Do I understand your business correctly?
You don't have an inventory, when I buy an item from you, you take my money and then go find the item and order it from some other site and ship it to me?
If I am not understanding it correctly, please explain it to me. (Small words please)

So, is this dropshipping?

This model is relatively common in the gun industry. There are several large distributors that offer dropship programs to their dealers. If you go to a site and see where an item's stock status is listed with several different warehouses ("In stock at Warehouse A, Out of Stock at Warehouse B", etc), that's what's going on.
I know there is generally some distrust of drops shipping because of companies like Optics Planet, but done carefully and appropriately, it works pretty well.

He’s stated as such, while maybe not the preferred way to order for most folks, you know what you’re getting.
His business is obviously in its infancy, can we not do this negative insinuation posting when nothing negative has been done.
Para has already asked the man the questions needed, nothing else is gonna make us sound like a welcoming community.

How is my question "negative insinuation" anything? But, thanks goes to Brad for answering.

sc2aguns, Keith, welcome. This forum is a great community. I know running a new business takes most of your time, but try to spend some time here on the forum in other sections than the Classifieds Section. Good luck.

The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

Correct - our business is a drop-shipping business; and I too was curious how it worked until I placed a couple of test orders from distributors ranging from NC to CA. All of the orders arrived within 1-5 days which I think is acceptable. Thoughts?

Ok Welcome!
How are issues handled if a problem occurs with the product when received? Say something is damaged or missing when received.
Say the item has a warranty do you offer a money back for a short period after purchase or are all warranties handled by the manufacture according to their policy?
Thanks for your time and good luck with your venture.

You read my mind! Since I have many distributors tied to the store (all with slightly different return policies potentially), I'll work on a return policy that covers the similarities and how we will handle the exceptions (if any).
On a side note, I would like to thank this forum for visiting my site. I am seeing a lot of new traffic in the last 24 hours. Take that Google algos! Much appreciated!
