Wholesale Shipping Supplies open Door to Savings for eBay Store Owners

ST. LOUIS, MO – 430,000 people in the United States make all or some of their living on eBay. That includes those who roam from auction to consignment shop looking for products to sell, as well as those who operate fully functioning eBay stores to sell their customers’ goods online.

Being a successful seller on eBay is not as easy as it seems on the surface. Countless people open eBay seller accounts each day, with some sellers looking to make some extra cash and some looking to strike it rich. But users soon find out there’s more to it than opening an account and selling.

Cost management is among the most overlooked elements that contribute to a successful eBay store. Part of effective cost control is keeping shipping expenses down by buying wholesale shipping supplies.

“Most avid users started as occasional posters, so their shipping needs could probably be affordably met by visiting a local retailer or office supply store,” said Nu-Era marketing director Chris Weis. “But as they become regular users and open eBay stores, shipping costs become a real factor for eBay sellers.”

Nu-Era specializes in providing fixtures and wholesale supplies for retailers and individuals nationwide. As the popularity of eBay continues to grow, Nu-Era is serving the market of eBay sellers with wholesale shipping supplies and other fixtures to help them manage their business more effectively.

According to Weis, many eBay users simply get in the habit of buying from their local office supply store or retail store. For many, making the switch to wholesale shipping supplies could amount to hundreds to thousands of dollars of savings per year.

“The savings even goes beyond the financial realm,” Weis said. “By buying wholesale shipping supplies online, eBay store owners are able to purchase in bulk, and save the time of rushing out to pick up an extra roll of tape or a bag of packing peanuts,” Weis said.
