Thanks,looking forward to it. As a related question do you have any time frame for releasing the drop shipping plugin? If you can let us know say a month ,six months, a year? That would help. I would hate to buy the codecanyon ugin only to find that you're is being released soon. It sound as though your plugin is superior, but if it will never be available then we may have to go with second best. Thanksgiving

The Plugin will be available. Approximate time frames - after 1-3 months.
I am an Aliexpress addict and this was something I thought was profitable. I was not sure about the long shipping times but it is true that since shipping costs are free people will expect to be slow.
I dont read the whole post, but I hope your site is going great after half a year :)

The site was developed from scratch (including the theme and special ecommerce plugin that allows searching and importing products directly from AliExpress through your WP admin panel automatically).
Based on experience of other successful dropshipping projetcs I decided:
- take a narrow niche;
- select only most popular products in this niche;
- import products with wholesale price not more than $20;
- increase prices at about twice the standard cost;
- sell products with free worldwide shipping option only;
Another feature of this site is that the plugin imports only products that participate in AliExpress affiliate program. So, if I get any order I will be able to purchase necessary item on AliExpress using my affiliate link to get additional 5%-50% commission.
The site still needs some improvements but I am going to start marketing it very soon and I will be glad to share my experience with you here.
Great plugin pre-sale thread!

Hey bro thanks for sharing your journey, I love your store.
But my question is do you give your customer their tracking order number ? We know a lot of them will ask right after they place the order and if you give them the tracking number isn't it kinda bad that it says it's coming from China ? Did you have any problems with this ? Or do people not care ? Do you think you might lose your potential returning customer if they see it's coming from China when it says it's coming from there ?
Keep up the good work.
@agape - Valid points but I think you are overthinking this. Either they buy or they don't. Putting the offer in front of more people is faster and easier than worrying about people who don't like China. You simply can't satisfy everybody, so relax, and promote more.
Paypal and eBay care *so* much they don't even bother with customer service or replying to emails.
Are there any update about Plugin Update and earning here
Great job taking action bud! Wholesale purchasing (not dropshipping) comes with many benefits if you have the upfront inventory costs to do it AND most important, have done your due diligence with market research to ensure your not buying a sh*tload of products and sitting on them for months on end.
I would recommend you start dropshipping from Amazon (product arbitrage) until you find a few products that are selling well and then make a large purchase via whole on Alibaba.
Belive me, it works out very well and you get to test the market out before you make a commitment.
