You are correct sir, and this isn’t what RadioGuy is doing anyway as he doesn’t get items shipped direct

“Dropshipping is a method of trading whereby you, the retailer, do not keep products in stock. Instead you partner with a wholesaler who is holding stock, you transfer customer orders and delivery details to them and they ship the goods directly to the customer. Most retailers make their profit on the difference between the wholesale and retail price”
