How to use "Fly-by-night" in context?
Fly-by-night vendors are those who operate without a fixed place of business, often working from a temporary location. The practice of fly-by-night selling is often seen as unfair to customers, as they are not able to rely on the vendor being there when they want to purchase an item. This can make it difficult for customers to get Fair Trade products, as the vendor is not certified. Fly-by-night sellers can also be dangerous, as they may not have the proper insurance to protect them if something goes wrong.
