Drop shipping

eBay drop shipping (also known as product sourcing) is the low-cost business model used by entrepreneurs who buy stock from a supplier and work with them to send orders directly to buyers. In short, it means that drop shippers never handle the ordered items themselves.

When a buyer purchases multiple items from you, you can save time and money by sending all their items in one package.

Handling time & estimated delivery dates

eBay always shows an estimated delivery date on listings, because buyers want to know when they can expect an item to arrive. If you exceed your handling time and ship items later than stated in your listings, your seller performance may be affected.
