# Seller

Whoever you actually buy from. Vessim sells nothing and holds no stock. Every link goes to the seller, who ships the product and handles returns. As of October 23, 2026, the Vessim index holds 387 listings from sellers, for 376 products.

## Also called

store, merchant

## Why it matters at Vessim

Every price on the site belongs to a seller, never to Vessim. A product page lists every seller of the same photograph, cheapest first, with what each one charges and where each ships from.
