    My ecommerce thoughts and plans

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    That $650 would only put me into 200 to 250 units of inventory. Which to me still is a level where selling on my own via forums and other social methods is still viable. I am not sure that FBA would be viable at that low of a stock level.

    My ecommerce thoughts and plans

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    So I have seen that some on here frown on alibaba.com as a source for goods... It looks like I can get smaller quantities of what I want from aliexpress.com, so this may be a solid way to start. You know, ordering 10 to 50 pieces at a time and selling them locally to raise the capital to go full...

    My ecommerce thoughts and plans

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    So I am a new member but I have some ideas already in terms of starting some eCommerce sites. First of all, I have about 5 or 6 different product ideas for different sites. I think I have decided on my first one, it is a small clothing item that will sell in the $20 to $30 range per item. I...

    Gulfstream G650 Jet Flipping

    EXECUTION 
    Dont forget that the order time is often years... So the guy buying it was not able to use a large part of that money for the time it took from order to delivery and payment. It is entirely possible that he lost money on that deal in the grand scheme of things.

    Profit from 3d Printing?

    Well that is the thing, most of them just take a quantity of ABS plastic in pellet form. To me, to make supplying that any kind of meaningful, you would have to be step one after the manufacturer and we would probably be talking about many, many tons of material at a time. It is a solid idea...

    They were selling faster than anyone could get them in stock, to me that says they were not priced high enough!

    IT guy that is tired of being laid off

    So after spending some time reading around, I have come up with at least 3 ideas for eCommerce sites. All three are for the sale of items that are fairly competitive and have decent mark ups. So, I suppose it is time to go from idea to plan isnt it?

    One hit wonder - sometime that's all you need

    EXECUTION 
    Pokemon cards were an ever more rare subset of the toy fad though... They were collectable! I was working at Toys R Us the year they came out, we got them as employees at a 10% discount so like $3 a pack. I was able to sell the unopened packs to a guy running a kiosk at the mall (on the other...

    IT guy that is tired of being laid off

    So after being laid off or having a contract ended for the 3rd time in 2 years, I am just flat tired of the whole game. I have spent 9 of the last 18 months unemployed and it is killing me. I have a family of 6 to support and that just is not possible on unemployment. Over the past few months, I...
