I signed up for a 14-day trial of DOBA, which offers dropshipping services and is a recommended eBay partner. They have a "push to marketplace" tool which is convenient and efficient for pushing items in bulk from DOBA to eBay.in the "push" program, you can select a "DOBA default" option which automatically prices the shipping costs from UPS.
So I listed approximately 1,000 items on eBay and after selling 4-5 in the first couple days, I went to process the orders only to find out that DOBA had set the default shipping at $4! Anybody familiar with shipping knows that UPS doesn't ship ANYTHING for $4. So I lost about $20-25 just off the products. Then, I checked my bank statement a few days later to find that my $49.95 trial had been billed as $59.95. After contacting DOBA, the operator informed DOBA would NOT be refunding my money because it was day 16 of the 14 day trial. I would have been fine if they would have at least refunded $10 of my original payment, but they insisted I definitely signed up for the $59.95 option.
SELLERS BEWARE! Drop shipping with DOBA does NOT work and you WILL lose money eventually!
