I vaguely remember reading that the direct to individuals part was added later. But I admit I may be wrong and The Archive isn't responding so I can't check for myself.

Yes but there has been a hot of hot air along the lines of "setting up a webstore doesn't take a month".
But to look at it from another perspective. They could mean it's something related to the webstore (billing/delivery etc etc) which is causing the problem.
One example which I have seen with a friends company which seems to fit. They were a wholesale firm which decided to sell direct themselves. And set-up a website. What they diddn't take into consideration was that their billing system was quite labour intensive.
The website got launched became very popular (The retail side soon overtook the wholesale side) and their accounts team got swamped with work because selling 1 seperate unit to 1000 customers produced a lot more paperwork than selling 1000 units to 1 customer.

No arguement. I still haven't had a single reply to any of my emails.
Don't get me wrong. I am very very annoyed over this. I'm just doing my best to take a step back and see it from another angle.
