How to Dropship Nike Products

The biggest problem is that you’re not really able to guarantee Nike products when you start to dropship. This is because Nike is a well-known, popular brand. The company has a policy of selling its shoes wholesale to only a few, select and pre-determined suppliers. These are usually not resellers.

Therefore, being able to find a legitimate supplier of Nike products can be an issue. It is more likely that you will find a supplier who doesn’t have the products, never sends them out, and you’re out of pocket when the customer complains to you.

Another problem is that images of Nike products aren’t hard to come by. And therefore, it is easy for unscrupulous traders to use those images and then create cheaper copies of the products that don’t have the best quality or features. Customers will know the difference and so when you are selling them, you could face calls for refunds from customers.

Either option above can damage your reputation and this can cost you lots of money. Therefore, dropshipping can be challenging.

Another concern is stock. Nike has a reputation for releasing only a certain number of the product. This helps to create scarcity and therefore drives up the prices. It also means that when new Nike products enter the market, they can be sold out within hours, which makes it challenging to dropship.
