To request a supplier's pricing, you can send a message and invite them to connect with you on Shopify Collective. A supplier receives your invitation by email, and they can accept your invitation, or continue the conversation by email. Some suppliers might respond faster than others.
After a supplier accepts your invitation, you receive an email confirming that you're connected. The supplier should then share their price list with you. Learn more about inviting suppliers to connect on Shopify Collective.
