World Wide Merchandise

World Wide Merchandise is a drop ship company for general merchandise and electronics. This is generally a good idea for people wanting to offer a wide variety of items and not have to stock or ship them from your home business. The problem with World Wide Merchandise is their pricing which for most items, the MSRP is outrageous. Some examples are a boom box that costs you $48.20 and they say the retail price would be $139.95. I checked the Walmart web site and they have a large variety for about $50 each on average.

Some things were better, like paying $3.50 for a walkman style headset with AM/FM radio, or no name sports watches for $1.50 but these things, even if marked up would require tremendous volume to make a living on. There's also plenty of tacky items like an Elvis clock and Last Supper box. World Wide Merchandise offers basically no-name items, and much of it is items that are outdated (people buy Ipods a heck of a lot more than boom boxes) or priced unrealistically (I don't know anyone who is going to mail order a 5" picture frame for $13.95 when they could get it for $5 at Walmart). The plus side to World Wide Merchandise is that you don't have to stock these things, you can order them as orders come in, but it's going to be a hard sell with the price and quality of the items I've seen.

They also sell web hosting and merchant accounts, but no prices are given so I assume it's not going to be cheap. Overall I''d pass on World Wide Merchandise as their items are not very cutting edge or desirable for todays market where high tech rules in my opinion. The main problem with World Wide Merchandise is that the items are just overpriced. You can get many items cheaper in local stores and their retail price estimates are way out of line with reality. I'd take a pass on World Wide Merchandise and find a drop shipper with more desirable merchandise at better prices that a local discount store.
