What is a Light Bulk Wholesaler

The term "light bulk Wholesaler" is turning up around the internet quite often these days, and turning some ears. I would like to take a moment to explain to you just what a light bulk wholesaler really is, and how they could really help you to expand your profit margin if you sell on ebay, or at your own online store.

A light Bulk Wholesaler will sell you, you the small business owner, products in bulk (by the case or pallet), in orders of less then 500 dollars for you store in your garage, storage unit, or wherever you choose to store them. Unlike using drop shippers, and just forewarding the order on to your supplier, buying from light bulk wholesalers will require you to have to deal with shipping, handling, storage space and the usuall things that any small home based business would have to deal with.

However, if you can find the room for storage, using light bulk wholesalers can be very profitable for you, because you will make more in profits, as many times you can get products this way for a very low price. (The same prices that major retailers pay for the products.)

When you by your products in bulk quantities, the wholesale supplier can offer you these products at the very lowest (wholesale) price available, allowing you , the Small Business Owner, the chance and the ability to compete and succeed in price drivin markets (like eBay.) In fact, most major retailers do business this way.(Buying products in bulk.) The bulk wholesaler will sell you, the retailer, a few, or several cases of their product(s) at a time to fufill your ordering requirements, and ship them to you. You store these products in your home, or if you are a brick and mortar retailer, you shelve these items. You get these products at wholesale prices, and in most cases, the larger the "bulk" the lower the wholesale pricing is for the products. You then ship or sell these items to your customer and you keep the difference that you paid at wholesale, and sold at retail.

A light bulk wholesaler will:

1) Sell New, Name brand Factory-Warranted products to you, the Home Based Business owner, at Wholesale Prices.

2) Accept minimum orders under $500.

3) Provide a way for you to compete in price drivin markets like eBay.

Using light bulk wholesalers can be very profitable, if you have the storage, and dont mind dealing with shipping.
