When it comes to video consoles and games it seems to me that there will be no end to that craze about PlayStation, Nintendo, Xbox. Just have a look at the popularity of these three terms over years.

I think it should be illustrated compared to some other popular search term, say, GPS systems (if you have a habit of keeping an eye on popular Amazon products you know that GPS is always on the list of bestsellers.

The product is popular with kids, teenagers and grownups of both genders – video consoles and games target the entire Planet population!

If we approach this fact from home based drop ship business angle we will think in terms of dropshipping both video consoles and video games

Dropship distributor I would look for partnering with should be in business for some time. Huge demand is balanced with huge offer in video games industry – so it is naive to expect to be one of the few players in the niche. The market changes fast with new video games released each month – with dozens of successful releases there are thousands of failures and it is of crucial importance to know and be able to offer those few popular video games.

Where should you start your dropship merchant partner search? Wholesale dropship directory is the first place to turn to. First check these places where you are certain to find a few (not one) verified video game dropshippers:

• Worldwidebrands
• Salehoo
• Doba
• Shopster

If you can’t afford $50-100.00 investment into your home based drop ship business you can do Google research for free lists and verify found dropship merchants yourself.

A few advantages that the above listed drop ship directories provide:

• user’s community where you can find reviews of wholesale dropshippers,
• in-built market research tool that should help you to identify more hot market products to dropship,
• free 7-day trial;
• 100% refund in case you are unhappy with what you get for your money
• find more benefits of getting access to one or a few drop ship sourcing directories

Finding profitable products is crucial to any business including online dropship business. There are special tools available on the market that can help you with your research. A few samples:

• Hot Selling eBay Products Tool
• Drop Ship Focus (free videos)
• Market research tool (comes with access to the largest database of verified dropshippers)
• Keyword research tools

You can supplement them with free resources like:

• eBay Pulse
• Google Insights for Search
• Google Trends

Armed with this entire arsenal you need to just assign some time to regularly monitor the market for new products appearing and getting huge demand (= new opportunities to your business).

Recently I have noticed one popular product using this approach – bratz. I was completely unfamiliar with this. Then I discover that this is toys – dolls with large heads and wide eyes.

I have checked the lists of the verified dropshippers to identify the product suppliers to dropship Bratz I was certainly looking for free Bratz dropshippers with no minimum. Once I have detected Bratz dropship suppliers I could do another, this time more detailed, product research.

The product looks promising, but digging deeper I discover that there is also a Bratz video game that is actually most researched online of all Bratz products (it means the huge Bratz demand is not focused on Bratz dolls, but covers a wide range of miscellaneous products). Another check – this time with Google Insights for Search – and I see that I am likely to be late to the party – the demand peak is declining and Bratz products are popular in some countries where I do not have plans to promote to – Australia, Albania, Mexico.

I do not state that it is impossible to make money drop shipping Bratz products, but it does not look that appealing to me.

This is my simple method to identify those profitable products monitoring online product demand and then making a 30 minutes or longer research to discover any proof signs of the product potential or lack of that.

Video games, consoles and accessories are popular online sellers for a few years now

And there is money in this niche that you can make dropshipping this mega popular items. Need proof? In additiotn to our today’s case study have a look at these posts:

Playstation (PSP) Accessories Dropshipper
Playstation Dropshipper
PSP Dropshipper

Yes and this sort of product is also available from verified dropship merchants in abundance

What I dislike about case studies dealing with ‘hot products’ is that they get no organic traffic – they are new sites (= not established in Google) trying to catch the wave of the product demand, but it leaves you with no choice, but driving traffic with PPC – and it is not cheap as you have to compete with top online retailers biddong for a limited number of keywords.

