Logon to our website, by using the link below, click on the WHOLESALE LOGIN and then REGISTER. Once you register you will receive a password, it will not work until we authorize it. Depending on the day and time that could take up to 24 hours but it rarely takes that long. http://www.greyeagletrader.com .
Please be sure your Spam Blocker will allow emails from webmaster@greyeagletrader.com and sales@greyeagletrader.com . Otherwise you may not receive your password and invoices when you place an order.
2 - SELECT ITEMS YOU WANT TO SELL
Click on WHOLESALE LOGIN , enter your email address and password to logon to our wholesale website. When you are logged in the prices will have (Wholesale) after them. You are now ready to select the items you want to sell. The number of items you start with is totally up to you. We recommend you try at least 5 to 10 different items to start with. The more items you list the greater your potential profit you will be.
3 - LIST YOUR AUCTIONS AND RECEIVE PAYMENT FROM BUYER
Once you have selected the items you wish to sell you are ready to list them on an online auction or anywhere else you want to sell. As a Grey Eagle Trader dealer you may use the descriptions and photos from our website to sell products you purchase from us. Please be aware that auction services have some restrictions on what you can and can’t sell. It is your responsibility to conform to these restrictions.
4 - PAYMENT
To avoid delays all payments should be made to us through paypal or by credit card. You can send us a money order or certified check but the time it takes to reach us could upset your buyer unless you warn them of the delay in advance. We will not ship an item until we receive your cleared payment. We hold shipment 10 days for checks.
DROP SHIP FEE MUST BE ADDED TO EACH DROP SHIP ORDER
We do charge a handling fee of $1.00 per order to be drop-shipped in the USA and $2.00 per order outside the USA. This fee is necessary to help us offset the cost of shipping small orders. The drop ship fees are added just like adding another item to your shopping cart.
There is a SEARCH window in the upper left of the website. In that search window type DROP then click GO (at the end of the search window).
This will bring up the 2 Drop Ship options $1.00 for USA and $2.00 for outside the USA.
Click on the one that is correct for your order and add one to the shopping cart by clicking Add to Cart at the bottom right.
5 - ACCEPTABLE METHODS FOR ORDERING ITEMS FROM US TO BE DROP-SHIPPED
A-Place the order on our website and list your customer’s information under “SHIP TO”. Our website will calculate the shipping cost for shipments in the USA. If it is outside the USA we will have to calculate the shipping after you process the order. The Drop Ship Fee is not included or automatically added you must add the Drop Ship Fee, see 4- above for instructions on how to add the fee.
B-Email us your order complete with shipping address, wholesale prices, item numbers and descriptions. We MUST have a phone number for all orders shipped outside the USA. Make payment by any method we accept and your items will be shipped as soon as we receive your cleared payment. If we have your credit card info on file and your permission we can debit your card and ship your items without delay. We do not recommend this method because we will not have a permanent electronic record of your order and you will not automatically receive tracking and shipping information.
6 - SHIPPING DAMAGE
We are not responsible for shipping damage: Your customer should inspect the PACKAGE and MERCHANDISE carefully for any possible damage in transit. Should any damage be found for UPS shipment your customer must contact UPS within 5 business days at 800-742-5877 to file a claim. You will be given instructions on how to proceed with a claim. DO NOT return the package to Grey Eagle Trader, as this may void your claim.
You, not your customer, should contact us about the damage claim. As soon as UPS agrees to pay for the damage we will either replace the damaged items or issue a refund to you.
7 - RETURNS
We accept returns only if they are returned to us within ten (10) days after they are received and they must be in the same condition and same packaging they were received in. Items returned after 10 days are subject to a restocking fee. We do not refund or pay return shipping unless we shipped the wrong item or the item is defective. See our RETURN POLICY click on SHIPPING in top menu.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Grey Eagle Trader Drop-Ship Program
Am I required to have a business License to purchase Wholesale from Grey Eagle Trader?
NO, we do not require a business license or a Federal Tax ID number to purchase products from Grey Eagle Trader. However, we do recommend you check with any and all local and state offices if you feel you may need to acquire a business license or Sales Tax ID number. All states and municipalities work independently and have their own regulations to follow. We cannot guide you in this area. A great place to start may be your local government. Most states have a Small Business Administration that can be very helpful. If you are in South Carolina we will have to charge you sales tax if you do not have a retail license. Back to Top

Do I have to charge sales tax?
Unfortunately, this question would also have to be addressed by the government of the state which you reside in. We do have to charge a 6% Sales Tax on all shipments to all residents of South Carolina that do not have a retail license. As far as an individual who is selling to buyers on auctions or websites, this may or may not be the case. The WEB is a great resource for specific information about this subject. In most states you can register and purchase a license on line! Back to Top
