Building electronic shop... - GoFuckYourself.com

Rod · 04-02-2002, 08:34 PM

I am currently investing cash into an e-shop that will sell electronic stuff, like cellulars, laptops, computer parts, TVs, sound systems etc.

I would like to know if I should buy stuff in stock, or I should keep my investment for advertisement, and buy what I need when I get the orders...?

Anyone can give advices?

Thanks,
Steve

P.S: And no, I wont stop doiing adult stuff. I just want to try other stuff...hehe

i think to make the most money you should buy stock in bulk.

what i would suggest is making friends with other companies, and all buy in a bulk purchase, so then you get a better price for like 10 notebooks for example, then buying 1 at a time from the distributor, then you make more profit...

you need to make arrangements with wholesalers and shit

it's called drop shipping

customer orders and pays you, you order it from another company, they ship it to your customer and send you the bill.

you keep the profits and don't have to keep an inventory!

Well, I would like to actually ship the stuff myself, because I plan to make a real store in my city, as well...later.

Thanks,
Steve

The problem with electronics is they get outdated fast. So I'd also say if you are not opening a store NOW then use a drop shipper until you can afford to buy all your inventory and open the store.

I had a small home based jewely/gift/lingerie business before I started in the adult stuff and I only bought stuff when I needed it for parties, fairs, conventions etc. and I still got stuck with inventory I have no use for now.

Well I guess it is sorta useful. It's under my desk in a box that I use to prop my feet up on for the last 2 years while I do my adult work.
