    Looking to sell:
    www.shopscifi.co.uk
    I have a rough price in mind, but I am looking for intersted parties.
    Main stock is provided via one wholesaler - on a fufillment basis.
    Sale includes Customer db

    Dmoz listed
    More information: http://www.urltrends.com/viewtrend.php?url=http://www.shopscifi.co.uk/

    Around 30 uniques a day - only 1-2 sales a month BUT huge potential

    80 registered customers

    The site has had little done to it for a long time. Was submitting to froogle but stopped.

    Huge potential for someone with link building skills and some spare time.

    Not an auction - but I will consider bids, though I have a reserve price in mind.

    Umm, you need to post monthly profits surely rather than the amount of traffic and customers.

    Hmmm. Not very tempting.

    I see a site in decline, very little traffic and only 1 - 2 sales a month, presumably with some affiliate income of 5% - 10% gross value. What does that make it in monetary terms? £10 per month?

    Can you give any clues as to the price you are thinking? PM me if you don't want to say it "aloud".

    Hi the site has been a little neglected of late in all honesty.
    It has reached a turning point, do we put in effort and some money to revitalise it or is there someone else interested in taking this project on.

    Looking at interest and then we will make a decision on the future.

    Can you answer the question about how much it makes per month?

    How many items sold? What profit margin?

    Well, what sort of ball-park figure are you talking about - $$$, $$$$? I'm fairly sure that will be the deciding factor for any potential buyer.

    This is on a dropship basis, right? The wholesaler sends the stuff out to the customer, is this right?

    What kind of profit margin do you have on your products? Do products go and in and out of stock often or is it pretty solid in that regard?

    I'm interested but I need some more details on these issues. This is a serious enquiry, so please either post here or PM me.

    Sorry to clarify.
    I was just really looking for a general interest.
    I will contact those interested via PM.

    Thank you again.
