Quote:There's a new e-commerce player in town worth checking out — Shopster.com. After two years of development, the Calgary, Alberta-based company is open for business, offering Web retailers an easy way to get started by taking care of payments and shipping, and offering an inventory of 700,000 products from which to sell.

The hosted solution costs $29.95 a month after a one-time start-up fee of $99 and lets you set up a customized storefront, stock it from the Shopster.com "virtual warehouse" with up to 1,000 products ranging from electronics to collectibles, set your own price and begin selling.

You can add more products and get live feeds to shopping sites like Froogle for another $9.95 a month. Each month you get a check for the profits you make, which is the difference between the price you pay for items from the virtual warehouse and your selling price...

Quote:Shopster (www.shopster.com), the evolution of online retail, announced today that it has made significant upgrades to the company’s application, which allows anyone to easily set up an online storefront. The primary upgrade to the Shopster system is the introduction of “Shopster Drop Ship Services”, which easily allows Shopster store owners to market their inventory across numerous online auction sites such as eBay, Yahoo stores, Overstock and MSN Shopping. Because the more than 1,500 Shopster store owners are not reliant on physical inventory and only pay for the products that they sell, the new Drop Ship Services allows store owners to reach new consumers beyond their online domain and turn those consumers into loyalists on the individual store owner’s Shopster site...

...the new Shopster Drop Ship Services allows for ease of use in terms of automatically exporting your list of products to eBay for auctions...
