Wholesale Business FAQs
Should I try Ebay?
Yes. One of the many good things about Ebay is that it is very easy and inexpensive to use. If you already have a business Ebay can be a profitable, alternative distribution channel. If you are just starting out, give it a try by listing a few products in order to see what happens. The Ebay market place will tell you if you have something to offer. Keep in mind that it is important to have some edge: something different, cheaper or more accessible. Ebay is potentially very rewarding for a number of reasons so check out the possibilities for your particular situation. There is little to loose and lots to gain.
Do you dropship?
Yes we do. Just let us know the address of your customer along with the order. We will take care of the rest.
Is pick up available for your merchandise?
Yes. At our warehouse in Mansfield, Ohio by appointment.
How do I know who I am doing business with and if they are credit worthy?
For as long as I can remember we would request credit reference sheets for new customers and vendors. Today we save a lot of time by checking out Ebay profiles and Paypal history. Nothing is full proof but a good Ebay feedback rating is all I need to make a decision.

Hi there, I have recently opened up my very own Ebay store and I was wondering how you come across wholesale and liquidation lots such as these. Do you work with a certain group or something. Any help is appreciated. Glenn
Manufacturers contact me when they want to closeout merchandise. I am a liquidation/wholesale closeout company with fifteen years of experience buying and selling 1000's of different items. This has afforded me a sense of what to pay for merchandise and the financial capability and confidence to purchase very large quantities when the best liquidation opportunities present themselves. Unless you want to develop this kind of business on your own your best bet is to purchase from a few select companies in the wholesale closeout business. Get to know the owner and make some deals of your own for whatever quantities you can handle. You will be one step from the source but can still mak great deals without taking huge risks.
