Shopster Does NOT Have 700,000 Wholesale Products

Shopster is a third party drop shipping company that has no access to the products shipped. 700,000 is just an arbitrary number they pulled out of their bottom. The fact is, Shopster has no control over their suppliers inventory. Products being offered by Shopster by suppliers are Not exclusive to Shopster; therefore once an item sells out due to other companies selling the same items offered to Shopster, then the Rshops are S.O.L.

Shopster claims they drop suppliers that don't supply what they offer but is that how you want your third party drop shipper to due business? If Shopster can't arrange for a certain number of same product to be held exclusively for Shopster then the Rshop owner is taking a tremendous risk. For the amount of time and effort the Rshop owner puts in to his/her shop each day, they need to know that is Shopster's warehouse claims to have 100 of a specific product, the product will be available when a customer purchases the product.

I've received an email from Shopster 2 days after a product was sold on my rshop stating that the product had been discontinued. The very next day the product was still listed in Shopster's warehouse saying there were twelve of that item still remaining. Needless to say, the sale failed to go through and I didn't make my $1.18 profit. Shopster needs to have more control over their suppliers inventory. This sort of thing will put Shopster out of business. How can you trust a company that doesn't provide the service that you as an rshop owner are paying for?

BTW the baseball that you have featured on autographbuys.com is being sold in another store for $40 higher than you have it priced. This once again just proves that shopster's pricing isn't outrageous!
