Yes Amazon as well. I would suggest not dabbling in what you don't
understand. Like those $1.99 shelf brackets that are more expensive
than the Prime brackets once you add in the shipping.

I'd suggest not dabbling in what you don't understand.

Since neither of you seem to have any experience with
online retailing, perhaps you're both tilting at windmills.

I suspect neither has any experience in retailing PERIOD.

And you would be wrong. I ran an automotive center at 21 and chose to
retired at 40. I knew retail pretty well.
Then you should know better than most what is involved - I spent
the first half of my working life in the automotive repair business -
not a tire and muffler shop but real automotive service - half of it
in dealerships. (from age 15 to 37) - then later a few years working
in the window business and computer business, supporting business
management systems etc.

17-23, tire stores. Manager at 21. 23-28, manager of the parts
department for a large Olds dealership.
28-30, Service Sales Manager for same Olds dealership. 30-33, parts
director for Olds and Isuzu dealership.
33-40 the GM for an AC/Delco 3M wholesale distributor. 40 retired my real
jobs. Last 22 years custom design and build furniture, a hobby that has
evolved into a small business.. 2016 was a banner year.
