If you’re already a TSX Toys customer, then you might be familiar with our drop ship service program. If not, or if you’re not yet a TSX Toys customer, then this post will be helpful in giving you an idea of what goes into the process and how you can get your business started with us today.
First off, the TSX Toys Drop Ship Service is set up in a way that allows you to offer your choice of customized TSX Toys without putting hardly any capital down. This means you can put your money into other avenues in order to establish and promote your business without spending a whole lot of money on products. This is fantastic for start-up online retail sites, newly opened physical stores or stores that want to offer specialty items without having to carry them in the store physically.
How It Works:
- For Websites: For websites, all you have to do to get started is decide which products you want to list on your website in what ways (colors and components). Then, once you’ve done that, you can download images of those items from the TSX Toys website and list them in your online retail store. After that, all you have to do is set up an account with us and put a $250 deposit on your account which you can set up by contacting a TSX Toys representative via phone or email. Once that is done, you’re good to go!
- For Physical Stores: For physical stores, the process depends on how you want to promote TSX Toys in your store. If you simply want to offer specialty items to your customers without carrying them in store, you can easily print images from the TSX Toys site and showcase them in a binder or however you prefer to promote them. Once you become a member, these images will be available to you whenever you need them and will allow you to offer whichever items you like at any time. Once a customer makes a request, you can have the item shipped to your store for pickup or the customer may opt to have it shipped to their home directly which allows you to get paid the same day they make their order without ever having to see the item! This works especially well for some of our more niche fetish toys such as the Trojan Horse Dildo, Mr. Ed, or other large anal toys which customers may not want to carry out of your store, but prefer to have shipped to their home discreetly. After that, all you have to do is set up an account with us and put a $250 deposit on your account which you can set up by contacting a TSX Toys representative via phone or email. Once that is done, you’re good to go!
- A Hybrid of Drop Ship & Conventional Orders: This is simply a combination of making conventional orders in which you physically receive whatever you decide to order and also having a $250 deposit on your account for drop shipment. What this does is allows more established businesses to keep on-hand items which they now know are great sellers for them and ship them more quickly in their area or otherwise keep them in stores. Then, they can also offer specialty items or put up new items on their site without having the extra added cost and only having to pay for what they sell.
- For Everyone: Make Sure You Set Up An Account For Your Business With Us On TsxToys.com. Once approved, you will have access to all downloadable images, our best seller list, new product release updates, and other tools to help you in your business endeavors. Please contact a representative about setting up your account and putting the mandatory $250 deposit on your account to begin your drop ship service and you’re ready to start selling TSX Toys!
- What Happens When You Make A Sale: For any type of business that decides to utilize the drop ship service, once you make a sale, the amount of the sale will be subtracted from your deposit amount ($250). This happens every time you make a sale. Once your deposit amount has been depleted to nearing $0, a TSX Toys representative will contact you and ask if you’d like to replenish the $250 amount. Replenishing this amount quickly ensures you will never incur any delays in the shipment of your orders.
An Example of How We Subtract Your Sales from the Deposit Amount:
$250
-$25 (1 sale)
-$5 (shipping cost)

This drop ship service is very beneficial for those who have online businesses, though, as you can see, those with brick-and-mortar physical stores can also stand to benefit from it as well, especially if they want to offer specialty and niche fetish items or larger toys without having to physically carry them in-store.
Some of the Benefits You Get From Our Drop Ship Service Include:
- Low Capital Investment Amount of $250 Allows You More Freedom and Customization In Which Products You Choose to Offer in Your Online and Physical Store.
- More Streamlined Shipping Service for Customers because once we receive your orders, we ship them as soon as they are made so you never even have to see or handle any items. This saves you money on hiring employees to do shipping for you or having to spend time doing them yourself. We do all the work for you!
- Easy Start-Up for Your Online Store without having to spend a whole lot on products.
- Using Our Private Label Service along with the Drop Ship Service allows you to Completely and Easily Promote YOUR Brand and company name.
I hope this closer look at our drop ship service program has helped you to better understand how to get started with it, how the service works once it’s set up, and the benefits you stand to gain for your online store and/or physical brick-and-mortar store.
