Default Dropship to Australia?

Hi

I Spent 2 hours on the net yesterday searching for companies that dropship to or within Australia. I came out with nothing worth mentioning. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Cheers
Danielle

What sort of margins can you make with these dropshippers?

Also, I don't know about Soldsmart, but the other 2 companies mentioned seem to be predominantly run by ex South Africans, is there some connection with them?

When I used to be into dropshipping (before I had my own business setup) I only used dealsdirect (www.dealsdirect.com.au). A great site for dropshipping.
I structured it so I made $10 on each item I sold and I tryed to sell over 20 items a day. It wasn't bad money. Cheers Dave

BlackSpider, What gives you the impression that the other 2 companies mentioned are predominantly run by ex South Africans?
To be honest I have no idea if they are connected although It is possible.

Hi David,

I've seen TV ads or info-mercials featuring the directors of Deals Direct and they had South African accents.

Also for OO, I know there are ex South Africans involved in management.
I signed up for business coaching late last lear with Brad Sugars' Action Coaching services and the man who signed us up is an ex South African resident and his wife runs a department at OO.

So I was just wondering if they all formed a group and all 3 companies may be related in some way? Maybe it is just coincidence though.
