How to Dropship from Aliexpress to eBay with AutoDS (Lazy Method)

Bill Gates once said that I will always choose a lazy person to do a difficult job because a lazy person will always find an easy way to do it so in this video we're going to look at the laziest way to start drop shipping on ebay now dropshipping is a model where we

find items on other retail websites like Aliexpress calm and we list them up for sale on eBay then once they sell we buy them directly on Aliexpress and ship them directly to our customers which means we never have to handle the inventory ourselves now this process can be done fully manually if you want so that means you are going to go on Aliexpress and go on eBay see what items are already selling well on eBay that you can buy from Aliexpress list them up for sale on eBay by copying everything from Aliexpress pasting it into eBay doing all that manually but of course there are now ways to automate that process make it go much faster so I made a video recently you might want to check that out that video shows the current way that I do this drop shipping its a mix between manual and automatic drop shipping and it really feel like it's the best approach to dropship you see if you go fully manual there are definitely benefits to that method what you're going to see is that you're going to have more control over the whole process you're going to see exactly what is going into your store and you exactly check that every item that's going in there is the item that you want in there but the drawback of doing everything manually is that it takes a lot of time with an automated approach the benefits there is that it takes you zero or no time to actually list products and to get the whole process going now the drawback there is that you don't have as much direct oversight or control a lot of times because you know when something's automated we tend to get a little bit lazy and not pay as much attention to it now with the method I show it in that last video it's kind of a mix between the two and I still think that's the best method for you to use but I know

some of you guys are lazy out there so in this video I want to show you the lazy way to start drop shipping onto eBay and the lazy method requires you to just press one button which is the thumbs up button underneath this video alright just kidding guys but seriously hit that like button now let's go into my computer so I can show you the lazy way to start drop shipping onto

eBay okay so this is the software that I used to run my ebay drop shipping business it's called Auto D s now this software does a lot of different things to help me run my business it will help me find products it will then list them up for sale and it will help me with order fulfillment as well again we're trying to do as lazy as possible here so once you sign up for an auto D s account get all your settings correctly then if you're being lazy then come over on the Left where it says Auto D s finder now full disclosure here this part is not free you do have to pay a little bit extra to be able to use the auto d s finder but let me show you how it works am i and why if you're lazy you might want to take advantage of this so if I'm gonna choose on the source site here Aliexpress China - eBay US and what this Auto D s finder does is it's going to find items that are already selling well on eBay that you can source from Aliexpress and you can break it down like let's say okay I won an item that sold at least three times in the past month or at least five eight times in the past month now obviously this one is the most valuable eight times in the past month because if it's done that then you know that that's a really popular item and chances are if you list it up for sale you're going to make some awesome sales on it as well but of course this one cost a little bit more money for that reason now I'm gonna choose let's choose a couple from the three and let's do maybe three products and we'll choose two that's sold at least five times and the eight times I'll choose one and that will cost me a total of eleven credits now I'll click upload it well. when now it's going to take me to another screen where I can choose exactly what I want these items to be priced at so you can put your break-even here and then you could put in an additional profit percentage so the break-even percentage how much you have to mark it up in price just to break even so if you sold it at just the break-even you wouldn't make any money but you wouldn't lose any money but of course you want to make a profit here so we'll put in an additional profit here we'll choose our return our template for the listings the quantity so how much of the item you want listed on eBay I'll do one each and I'll have our handling time because this is from Aliexpress which is coming from China I'll choose a longer shipping time a little bit longer handling time and a 30-day return policy if you want to add any tags you can so on this tag I'm going to do finder that way I know I uploaded these using the Autodesk finder and we'll choose here that is coming from China because you want to be fully accurate here you want them to actually know the buyers that is coming from China that's it and I'll click Save products scheduled products and once it's done loading has a few

items to go through so it's gonna do that and now what it's doing is actually just going to list those items into my store for me so I don't even have to look at them I don't have to review anything it will automatically find those items and upload them to ebay for me and let's kind of take a look at what those items are so I can actually see these products right here and it's still working right now but it's pulled in three of them so first one here let's take a look at that one and the way you can kind of look at it is on the left click on this edit button and you see that it found this wallet that's doing really well on eBay and I think a reason this one is probably doing so well is because there's so many variations so there's a lot for people to choose from so what Otto das is doing is pulling in each of the variations for listing you know this is a listing on Aliexpress for one wallet but there's different choices you can get a gray one a brown one a black one this metal box one it also pulls in the item specifics which is really important for eBay and the photos and the description I'm going a little bit beyond what you need to do you do not need to click through and look at this like I am I'm just doing that for this video so you guys can kind of get an idea of what it is that Auto D s is actually doing in the background what I'm going to do is copy down this title and actually search for it so we can see where they got this from so this looks like it on Aliexpress yeah so this is it right here and you can see right here on Aliexpress its sold nine hundred and eighty seven times so this is definitely a popular product on Aliexpress and it's gonna price it so for instance this one is pricing it at $17. 60 and you can buy it for twelve dollars and 46 cents so there's a markup there enough for you to make a profit now if you come back to Auto ds2 the items that is uploading I'll show you one other thing because remember I mentioned before that there are drawbacks to doing things that are fully automated and this is one the drawbacks right here this item right here as we see is Christmas bracelet Saul's Christmas stuff and right now it's January 15th so this item definitely sold a lot within the past thirty days because this was selling right before Christmas but now it's after Christmas so it's very unlikely that this is going to continue to sell well now that it's January 15th when I'm recording this video so this is not one that I would want listed in my store but that's one of the drawbacks of doing something like automation like I said before you're not gonna have as much oversight into what items are actually being listed up no the kind of benefit there is that you kind of make up for that in bulk by actually getting more items into the store that are winners like the wallet that I showed you or what's this one is some sort of shirt that's doing really well and this one would sell all year long as well that's the Auto TS finder and now it's listed those items into our store for us so there's one final piece to this and that's what you do after you actually receive and order on eBay and

again we're doing the lazy method here so if I come over on the Left where it says monitors and click on that so this is where you set up Auto ordering so at the top you want to click on orders processor and right here in the middle of the page where it says add purchase account go ahead and click on that and choose on the drop down where it says supplier do this part first choose Aliexpress is free for Autodesk to do auto ordering and you want to make sure where it says account email this is the email that you use for your Aliexpress account so put that here and the password on your account you'll enter that here and then you'll put a name here to label this account and click Save add account and then what you want to do is make sure at the top that the monitor is turned on so right now mine is on it says monitor is working just make sure yours is turned on if it's not on there'll be a button here that allows you to do that now once you have that set up then whenever you get an order it's going to come over here in your order section it's going to be right here and there's going to be a button that you can press that will automatically send the information to Aliexpress and fulfill that order for you just by clicking that one button so you do have to come in here and actually click the button for it to work but it does the rest of the work for you so

that's the lazy way to do drop shipping onto eBay or using the auto DES finder to actually find the items and the auto ordering to help you quickly fulfill the orders as well now that's again not my preferred way of doing it although I think it does obviously work so if you want to learn how I actually do product research myself to actually find the best products to sell on ebay underneath this video in the description I'll have a link to a free training that I put together that shows you exactly how I find the best products to sell on ebay so go ahead and click on that link and check out that free training if you're interested otherwise guys if you got any value I this video I would appreciate if you smash the like button down below and subscribe to the channel for more content like this about ebay and amazon and drop shipping thanks so much for watching leave a comment down below if you have a suggestion for a future video and I'll see you in the next video bye for now
