Well I helped a friend setup a e store years ago and he focused mainly on a computer battery niche. He would buy about 100 battery's at a time and sell them all. He now wants to move into mp3's xbox 360's and other things but does not have the budget to buy large amounts. Would a dropshipper work for what he wants and if so does anyone have reviews on dropshippers they have used?

Dropshipping would be perfect for him. I have seen a bunch of good reviews for Worldwide Brands. They are not a dropshipper themselves but they work with the dropshippers to get you the best deals and make the connections.

Thanks. Do you know of any free ones since worldwide brands seems to be paid? He only makes about 1 dollar per sale and we are looking at as many options as possible. I will help him sign up with the worldwide brands thanks for the link. We also looked at amazon dropshipping but amazon places there logo on the box which kind of ruins the point of a dropshipper.

I don't know of any free services. It seems that dropshippers are hard to find and they are a closely guarded secret.

You might have some luck searching for retailers that offer reseller programs.

Thanks for all of this we used the site you suggested and hopefully I can help him start his orders so he doesnt have to bulk buy 100+ items anymore.

Contact big companies directly like newegg or tigerdirect.

Easiest option is to implement an Ebay or Amazon widget on your site.
