Ship it to is not for buying anything. If I am correct, OP wants to fulfill orders as in ship them to a distribution center for them to reship it to a customer within the region?

That is exactly what a 'reship' is, except OP would send a bunch of items to X reship, it will be held and shipped on his request...?

That's what I call 'stupid'. Would you do the same thing if the unknown service were in Asia, given the above facts?

While I personally will NOT be trusting this company with my inventory unless I find some sort of evidence that they are trustworthy, I don't think Isabel is "stupid" for taking a risk. She's likely sending a small amount of product as a test to see if they're legit, then going from there.

At least AZ has a reputation earned through billions of successful transactions over decades of business.

It's also well-documented that Amazon steals any FBA inventory left in accounts that have been shut-down. I'd rather trust someone who MAY steal my inventory than someone I KNOW will.

Ghost... isn't everybody always complaining that you can ship from China cheaper than the US because the Chinese government subsidizes the cost of the mail? So what exactly, other than the possible time lag, which can be minimized by quick packaging, is the advantage to doing this?

Ok, now this just sounds bad....

Did you LOOK at the flag? Did you read the post? China is NOT in "South east" Asia. There are MANY countries in Asia that are NOT China. OP is from Malaysia, and they do NOT have cheap shipping to the states. In fact, they are a very developed nation with relatively high wages, much like Japan. All of Asia is not the same....Are the rules and shipping the same for the USA, Canada, and Mexico the same, just because we are all technically "North American"? This is just some straight up ignorant talk that's unbecoming of you.

I didn't say she was stupid, I said handing over the heart and core of their business, ... is stupid.

It was a response to the comment that employees, whom you can monitor, are analogous to an unknown fulfillment service clear across the world.

As far as AZ, the conversation wasn't about inventory left in a shut-down account, but active fulfillment. Entirely different thing.

Shipping speaks for itself.

I wouldn't be concerned about the service, if the company is legit, all you need to do is adjust handling time to their speed.

The rest of what you said just doesn't make sense for the reasons I list above.

I cant be much help but try googling. Lot of big fulfillment companies that ship orders for large retail stores, like gnc, macys etc. Amazon is not the only company.
