Shipping items for sale
Hello, if I buy an item on Friday and have it shipped, not having it here with me but having to get it sent from my supplier to my buyer, how does eBay shipping work? Could I have my buyer open it and inform eBay that I’m handling the shipping myself?

Mentore2 years agoIt's called dropshipping, and without the proper authorization, you can't do it on eBay

Mentore2 years agoYou need to go to an accountant, who will tell you that: ….. to do dropshipping in Italy it is necessary to open a VAT number with Ateco code 47.91.10 “Retail sale of products via the internet”, register with the Companies Register and the INPS Merchants Management, submit the Certified Notification of Start of Activity (S.C.I.A.).
