 hello everybody yesterday we talked about six reasons why it's so important to work with expensive items when you drop ship to ebay but as I said in the previous video one of the problems when you work with expensive products is that it's very dangerous and you can be scammed by other ebay buyers so in this video we will talk about four steps that you need to do to avoid scams when you work with expensive products on ebay drop shipping business so this is the things why it's important to work with expensive products on ebay it's less fees it's much higher profits less customer support less competition lower PayPal fees and high percent to cover a product fees for over a long period of time I will not go over the things here on this video so you can just check previous video and get all this information so which types of scams can happen when you work with expensive products on ebay and why it can happen the first thing is stolen credit cards so let's say that someone went and just stole a credit card from another person and then he just added this to his ebay account and then they just ordering a lot of products a lot of expensive products from you in this case you can just identify it by this that the buyer has very very low number of feedbacks usually because they just steal a credit cards and then they are adding this to their buying accounts the second thing is hacked accounts sometimes any account with any number of feedbacks it doesn't matter if this is a new account or a very old buying account can be hacked by another person and then this person can just go and order from your expensive product to their houses in this case you can't really know if this is a scam or not a scam and you can check the feedback see that everything fine with this buyer but this is still a scammer because he just hacked the account so how we can handle both of these cases and what are the steps that we must do to stay on the safe side when we work with expensive products on ebay the first thing is the number of feedbacks usually if the buyer has less than 5 feedbacks so this will be a scam so just check the number of feedbacks if it's less than 5 feedbacks you need to communicate with the buyer and check that this is really a real person that this is not a stolen credit card as the buyer some questions as well is the others that he provided compare the others of PayPal and ebay so you will be on the safe side the second step which I usually do when I work with expensive products is never ship expensive products immediately I know that it's better on eBay always to send the products on time but what I suggest is to block the auto ordering for products which are over 400 dollars and wait one day before you ship these products because in this day the client can change his mind or he can discover that his credit card was stolen and he can see that his ebay account was hacked and in this way just giving to the client one full day to cancel the order and then you will be safe the next thing is ask the supplier for signature on the package one of the things in PayPal's policy is that products over 750 dollars if the people if the person who received the package will not sign that he received this you will not be covered this way for any order over 750 dollars of the sale price not by price the sale price you must ask the supplier to request a signature from the person who receives the package so if I work with Amazon and the product cost me for example 450 dollars which is around 750 on eBay I will ask Amazon to get a signature from the person who get the package this is super important and this way it will be covered on PayPal without it you will not have any seller protection on PayPal the next thing and I think this is one of the most important things here is to compare the addresses the address of PayPal and the address of eBay if the buyer supply your own eBay address number one but on PayPal you see something different you must communicate with the buyer and ask him what happened why the two addresses are different and tell him to cancel the order and create a new order with the same address as PayPal address this way you will be on the safe side so if you follow these four steps you can get really huge profits when you work with expensive products on eBay but you must be careful you must follow all of these steps don't run to place the order immediately just because you saw an order and because it's a huge profit I know that when you have a huge profit you want to supply the order immediately to keep the profit for you but it's better to keep it on the safe side and go over these steps this is about how to work with expensive products how to avoid scams I really suggest you to have around 20 percent of your store of expensive products this is super profitable and super important I hope that you have this video don't forget to subscribe write in the comments if you had any kind of scams and how did you avoid them so other people can learn from you also if you have any question just write it under the video see you in the next videos bye bye
