My guess is;
The cheaper retailer outlays the money, buys in reasonable qty & ships / imports by the cheapest means.
The dearer one waits until he has an order, then buys the item from the manufacturer, ships it via international courier (the most expensive way) & then recoups the extra cost from the customer & still makes the same profit. Because he's too tight to outlay the money & create A saving for the customer. This 2nd guy is only concerned with saving & making as much money as possible.
In my mind that sucks.
If that's what the retailer is doing, then why doesn't the customer buy direct from the manufacturer & cut out the additional %.
If I had to buy here I'd support #1 retailer. The 2nd retailer can go screw himself.
