Best ecommerce fulfillment service?
I am in the process of setting up an e commerce site to distribute high quality iPad/Tablet cases online at an affordable price and am trying to decide on which 3PL/E commerce fulfillment provider to use.
I am considering using shipwire.com for their superior service but many have suggested it is best used if the product has a high profit margin or is an expensive product. Per item, my profit margin will not be that high and the price of shipwire.com will cut into that margin.
Any recommendations on a reliable fulfillment provider?
thanks in advance

Hi Ronan, As a fulfilment provider, I am obviously likely to recommend myself but I would prefer it if you heard it from my clients (details upon request). ShipWire are very good at what they do but are extremely expensive. Fulfilment by Amazon (FBA) is a good option if you use their marketplace as you benefit from enhanced listings. Some fulfilment houses, like ourselves, are able to work alongside FBA so that you do not have to worry about labelling your items for dispatch to Amazon and can also benefit from cheaper multi-channel rates (for which Amazon are expensive). If you send me a personal message with a few further details about expected run-rates, average weights, storage space required etc. I'd be happy to give you a competitive quote. Kind regards, James (The Fulfilment Company, james@fulfil.co)

Stay away from shipwire - they couldn't account for our deposit and ensured us that it was burried in charges - "trust us". When we inquired about detailed accounting to explain how the deposit was applied to shipments they stated that we were too small a customer to be bothered with - even though they market themselves as a small business solution.
In reading reviews of shipwire I can only assume that they are trolling forums themselves and actively flooding serach engines to cover up negatives.
Stay away from the ship wire scam!