PSP Dropshipping Site – Easy to Run – Little Work Involved. Make $1000+ / Month

• URL: unbricker.com
• Established: Fri Nov 21 2008
• Page views/month: 1,400
• Monthly Revenue (USD): 450
• Google Pagerank: 0
• Uniques/Month: 600
• BIN: $ 5 000

Description:

Huge Untapped Niche With Very Little Competition

This is a Sony Playstation Portable (PSP) dropshipping site that sells Pandora batteries and memory sticks. This niche sells products that allow Sony PSP owners to make their PSP compatible for downloading free games and installing applications. This is something that every psp owner would want, so there is great demand for these products. This is such an untapped niche, with very little competition, front page google clicks will cost you .05, so there is great potential for high profits.

This is a very easy to run website, there’s almost no work involved. Every item sold is shipped through a dropshipper. There are no products to handle or stock. Just place customer orders with the dropshipper after payment is received and the product is shipped directly to the customer, and respond to customer emails.

I will give you the dropshipper information, you get paid by paypal and you pay the dropshipper using paypal. I will also give you the contact info of the manufacturer of these items and a huge list of all the keywords your competition is using to make serious money in this business.

With the drop shipper method, you will make $10 to $20 profit on each order. If you buy from the manufacture you can make up to $30 per unit.

Traffic and Revenue:

Most of the traffic is generated through Adwords. Anywhere $5-$10 a day would significantly boost traffic. The majority of my traffic is organic and some type-in traffic. This site ranks in the 6th position on the first page of Google for the keyword unbricker.

Revenue – I made a few sales on Ebay and made about $200 net profit when I promoted it for a couple weeks with adwords.

The other sites might be getting more sales but you still have to continue with an adwords campaign and promoting the site to get those results. And some of those sites do not consistently give you the same earnings every month. What I will give the winning bidder is two months of seo and ppc help to get this site to the top of google for many keywords. I will run a ppc campaign for you so you can generate more sales and I can also give you 3 months free hosting at hostgator.com or I can send you a zip file. The domain is registered at godaddy.com.

PSP Batteries & Memory Sticks Dropshipper is a post from: We talk on making money on the Internet

Our today’s dropship case study deals with dropshipping Playstation accessories. This is not the first profitable video game business in our collection of dropship case studies. You can find more detailed stories here:

Playstation (PSP) Accessories Dropshipper

Playstation Dropshipper

PSP Dropshipper

Video consoles, video games, video console accessories – PSP, Xbox, Nintendo – are hot online sellers for a couple of years now. And the trend is likely to last. This proves Google Insights for Search tool as well as the list of eBay top sellers where you can always spot some of the products from this category.

It is definitely worth checking with verified dropshippers what they have to offer and at what prices

Now when you have examined the product line it is time to have a look at the profitability of this sort of dropship business. And the owner is generous to provide us with some details in addition to mentioning of $2000 monthly revenue – he provides a detailed breakup of the prices for 5 top products – invaluable information:

Pandora Battery
- We receive $15.14 and supplier price is $6.40

Pandora Battery & 2GB Mem Stick
- We receive $26.14 and supplier price is $14

Pandora Battery & 4GB Mem Stick
- We receive $33.14 and supplier price is $17

Pandora Battery & 8GB Mem Stick
- We receive $45.14 and supplier price is $21.5

16GB Mem Stick
- We receive $77.14 and supplier price is $46

What is our conclusion? Yes, very nice profitability. And you have enough ground to compare these prices with the prices that your dropshipper will offer you

Another important issue – how to drive traffic to your store. There are a few ways to get your potential customers to the door of your dropship store – e-mail marketing, SEO, PPC, CPM, social sites, etc. some techniques do not fit some do – the project in question is a few months old, so the most expensive and the fastest way to drive targeted traffic is applied – PPC (Google AdWords) though with time it is possible to expand the list of traffic sources.

PSP Dropshipping Business – $2000+ / Month

Easy To Run – 1Hr/Day At Most – Low Competition Niche – Awesome Deal

• Established: Wed Jan 14 2009

My site: www.PSPPandora.net

A premium established website.

It is a dropshipping site for Playstation Portable (PSP) accessories, especially batteries and memory sticks. The custom design was done by a professional designer. The writing was obtained from other sites and our dropshipper’s site.

