Many novices are faced with the problem of the source of goods. Where is more suitable to replenish the stock?
Faced with the problems:

2. Running online shop as a part-time job. Due to the full-time job, they have no time to go to market to select goods.
3. Only consider investing a small amount of money, just want to experience the process of selling.
Solution:
1. As for retail orders, purchase from other Chinese online shop.
2. As for wholesale orders, purchase from domestic wholesale website. Or we can also add some reliable industry information group to understand the latest information at the same time master the primary sources.
3. No stock, zero inventory, avoid invalid use of budget.

How Can Small Sellers Find High-quality Goods on the Internet?
Dunhuang foreign trade platform has college entrepreneurs and those who work part-time for foreign trade platforms. They often start from small sellers who have no supply. Here, I would like to tell these small sellers, who have no sources of goods, how to easily find profitable Blue Ocean merchandise without going to the offline wholesale market.

The platform for providing online sources is Alibaba's 1688, Alibaba Rush, Alibaba's agent, and Tmall supply and marketing platform.
First of all, Alibaba's 1688 website has rich sources: There are many goods and product categories are very rich. The profit of products is much higher than Tmall's. The disadvantage is that product image data packages need to be downloaded, and even some suppliers do not have image data packages.
Usually we use Alibaba to find the source is to search in the search box. Take wigs that overseas buyers like to buy for example, the following suppliers appear on search wigs.
Another one is Alibaba's partnership website, whose products are reasonably priced. All of these products are of good quality, and there are a lot of blue ocean products that we can't think of. This is equivalent to Taobao's Juhuasuan. The price of the product here will be lower.
I don’t recommend you to use Alibaba as agent, because there are usually 50 to 60 agents and even hundreds of distributors. Commodity prices are not very well controlled.
Secondly, find sources in Tmall supply and marketing platform.Sources from Tmall distribution platform are less than Alibaba’s goods, but it has products pictures and data packets to facilitate small sellers who are not professional art designers to operate. Tmall's distribution platform is a distributor of brand companies. The product is more secure than Alibaba.
In addition, Chinabrands is another drop shipping suppliers who are providing high quality goods to small sellers. It is a global drop shipping platform, which offers sellers to purchase merchandises individually. Moreover, it also providing wholesaling services to sellers.
Finally, I would like to remind those who find supply in Alibaba to pay attention to fraudulent suppliers, whose prominent characteristics is that they provide a lot of sources, such as seven or eight hundred kinds of goods. They have great stock pressure. Moreover, such suppliers and distributors are mostly not the first-hand suppliers and sellers. In these seven or eight hundred products, maybe there are only one hundred kinds are their own products. Others are also taken from other suppliers, and profits are reduced a lot.
