Drop Shipping and Shopify

[CliveWarton]

I'm currently in discussion with a retailer about listing their products on a site of mine. I've never done this before so feeling my way.

I've suggested that I put up a front end using shopify, take payment and then forward any orders to them for fulfillment.

Anyone doing this? Any pitfalls to watch out for or better ways to approach this?

whilst not exactly the same scenario as your route forward - there was a more general thread on drop shipping a while back - link - some of my points are highlighted in this post in that thread

i hope this helps
