    Yeah I get it, small seller morals

    There is a question for anyone at what point do those morals disintegrate, as I know the big companies tend not to have them?

    As soon as you have employees/employers, I suspect. The boss doesn't have to actually do the morally dubious thing, and the employee doesn't have to accept responsibility!

    Morals go out the window whenever the company has shareholders who see the morals affecting the profits.

    Mind you. If it were me, I'd be selling the addresses at £50 for 1000

    But is it morally dubious to tell your customers that you have a new store, where they are likely able to buy the same item cheaper, or is it wrong to leave them in the dark, and let them find out on their own?

    I don't know I think from a buyers perspective, if a seller did not let me know that I had other options. Then I found the seller selling the same items I had just paid for cheaper, then I would be a little upset.

    I mean you have a store in the UK where the world travels to buy from you but then you open a store in another country, where the sellers do not have to pay the rip off taxes, and prices can be lowered, which I assume is the same as moving from ebad to here. Then would you tell them they had another option or let them continue to pay the extra fees, as is being suggested?

    I don't really know why there is such an issue made re: sellers v buyers, sellers are potential customers too.

    I'm a buyeller, too, and I suspect a lot of other sellers are as well.

    Best wishes for many sales to all,
