You raise some valid point. Unless a client's website has the VOLUME to justify steep discounts from the drop shipper, drop shipper prices (on the average) are quite close to retail rates.

Another issue to consider: customer service costs--you have to bear that. If not, the drop shipper will put that cost in their price -- yet another margin squeeze.

If anyone is looking for 24/7 call center support for your product, we can build it for you--you get an 800 number that's toll free from the US and it goes directly to us here in Asia.
Interesting, I might need one of those. I added you on ICQ
