How to think about your retail price
Every Dropship Hub listing shows a suggested retail price (MSRP). You are free to price above or below it. Pricing at MSRP keeps you consistent with pet stores selling the same product; pricing below MSRP buys volume but leaves you no room for paid ads.
As a rule of thumb, keep at least 30% gross margin after shipping so that ad spend and returns do not turn a busy month into a loss.
