I don't see anything proprietary. One of your bigger competitors can do this exact same thing and squash you like the cockroach you are. Because of this, I'm out.

I can't add any value here as I know nothing about car parts. Hell, I don't even own a car. I only drive trucks. For that reason, I'm out.

Hey All,

I am not sure if this is being posted in the right place, and if I’m not… please move it to the right place. I am selling my ecommerce site that is selling a dropshipped product. In the last 12 months it has made a bit over $50,000k in PROFIT. So far in this month of October 2012 it has made $2,780.11.

In the last 3 months the average monthly profit has been $6,410. If you are possibly interested in purchasing the site, please reply in this thread or send me a PM, and I will respond with details. Thanks.

Oh, wow! I will take it!

Having consulted with my colleagues and based on the information gathered from the Nigerian Chambers Of Commerce And Industry, I have the privilege to request your assistance to transfer the sum of $47,500,000.00 (forty seven million, five hundred thousand United States dollars) into your accounts for this eCommerce website. The above sum resulted from in depth analysis of your site and your proven track record here at TMF .

We are now ready to transfer the funds for your website overseas and that is where you come in. It is important to inform you that as civil servants, we are forbidden to operate a foreign account; that is why we require your assistance.

The transfer is risk free on both sides. I am an accountant with the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC). If you find this proposal acceptable, we shall require the following documents:

(a) your banker's name, telephone, account and fax numbers.

(b) your private telephone and fax numbers —for confidentiality and easy communication.

(c) your letter-headed paper stamped and signed.

Alternatively we will furnish you with the text of what to type into your letter-headed paper, along with a breakdown explaining, comprehensively what we require of you. The business will take us thirty (30) working days to accomplish.

Please reply urgently. We look forward to working with you!

Best regards

Howgul Abul Arhu :coolgleamA:

Hey Vigilante, maybe we can go partners on this deal. I'd love a piece of this. I'm a little short of the 50k, but I'm sure we can figure something out.

I haven't read the entire thread but the first post is definitely a digital turn off.
You probably missed the part where this thread is a few months shy of 4 years old.

Honestly MJ, would you consider selling the forum? I am not asking in an effort to buy it, but I am just wondering... do you have a number?(keep in mind I am neither asking what your number is).

everything is for sale

SHIT. Just realized this is how I wasted my 1,500th post.

Wade - what if the 3 of us partner up. Just imagine what we can do as a team. I'll bet we take this site from 50k to 150k in less than 6 months. I have a plan, but would need the experience of you and vigilante for it to be a success.

I haven't posted until now and have not sent a PM but I've been doing some due diligence here. First things first, I'd like to verify you are indeed the owner. Could you provide proof for this? Also, would you be willing to upload a simple html file or add a simple comment line of code into one of the pages?

Also, instead of screenshots, could you please do a live screen recording of you logging in to your merchant account and showing your transaction statistics? You can use software like camtasia to do this and it will allow you to blur out sensitive details like login, etc. I ask this because as you know screenshots can be easily faked. I'm certainly not accusing you of that but it is part of my due diligence process.

I have no problem providing proof that I am the owner, feel free to visit the following link and let me know if that's enough proof for you: http://www.motorfiend.com/thefastlaneforum-proof.txt .

I do not have any video editing software that will allow me to blur out sensitive details, but I will gladly make a video for anyone making a serious offer and that shows interest in the website using a camera. I have done it in the past by simply using my hand or a piece of paper to hide any info I need to keep private.

It is quite obvious that the world has too many people out there looking to scam others, so protecting ourselves these days is a must. If you need anything else, please feel free to let me know. Thanks for your questions and interest shown in the website.

Worthofweb is beyond inaccurate

Nooooo!!! According to WorthofWeb TheFastlaneForum.com is worth $1,200,000. Anyone want it for that price? I'll sell it at 50% discount; a steal!

Im surprised no-one here have asked this as yet ... But WHY are you selling this biz. Before I buy into anything, I usually like to know this information out of due diligence.

Im interested in making an offer by the way. Still doing some research on the biz as we speak.

According to worthofweb.com, motorfiend.com worths about $75K.

Good job OP! I wish my store can be as successful as yours.

That website can be a good avenue to get an idea of the value a website has, but it is not always accurate.

I am sure that your store can be much more successful that MotorFiend ever has. I do not view myself as an expert or guru at how to make e-commerce stores succeed, but I have had a handful of them that have been the same size as MF or bigger. If you ever have questions, or would like me to look at your store to possibly share with you some similarities or differences that I have noticed in relation to the success I've had... I'd love to do that for you... just PM me.


Word of advice, Worthofweb is beyond inaccurate

That is EXCELLENT advice!! Worthofweb.com is often times not accurate. For example it says MotorFiend.com makes $3,210 net profit per month... which it has actually averaged $4166 net profit in the last 12 months and averaged more than $6,500 net profit in the last 3 months... and it seems to keep going up each month. But, I guess that's why we can appreciate community forums like this one where community members like Mike39 can keep us all grounded and informed. Thanks for the reminder Mike39... seriously!
