce and flatsome design rest should be for advertising and buying my stock.

Now my question is, can I enlarge my shop woocommerce shop by this dropshipping method you mentioned? and if I see a product is going well I could add it to my "buy to local stock" for being able to deliver within 3 days..

what do you think? any further advices?

First and foremost, your store sucks. You didn't fix AliExpress' shitty product names and spelling mistakes, you have no niche (meaning you're trying to sell all types of things [meaning you can't pinpoint an audience to advertise to {if you did advertise at all}]), and finally,

- I have enough space for the stock
also some spare money for investing
- I can provide my clients 1-2 days delivery instead of 3 weeks which I see as a USP
- I can check product before shipping if they are damaged
- Good packing, including a delivery note
- easy returnshipment for my customers
