Hi,

If I'm selling on a classified site. Customer orders, and I want to order it from elsewhere and let them directly ship to my customer (suppose walmart), now my customer would know I didn't have the item and I just pass on the order to walmart, also they would see a cheaper price on the box (suppose my dropshipper can't do it as a gift). Now, there is an option for me to first order the product to my home, and then reship it to my customer, but I would need to raise the price because there would be shipping price, plus longer shipping time, plus many other work need to be done. My question is, I want to let walmart ship directly to my customer, would my customer get mad at me or would they understand this is my business model. Is this an acceptable thing to do?

Thanks.

wouldn't it be less hassle to be a walmart affiliate instead?
 
You'd be better off setting up with an actual dropshipping company, i know people that do 6-7 figures dropshipping using shopify
