Using Siri dictation here so if you can’t figure out this post live with it. Here is my observation I am a MOSS vendor and I sell my widgets wholesale too MOSS The few sales that are generated from this website is barely enough to pay the hosting fees and my banner ad each month it is negligible. The sales to MOSS are substantial I have a hard time keeping up with the orders to fill the PO‘s that they sent me. Sometimes I ship two or three sometimes more orders to either Goleta or to Petersburg, each month. Businesses like the little British Cat Company, Bug Eye Guy and maybe a few others who are resellers buy from MOSS and my little widgets are on their websites under the MOSS part number. Purely speculation here but even resellers like BASIL, if a customer requests one of my widgets they saw in the MOSS catalog Basil would order it direct from MOSS and resell it to the customer, this is a win-win for me. As far as I know Rimmer Brothers does not stock any of my items , BUT, will they stock them in the future with this merger. Does this mean that I may be busier than ever. I am curious as to what the future will hold . Currently, I have a new person Doug Gaither who I have mentioned before , is helping me and will eventually take over my business. Who knows what the future will hold , right now the sky is not falling and I see this as a win-win . As an example look at the model A Ford market or the Ford Mustang.huge huge huge , billions of dollars investors have dumped into these companies to supply the parts. They are in it to make money not to liquidated the market is too big. Thanks for listening cheers

Good luck, Joe.
And the Siri dictation lucced gud tu mee.
When I worked years ago, I had to type my own reports. Two fingers was slow going and I tried some of the voice recognition programs (now called apps). Siri looks great.
The important thing is not to get ahead, but to get along.

I know for sure.
If Rimmers Bros morphs into a fraternal twin to Moss I will stop shopping there as well.

I too hope the merger aids my wholesale to Moss.
Moss easily outnumbers my sales here but HERE is where I hone what to sell to Moss.
At peak I had 45 items in Moss' catalog, it has waned a bit in breadth but increased in volume.
It can only be a good thing for me to add Rimmer's client list to Moss and Moss UK.
