Dropship Middleman Calculator:
If you use second tier or middlemen suppliers you will you are doing all of the work selling products for these companies.  They cut your profit margin, and worse, they might make it seem like they are helping you.  After selling you on a data access fee, does your dropship source have pet supplies and VCR's?  It is likely that they are getting these products from two separate supplier sources and pretending to be a real supplier.  Does your supplier use code names for several "warehouses" and each "warehouse" has a completely separate shipping policy?  Ask yourself why a supplier would have over 20 different shipping policies or different dropship fees for each "warehouse".  The reason for these coded names and different terms is that these represent the real source for the products.  By preventing you from creating an account with the real dropship supplier, your dropship source or service provider is just using you to sell products for them.  Small fees or "free data access" are not free, you are really paying them money on EVERY product.

Use this calculator to find the REAL cost of working with the wrong supplier.  When you deal with a middleman dropship supplier, you might think you are saving money, but they hide the supplier details from you and markup the product prices, shipping costs, or charge fees for accessing the information. The harder you work to sell more products, the more money is stolen from your ecommerce business.  At Inventory Source you have direct links to real suppliers and access to their wholesale prices.
