I have a friend that wants a simple website where she can sell chocolate suckers. She has quite a few customers already and wants a place that they can order they own product(s). Can someone please give me the a couple of ideas (and point me to how-to's) as to best set it up. Originally we thought a site that people can goto that shows retail prices and they can order product, but when they login (login and password) it could show different pricing. Is this a good way of doing wholesale/retail? If it helps all products would be the same for both retail/wholesale.
Can anyone give me some guidance on this as I am new to drupal but have done a couple of oscommerce sites in the past? How-to's, wiki's anything to get a sample site setup for her to see would be a great start. Thanks.

My firm has been a buyer at wholesale or sale-for-resale. As a result, I anticipate that we, as a buyer, would first get a credit check and reseller account established and then be sent either literature with prices at wholesale or be given access to the wholesale "door" of a retail web site.
So, yes, your approach, imho, works. However, I would set it up so that both retail and wholesale have log-in's and roles differentiate between the two groups.
Not sure what you want for paragraph 2. What exactly are you wanting from us?

Ubercart can do some pretty great things so start looking into documentation on that http://www.ubercart.org I'm sure someone either on that site or that group will have your answer as Ubercart seemingly can do anything.
