I was talking on the phone with Michael from Bintel a few months ago (very helpful I must comment). He mentioned the challenge of guessing the right qty of stock to order for each shipment. Things like a group buy would assist any retailer in getting "the container filled", which helps justify a shipment. Basically win/win.

I'd be interested to see how this develops - Count me in

Sadly Michael no longer works there, big loss..though Don Whiteman is still there..a mine of information and skills.
