Hello,

I'm looking for a Collectible Trading Cards Drop Shipper in the UK.

If someone has any suggestions on where I can find said drop shipper it'd be much appreciated.

Thanks,
-Dillon.

Hi Dillon,

Welcome to Wholesale Forum

There are few drop shippers of trading cards in the UK, therefore you are probably best contacting UK trade suppliers and publishers of trading cards to ask them if they are willing to work with you on a drop shipping basis. Also consider buying stock from wholesale trading card suppliers and have it shipped to a fulfillment company for storage and order fulfillment. A fulfillment company can store, pick and pack individual orders on your behalf, without you having to ever see the stock. You can expect a cost per order of around 70p, which is very good deal considering you can then focus on sourcing and marketing.

You could contact Kanomi for example, they are the company behind the popular Japanese manga Yu Gi Oh trading cards. Have a look at the contact details for their UK office:

Another large licensed playing card manufacturer in the EU is Cartamundi.com | Cartamundi a heart for Cards
