Wait a minute, you said vendors. That is just slightly different.
That to me sounds like a place called Big Lots. They use vendors and store buy outs.
So you buy from people that buy from the manufacturer.
I think we have just spent half the day using 2 different groups of sellers.
To me, you would not be a reseller because the product is distributed to you and then you sell to the public.

That is funny. Resellers have another name in my world called. VAR
Value Added Reseller.
For example complex computing systems can be sold but not really used effectively until a VAR integrates it into production use.

I do believe ebay is considered a shop of shops. So a manufacturer cannot guarantee whether the seller is legitimate.

Ebay provides a venue for "resellers to sell" a virtual digital marketplace NOT a brick and mortar spot. For lack of a concrete example think of a open farmers market or craft fair. Sure there will be manufactures/ growers present but also VAR -- resellers

Glad your finger is better. Heat above 105 F is bad for human flesh. The de-naturation process is usually non-reversable.

lol. Most electronic circuit boards are waterproof. A part of the manufacturing process for circuit boards that have been hand soldered of electronic parts.. is to put it into a machine that is like a big dishwasher. The heat cycle is above 100 but below the thermal point that would weaken the solder joints of the electronic components. The e-ink screen and LCD screens usually don't like water nor high temperature.
EVERY epub, mobi file must have that option.. flexibility of reading material sources. I read many a novel on my now ancient Palm Pilot.
