1)its about MOQs , you have to be able to order the MOQs , and be willing to take an inventory position
2)containers are sitting empty , ocean freight is now the lowest it has been in years , vs last year when it was very very high .
3)I have no problem with out of stocks , but running ads on obsolete items that have been out of Stock for months is poor website maintenance .
4)You need a forecaster and planner , you need to know MOQs and turnarounds on Pos , do for example , is the turn around on a Po 120 days , 90 days , 140 ect
