Hello,
Is it allowed for me to buy an item on BL and have it shipped to my eBay customer?

Yes. Just be aware that some sellers don't like it.

Can you not just amend your stock accordingly - or place in stockroom & remove
the item once it's been sold elsewhere?

I was talking about sourcing the items from BL

That's a pretty risky gamble. What if they price here goes up? Or the seller
is out of stock? Or doesn't allow dropshipping?

Or worse ... the BL seller makes darn sure the final buyer knows what was paid
for it on BL. That (if it happened on AMZN) would cause the site operators to
claw back & refund some of the price the buyer paid.

Why not just do as most of us do and invest the money before selling the product.
NOT a fan of this practice as you may well get from my response.

That sounds like a question for the eBay terms of service...

On Bricklink, you are not allowed to sell items that you don't have, and
there's a good chance that's prohibited on eBay as well.

You won't last long on eBay doing that.
