There are factors that do not quite fit me, such as if updates are scheduled automatically, it can only be done once a day as the maximum frequency, or if you do it manually there will not be enough repetitions to totally rule out the possibility of not having a noticeable difference in price when the supplier decides to put a 99% discount as seen in cheap products.
In the event that aliexpress detects you as a dropshipper as a new user / customer of a product or with a supplier, it applies a super discount and if at that moment you coincide with updating stock / prices, this price is reflected in the product and in your store (clarifications are welcome) and will apply with the first customer only and when the purchase is ordered by the dropshipper for the first time in that product. The following purchases from the store, which still continues with the discounted price on that product, the dropshipper will no longer be a new customer because they already made a purchase of that product and then aliexpress will apply normal price unless after the first purchase of the dropshipper update again and immediately. (clarifications welcome)
But I cannot imagine how a monitoring of these cases can be sufficient and efficient when you have multiple products and by virtue of the fact that the updates are not in real time of changes made by the provider, and the automatic update is once a day as the maximum frequency. If this that I expose works like this, I do not see how in a price formula I can solve it. In other words, a product that aliexpress sold me as a new customer for only 0.21 ctvs and its normal price was 40.00+, I do not understand how to control it, because the second time I visited aliexpress it was already selling it to me at a price without discount and logically in the store it was still at 0.21 .
But I do not see that someone has that same case or comment in this forum ,,,
What am I wrong with?
