    Here is my 2¢ after having read about 7 books on copywriting, and hand written god only knows how many ads. I don't think the challenge can be done in 30 days...unless you speed read. Especially if you go out your way to find extra ads to copy by hand, like Gary recommends. It seems like such...

    Thanks for taking the time to do this thread! I am also from the UK and have been purchasing some products from dhgate and alibaba. I am getting hit with a 2.75% foreign currency fee for all my purchases though. I'm with RBS. Paypal also seems to have foreign exchange fees involved although...

    My items are also small, light and non-fragile. I have been using Mail Lite D/1 envelopes that I had lying around the house. I think these are like the kraft ones and have only one layer of bubble wrap on the inside.

    Am I likely to get a cheaper price if I ask for a product without packaging? I believe this is called OEM? The product I am trying to get comes in a colourful cardboard box but it is too big for me to ship anyway. I have been taking the product out and putting it in a padded envelope.

    The item that I thought was faulty turned out to be fine, I just didn't know how to put it together ;) The sample of 10 pieces sold on ebay in a week! I sold at a loss since I paid a high price for the sample. I was told a sample fee would be refunded if I order in future. I want to order...

    I'm looking through completed listings on ebay to see how well items are selling. However, the number sold does not always match the sales that are listed. Does this number included sales from the previous times the item has been listed? For example, this says 14 have been sold...

    Yeh, with Host Gator the 50% off applies to however long you pay for so that could be 12 months. So it might be a bit cheaper, but by the sounds of it the service is worth the extra cost for Beyond Hosting.

    Has anybody used Host Gator VPS for Prosper202? They are currently 50% off. I have been advised by Host Gator sales that I would need the Snappy 2000 deal for Prosper202 . Anyway, if I ordered for 12 months it would work out a lot cheaper than Beyond Hosting and has more than double the...

    Yeh I'm going to get a second opinion on it then contact the supplier. There aren't really any instructions, just photos of a slightly different product on the box! lol

    I'm taking my time with it in case I've missed something but I don't think I have. There is a clip to hold both parts of the item together but the male end is the wrong size. I'm thinking I probably could glue it but it's a bit disappointing since it's meant to just clip together...and I don't...

    This might be a daft question, but when you are making an order on alibaba, what do you put in the "airport" option? I'm guessing it's the airport at the supplier end, not the one at my end.

    I have received a quote from another supplier (on Alibaba) who has asked to me "complete the attached PI". I'm not sure what this means...there are no file attachments.
