Thanks @rulesforrebels! I watch your side hustle vids. Some cool ideas. See my bud has websites that he has sold (Drop Shipping) based business. But right now he has no control over his business because he is at the mercy of his suppliers as you stated above. The same as anyone relying on eBay, Amazon, or other 3rd party sites to sell on.
You do not own the real estate, so you have to play their game,,,,,,,yet you do have supply.
It was eating me up man! Thanks for chiming in! You made perfect sense. :)
