Can You Dropship Apple Products [2023]

One of the biggest problems that you might find is that there is someone on a site like Amazon or AliExpress that is saying they’re selling Apple products but are selling cheap copies of the product. You can sometimes tell the difference because the cheap copy will have a slight difference in the name like the ‘e’ will be replaced by one with an accent on it.

Cheap duplicates can ruin your online reputation and this can be very harmful if you’re looking to earn in the long term. You might have to give refunds, which would not be forthcoming from the merchant as it is likely that they know.

Another problem is that Apple might have a problem with you selling. They need to authorize the merchant to sell their products as a reseller. If you don’t have the right authorization, Apple can ask you to stop selling the product and possibly charge you for selling the product without right.

Though this isn’t to say that all merchants are selling out of license agreements. There are some available, but these are harder to find.

Another issue is stock. Apple is known for limiting product runs to ensure scarcity, it is one of the ways that they can push up the prices of their products. However, this can be a curse if you’re selling via dropshipping because you can quickly run out of stock because you’re relying on stock from someone else.

If they’ve got several dropshippers or selling it on their own website, then you can find yourself selling out very quickly and the chance for revenues are down.
