>I am the customer. I chose the third party warehouse... This is where we are out of sync: No, you don't.
Given there are three parties in this transaction.. Seller Seller's third party whse Customer (buyer) The customer does not pick the 3P whse; the seller does. The customer typically will not even know the whse is a 3P whse, as merchandise will often be shipped with Seller's paperwork (BOL & packing list). Seller may elect to say "we can ship that from our Detroit warehouse" and that the "Detroit whse" might be a Public Whse and not a seller-owned facility/entity never enters into the conversation between the buyer and seller at all. BUT... Customer never has a say (other than regular customer service feedback) about whom Seller select selects as a 3P whse. That is 100% Seller's call to make. You're saying any customer can tell a vendor whom they should use as a janitorial service or from whom they should buy their copy machines; but it don't work like that. A 3P whse is just like any other provider of services to any business: the service user makes a free-market choice of vendors. Michael C. Mattias Tal Systems Inc.
