Just to add a bit of reality here, where we live it is a four hour round trip to the nearest KMART, we do have Target and Big W at a two hour trip, but if I needed the item that only KMART had for sale, and not available anywhere else, I would gladly pay a bit more to get the item delivered to me. Much cheaper than a four hour drive. Not everyone lives right near a particular store, good on the seller, at least the buyer would get a warranty. REturn the item to the seller, and they would then return it to KMART, unlike arguing with some dropshipper pretending to be local, when in fact offshore.
These sellers won't ship to you, though.
Just to be clear, these stores aren't offering any kind of additional service. They are just performing the purchase transaction on K Mart and allowing K Mart to deliver directly - it'd be like someone buying an item from me for $50, I then buy it from a seller on eBay for $25, and supply them with my buyer's address. That's why I can't condone it. It's not legally wrong, but still feels unethical to me.
When these sellers strike a buyer in a remote location, they just refund and don't supply, because K Mart's shipping charges are quite high outside metro areas.
They are not end of line or clearance stock, either. All you need to do is look at current stock of small household items (coffee tables, etc), that K Mart has, and then look for the same stuff here - you'll see what I mean.
