If a business can not triple profit on its merchandise it most likely wont stay in business. I opened a business retail clothing . A wholesale shirt, cheapest I could find $5 plus shipping from hongkong which was usually more then the merchadise total. I found a way to get things really cheap but took alot more work, I still wonder with gas prices etc if I was doing any better. Its good to find a deal but you have to understand that small shops cant buy a large enough amount to sell it for a dollar more then wholesale. Its rough out there...Pet edge isnt doing its wholesale customers any favors by selling to the public, but maybe thats also what keeps them a float. I gave the business I started to my brother & it does well but its a headache. Thank god I figured out how to get our merchandise below wholesale & sell namebrands cheaper or comparitive to walmart cost, you know every stores favorite thing to hear..... "Well I can get that at walmart for $.......LOL I had to start going to walmart and looking at their stuff & prices before I could make a decision to buy anything-damn walmart, lol. But I love the deals & need to save money so i shop there & petedge & ebay , but I never tell a store owner they are to high . |
