Drop Shipping Defined

Drop shipping is a retail method in which merchandise is shipped to the customer directly from the warehouse or supplier rather than from the retailer. When a product is sold, the retailer passes along the customers' order information to the wholesaler or supplier who then packages and ships the product.This process minimizes risk because the retailer does not need to buy the product until it has sold. Suppliers take care of the warehousing, packaging, and shipping of products, saving you a great deal of money.

The product selling process

  1. Find products to sell from our Product Catalog.
  2. List those products on a web site or auction (use the descriptions and images on our site).
  3. After the product sells collect the money from the buyer.
  4. Place the product order through Doba after receiving payment from the buyer. The difference between what the sale and the costs is the PROFIT to keep.
  5. The product is shipped directly to the customer.
