[QUOTE="TooTechie, post: 1145445, member: 28388"] When you say fulfillment warehouse it sounds like you want to use a drop shipper selling other company's stuff as your own. Usually the shipping can be arranged by the drop shipper where they may get a little better rates than you can or alternately you can use your own ups shipper account and forward the labels to the company to print out but there is a lot that can go wrong there. I used to sell online and used different drop shippers for everything from camcorders to big screen televisions. You'll find that for things under about 8 lbs USPS priority is cheaper then over UPS is cheaper. As for rates you can call a sales rep once you're established and try to negotiate a deal. Without volume you're paying standard rates. [/QUOTE]
