Amazon Stealth is becoming more difficult (although STILL QUITE DOABLE) and accounts are becoming more valuable. Putting them at risk may not be the best strategy. | Certainly agree that accounts are harder to hold on to, but when done right, we have had no problems.
Some accounts are just unlucky with awkward customers, most have no problems.
In the number of years we have been drop shipping, we have had no problems in the USA. It is in fact one of our strongest country for sales. We have found, as long as the information is displayed clearly and the customer is aware of where the item is being shipped from, then there is little problems.
If they don't see 'China' mentioned anywhere, then they do tend to kick up a big fuss. But as with everything, we learn and we improve.
