Time

You can only list, sell, pack, and ship so many orders in a day. What would you do i you all of a sudden had 100, 200, even 500 orders in a day? Do you have the time to pick, pack, label and ship all these orders?

Space

You can only store so much stuff! Can you store enough product to handle this many orders? Do you have enough storage space to store enough product to ship 100, 200, eve 500 orders in a day?

Its called Amazon Multi-Channel Fulfillment

2/18/11

One way to describe Amazon Multi-Channel Fulfillment is to compare it to dropshipping; but make no mistake, it is not dropshipping. Multi-Channel Fulfillment is using Amazons FBA service to fulfill your own orders with your own inventory for sales from other online channels (example: eBay)

2/18/11

With dropshipping, the products are not yours until you make a sale and submit the order. With FBA, the products that you are shipping are YOUR PRODUCTS. You control and you set the price.
