It is only a savings margin if you are handling large items or large quantities of an item to single locations.

Loading a pallet with multiple stop points you will lose your ass on.

Our tank company uses Saia and the price seems to be pretty competitive but it's a bit on the slow side if you are on a rush order basis.

 

if indeed Rick is explaining what you will be doing, it is good and bad. The good is you dont need to stock your inventory. The bad is, you better have a great discount structure and trust in the company dropshipping for you. Because you never see the item, it is hard to prove that you "sent the correct" item because in this case, you are going through a "middle man" With all the fee's, dropship fee's and credit card fee's, your margins begin to dwindle and you want to think if it is worthwhile to do so.

 

Oh :doh:

I guess if you have an edge in selling whatever you're selling, go for it. Just dont plan on starting a pricewar with anybody...
