Chinavasion Achieves Top Dropshipping Honors
In response to those of you (ok, us) who believe that dropshipping from the Far East is difficult – or impossible, Chinavasion announced today that it has achieved a never-before-thought-possible milestone in the realm of international dropshipping.
The company now dropships, on average, over 80% of its wholesale electronics order – many to US eBay customers – in the same business day. The company further asserts that most dropship orders arrive to their final destination within four to five business days.
Is this the start of a truly global dropshipping retail marketplace? We’ll see, but things certainly seem headed in that direction.

Those of you interested in dropshipping electronics may be interested to note that Chinavasion does not appear to have relationships with any brand name electronics manufacturers – like Apple, Sony, Toshiba, HP, Acer, etc. – these are generic electronics products. Finding a market for unbranded electronics online could be a challenging one, but it presents an opportunity for someone with the right vision.
If you are looking to dropship brand name electronics, try DropshipDesign or Simplx – or browse through The Dropship Advisor’s list of Dropshipping Wholesalers.
“Finding a market for unbranded electronics online could be a challenging one” – it’s true that selling no-brand electronics like Chinavasion’s is harder because you have to build trust in the product quality, as well as not being able to rely on general knowledge of your product line. For these reasons Chinavasion is deeply into ensuring the stable high quality of the products, and providing ultra comprehensive product descriptions which dropship sellers can freely re-use on ebay or their own sites.
In general by dropship selling non brand electronics you have the advantage of novelty and potentially higher margins… there’s definitely less competition and more opportunity compared to being “just another” brand name reseller.
