Placing a PSH order & dropshipping

Place PSH orders through their website psh.eu. Log in with the username ricardo@snelparts.com and the shared password from 1Password.

When to order from PSH

We order from PSH every week, most often on Mondays. That usually lets the shipment arrive on Wednesday, or Thursday at the latest, so any backorders from that week are cleared. Because the lead time is so short (2–3 days), we keep stock as lean as possible and aim to hold roughly 14 days of stock at a time.

Composing the purchase order with an LLM (Gemini)

We use a preset prompt template for purchase orders. The PSH template has built-in dropshipping advice and is already saved in Gemini as a GEM, linked to the info@shop4trac.com account.

The GEM needs four core data files:

  1. A comprehensive list of PSH SKUs
  2. Current stock
  3. Incoming stock
  4. Recent sales data (currently set to the last 3 months)

How to generate the core data files

Comprehensive list of PSH SKUs — already made; find it in the GEM on the info@shop4trac.com account. If a new one is needed, use the supplier-specific export function (magazijn posities) in Exact.

Current stock (Picqer)

  1. Fetch data: Products > Import/Export > Export Stock
  2. Clean data: open in Excel or Sheets and remove all columns except Productcode and Vrije voorraad
  3. Rename the file: CurrentStock_[DATE]

Incoming stock (Picqer)

  1. Fetch data: Purchasing > Tools > Expected Products > Export
  2. Clean data: open in Excel or Sheets and remove all columns except Productcode and Te ontvangen
  3. Rename the file: IncomingStock_[DATE]

Sales data (Picqer)

  1. Fetch data: Reports > Warehouse Sales > set the interval to the last 3 months > Update
  2. Clean data: open in Excel or Sheets and remove all columns except Productcode and Aantal
  3. Rename the file: SalesData_[DATE]

Final step

Feed the four data files into the prompt with the instruction:

Do as you were instructed

Reviewing the LLM output

Always double-check the LLM output before placing the order:

  • Spot-check a few products and confirm the predicted purchase quantity is reasonable based on common sense.
  • Make sure there is at least 1 item in stock for each item on the list — if not, order one.
  • Note which products can be dropshipped.

Placing a normal order on PSH's website

  1. Log in with the username ricardo@snelparts.com and the password from 1Password.
  2. Use the search function and copy-paste one SKU at a time. All of our SKUs are already linked to the correct supplier product code.
  3. Choose the right quantity and add it to the cart.
  4. Repeat for each SKU on your purchase list.
  5. When the list is complete, double-check that the total quantity in your cart matches the total on your purchase list.
  6. On the next page, choose the correct delivery address: Wenckebachweg 6v3.
  7. On the same page, add your Exact reference number and confirm all details are correct. (To get this number, open an Exact purchase first so it reserves the reference.)
  8. On the shipping page, make sure you are getting free shipping (it can look confusing) and pick FedEx Priority (from the NL warehouse) or International Priority (from the PL warehouse).

Don't forget to add the purchase into Exact afterwards — see the Importing into Exact entry.

Extra step: add the estimated arrival time to the Exact purchase order; it will then also flow into Picqer.

Special cases

Out of stock — If an item is out of stock at the Dutch warehouse (our default warehouse), consider ordering it from the Polish warehouse instead. To do this, open the product page and order it from Poland. Always make sure you reach the free-shipping limit (usually somewhere around €250–350).

Low stock — Sometimes PSH stock is running low. If that is the case for high-selling items, consider ordering a few extra to avoid running out. Order for a maximum of 3 weeks.

Placing a dropshipping order

Follow the same steps as a normal order through building the cart (step 5), then:

  1. Do not choose Wenckebachweg 6v3 as the delivery address. Instead, choose Different delivery address and fill in the relevant fields.
  2. Use the check address function to confirm the address is valid. Sometimes small changes are needed — some smart thinking may be required here.
  3. Fill in the reference field with the order's reference number, e.g. #204102.
  4. Enable "do not include packing slip" (see the warning below).
  5. On the following pages, confirm shipping is a reasonable amount and match the shipping method to the customer's needs. If they paid for Express, send it with Priority and immediately email the customer that their package is on its way, including the tracking code.

Don't forget to add the purchase into Exact afterwards — see the Importing into Exact entry.

Tracking shipments

To find the tracking code for an order: Main account page > My Orders > open the order's drop-down menu > View Packing Slip.
