Everything you've said so far jives with what I understand. This looks
exactly like what my client wants to do. They want to put up a store, sell
items, and have them shipped from the distributer. They want me to
RECOMMEND a drop-shipper. I've found people selling lists of drop-shippers.
I've also found individual drop-shippers that offer "membership" for a
start-up plus a monthly cost.
Any idea how I discern between a reputable drop-shipper and one that will
just cause my client problems?
