Long before dropshipping became a buzzword, Lior Pozin was a high school student trying to make some extra cash. One day, while browsing a wholesale supplier’s website, he noticed something surprising—the same cell phone was listed on eBay for a higher price, using identical descriptions and images.
Curious, he listed the phone on eBay himself. Within hours, someone bought it. Lior then arranged for the wholesale supplier to ship the phone directly to the buyer—his first dropshipping sale.
What started as a side hustle quickly turned into a full-time business.
