Drop shipping is a concept where the supplier or warehouse ships
on behalf of another seller. This allows organizations
that focus strictly on channel and sales development to sell products without requiring any logistics or shipping experience. It
also means that they do not have to warehouse any inventory.
Blind Shipping is a level of complexity above
drop shipping. Blind shipping makes it appear to the end customer that the product is actually coming
from the Drop Shipper. Many times this involves
Custom Packing Slips
Custom Boxes
Custom Packaging (such as packaging tape or return addressing)
Many companies avoid drop shipping due to the increased complexity of billing, shipment tracking, and invoicing.
