Default New business - some advice needed.

I am in the process of starting up a new business venture. Basically its an online computer store but with a difference. Now as far as im aware what I am doing has not been done before, infact im almost positive so I dont want to give too much information away on it yet.

Basically though I need to find some suppliers for the products that will be sold on the site. I already have spoken to one supplier, but I would like to get lots of different options so I can work out what is best for me and my potential customers.

Ive heard about these dropshipping companies where you have to pay to sign up with them and then you sell their products and they ship them out. Im not really looking at something like this, well not where I have to pay money just to sign up to their service. To me it seems that they will make money out of the purchases to so why should they charge to set up business to you. Are they all like this?

Im happy to either use a supplier that I pay and they send the goods out or I pay then they get send to me and I send them out. Any help or advice you can give me would be great. Im not exactly new to running a business as I already run a webhosting business and web design but this is my first time going into this field.

Look forward to receiving any feedback you give me.