The site is very easy to run and requires about 1 hour per day at most to process the orders and answer customer e-mails. All products are shipped through a dropshipper so there is no need to maintain inventory or anything like that. You receive an order and payment, then you send the dropshipper the payment and order, and the product will be shipped out directly to the customer. No work on your part. Very straightforward and easy. Also, we have some of the best prices on the net for these products.

You will get complete information about the dropshipper, and if you buy in bulk, you can get even more savings.

This highly targeted niche isn’t very competitive so there is great potential for high profits. Every PSP owner wants to install custom firmware, custom applications, games, etc. So the demand for these products (Pandora Batteries and Memory Sticks) is really high.

This supplier has accessories for many other video game consoles. As well as other non video game accessories. So basically, by buying the website and getting the supplier, you’d have access to a vast number of items at very low prices. So you can easily make similar sites for other video game platforms.

The current BIN of $12,000 is only about 6 months of profits and considering the new owner will receive the supplier source as well, opening new windows, its reasonably firm priced.

Why am I selling?

I am currently in Medical School and had made this site mainly to sell it as I don’t have much time to expand it.

Traffic & Revenue Generation:

Most of the traffic is generated through Adwords – Both Search and Content networks. The new owner will receive the campaign as well as some tips and tricks I have learned along the way to maximize the revenue. I have tried a lot of things so I know what works and what doesn’t. Occasionally, I have also posted on different PSP related forums in relevant topics and sections. I also posted a few products on eBay. However, I didn’t have time to do any of that much. Mainly (over 90%) is through adwords. The campaign is for $10/Day. So about $300 per month. I tried different things and I believe now the campaign is tweaked. The new owner can also try things and I’ll suggest things as well. I also have few other advertising tips that will help that I will mention to the new owner and not release here in public.

Occasionally, I also get e-mails asking for custom pricing and such, so those add to sales as well.

More promotion, SEO, etc. would easily increase the revenue but since that’s all “potential” it’s not included in the price of course Adding tutorials, FAQs, etc. would drastically increase the search engine rankings.

I will provide one year of hosting for free.

All payments are collected through Paypal and also paid by paypal to the dropshipper. You will just have to change the paypal codes to yours. I can help transition the site completely.

Now for product margins:

Five main products:

Pandora Battery
- We receive $15.14 and supplier price is $6.40

Pandora Battery & 2GB Mem Stick
- We receive $26.14 and supplier price is $14

Pandora Battery & 4GB Mem Stick
- We receive $33.14 and supplier price is $17

Pandora Battery & 8GB Mem Stick
- We receive $45.14 and supplier price is $21.5

16GB Mem Stick
- We receive $77.14 and supplier price is $46

Those make up about 90% of our sales. Other 10% are mixed combos, people choosing to buy like 3 8GB or 3 16GB etc.

All the payments in the screenshot represent products sold from the site. The odd payment prices pertain to custom payments.

This is truly a great opportunity and you can earn for doing practically nothing. Requires no maintenance. And you can start right away.

The BIN is set at about 6x the monthly revenue which is reasonable and a bargain for such a premium site. All screenshots attached.

We will accept Escrow.com, Western Union, Wire.

Playstation Dropshipper is a post from: We talk on making money on the Internet

The niche really looks promising though I have no experience with it. The below PSP dropship website was established a few months ago and is already profitable. I do not like the fact that it entirely relies on AdWords traffic – it is quite expensive and not always great for conversions, but the site is a few months old and it has no chance of getting organic traffic (but it should build its mailing list already).

The dropship case in question has quite nice design and it is not always the case with other dropship businesses covered on our website

Ugly design is the first step of losing the potential customer’s credibility. Our task is to do our best to make the visitor feel he deals with a reliable e-commerce site. To achieve that, we should either imitate the features of top e-stores in our niches or we should follow general e-commerce trends and tips

It is a certain way to increase conversions and profitability of our online dropship business. I know from my experience – sometimes I would entirely focus on building traffic to dropship website and then feel frustrated that only a few visitors turned into buyers…
