How stable is this supply base?
Three separate questions, answered in order: is the product fresh, is the market busy, and can the sellers be trusted.
Is there much new product?
Castor Oil Flakes had 3 new listings in the last 30 days, up from 2 the month before. Only a handful of new listings appear each month, so the catalog changes slowly and older offers remain in place. That means buyers see a consistent set of offers, with little shift in pricing or availability over time. Check the listing date when comparing offers to confirm which one is more recent.
Is the market busy?
1 of the 35 suppliers joined in the last 12 months, so the pool is mostly made up of long-standing sellers. Buyers interact with suppliers who have a history of consistent listings, which makes it easier to assess reliability over time. The small number of new entries limits the range of options available for a first order. Review each supplier's listing history before reaching out.
