You all don't have the sense of dropshipping I have, but Lori has hit at the heart of historical dropshipping. It started as manufacturers and wholesalers shipping larger or slower moving items that most retailers would sell occasionally, but could not justify the space or the funds to keep on hand.

So, it's always been wholesalers who dropship. It was (and still is for many) a courtesy to their established retailers. Some soon found they could also dropship for other, non-stocking, sellers. So dropshipping as you all know it in relation to the Internet is a variation of an old practice.

As for complaining about a dropship seller getting the same price as an Internet seller who may hold stock, I don't see where there is a lot to complain about. It's the real brick and mortar stores who should be complaining about both.

And get your terms right - the dropshipper is the wholesaler who dropships, not the person doing the seller.

Thank you pete
Don't get me wrong the wholesalers i use that dropship are really good.
Also i have came across some really large shops on the web that don't hold any physical stock atall as i know all the companies there using.

What is the point of this thread?

Is it a question or you just telling us you prefer wholesale to dropshipping?

If thats the case why not just put this in "general discussion" That you like wholesale better?
