Buyer’s Remorse? Naah. But I am no longer using WorldWide Brands for eBay.

In my last post I mentioned that I got some software from Christopher Bernard the guy behind the Dropshipping Sucks website.  This software allows me to find products on different wholesalers and other places with great speed and ease.  It also allows me to research products which I must admit I have not done yet.

I love the software.  It is very cool and I find myself using it even to find products I buy for myself.  It is just very good at finding products for cheap.

However, there has been one downside.  A little while ago I bit the $299 bullet and invested in a company called WorldWide Brands.  I was and am still happy with it as clearly a lot of thought and time has gone into the development of their product.  I am just not using it anymore due to my using Chris’ software.

I read through the user agreement and I cannot resell my login to anyone else.  So I guess I am stuck with something that I no longer use.  I will not call it a $299 mistake because as I said, before I got this software I was using WorldWide Brands somewhat to find products for my eBay sales.

On that note, I do seem to have peeked somewhat.  I am consistantly selling and making money on eBay but I do not seem to be able to take it to the next level.  I am almost certianly going to try selling elsewhere maybe on Amazon or on my own website.  Yikes!  I would have to build a website!

I suppose it is goodbye forever to my $299 but I have benefitted from the experience.  Now I must get back to eBay.  And, unfortunately, to my real job which I STILL have.

Wish me luck!

Long Time Gone… Doin’ Fine on eBay!

I haven’t been here for a while.  I have been pretty busy working on my eBay business.  But, I thought now would be a good time for an update.

I have been continuing to play around with my WorldWide Brands membership but have yet to really try selling anything from there.  I seem to be addicted to the Drop Shipping Sucks stuff.  For me it is just easier and now I have experience at it so it seems to make more sense.

I have decided to do my taxes a little early this year and when my return comes I plan to really invest in some products because I think it is time to have some inventory finally.  Right now I may buy one of an item or maybe buy five or six if I think it is really a good seller.  But I would like to try and buy some quantity now.  Hopefully I won’t make a mistake and blow my tax cash!

That is it.  Between work and eBay I have very little time these days.  I promise, I will be back on this weekend and actually write something of value!!

Wish me Luck!

Enough Money on eBay to Take the WorldWide Brands $300 Leap!

Ok.  I have done it.  I have purchased a Worldwide Brands membership to their Onesource program!  Since Chris gave it a good review (see review here) I decided once I had made enough money on my eBay sales using the tips from the Better Sources guide I would take the $300 plunge.

So far, it looks good but it is kind of overwhelming.  I really don’t know where to start.  Also, it seems like there is some upselling going on.  Did anyone else notice this?  Are the extra paid features worth the money?

There are definately tons of wholesalers and (uh-oh!) drop shippers.  Don’t worry, I will not use the drop shippers.

I think I will play around in here for a few days before I actually buy any products.  I am happy with what I am doing right now so there is no need to be in a rush.  But at first glance Onesource looks really complete even without the additional things available.

I just thought you would like to hear that I finally did join Worldwide Brands like I was saying I would eventually do.  I will write my OWN complete review once have really looked around in there.  I also notice they have an affiliate program like Chris does so I will join that so when I write my review maybe you can use my link to signup and earn me some money!

Let me just add too that other people have said that Worldwide Brands and DOBA are that same.  Now, having joined both, I can say they are not at all.  DOBA was like a big online store with products that could be drop shipped.  Worldwide brands is a bunch of suppliers and tools.  I have not made an opinion on Worldwide Bands yet but as you know if you read my blog, I did not like DOBA at all.

Wish me luck!

A New eBay Drop Shipping Picture Finally!

It has been a long time since I posted another funny picture from Drop Shipping Sucks.  Here one is!  I decided today would be a good day because I am celebrating my passing the $300 profit mark!  Now, if I can turn that into $300,000 I will be happy.

Ok, I am not greedy.  One level at a time is fine.  $300 then $3000 then $30,000 then!!!

I am also looking into trying Worldwide Brands which Chris does recommend but right now I am doing so well I am worried it might take me back.  The membership cost would wipe out 100% of my profits so far so I think I will wait to I have at least a $500 cushion and then maybe give it a fly.  Since right now I am buying products signifigantly under wholesale price, it might be a step backwards in that regard.  We will see what I decide next week.

Wish me luck!
