    okay ive had several inquiries about my site, people wanting to give me $1k to start and then pay me off after a few months whilst sharing profits with me in the interim.

    The first person to come up with $2k which is half and pay me 15 percent of the profits until january 1st and the balance due by January 1st gets the site.

    This will probably not work for anyone outside of the u.s.a. unless they have contacts here that will ship products for them.

    Im telling you guys this is a no brainer for those of you who arent afraid to work a bit.

    Can you pm me this info,
    What are the profit margins on the '$1500-$2500' that it makes monthly w/o advertising (please be sure to include your shipping costs, not just sold price munus cost of item sold)?
    I assume you will disclose the advertising that you have used in the past years to make the site so successful?
    Who is the supplier?

    crynos the profit margins vary on a per order basis, i mark the products up anywhere from 60-100 percent and additional profit is made in the shipping, you can adjust the prices to whatever youd like. i would reccomend marking the prices a bit lower than the suppliers retail site, as many of my prices right now are too cheap in my own opinion. i have a little script that generates an html code where you can do a price comparison for each product showing up to 3 competitors prices witha link to their site showing the price(opens up in separate window) this can be used very effectively, i had this made recently and have not utilized it yet for this site.

    ive used google adwords exclusively in the past for this site however i have not used since last holiday season.

    if someone wants this site they better jump on it and get it prepped within the next 30-45 days so you are ready for the xmas shopping season.

    A deal i had with Tinnitus has fallen through. The site is back up for sale i will now take either $3000 cash, or $1500 and the balance due by january 1st, in either case i will provide support and shar my marketing knowledge.

    Beware of Tinnitus, unless you want to waste a lot of your time with empty promises, i asked several times if the deal was going to go through and i was assured it would, but no payment was sent as promised and all emails/pms/phone calls were ignored.

    Please do not waste my time, you can make a bunch of money with this site and i will direct you exactly how you can do this.


    you can email me directly at and my msn is my aim is suncruz75

    its no secret about the reseller ratings, i already disclosed the guy i previously sold the site to and then to and then took back from royally screwed me over with the site, i had to refund a bunch of orders because of his inability to keep up with the site.

    2 of the 3 complaints on there are from the guy who bought the site i will take responsibility for the third complaint, keep in mind 3 complaints on there out of several hundred orders

    I am very seriously interested.

    I am East Coast based...how long will shipping of products take to this area?

    How many products do you carry on average?

    Do you ship through USPS???

    I live in a remote area now and want to be sure I can fulfill orders to the customers.

    Feel free to PM me for further details and ideas.

    Hi,

    I had a sale pending with Semadvance however he has decided the site was not for him, he was frustrated because a few orders he received were for items out of stock, admittedly i have stressed all along the site needs to be updated with tons of the distributors new products but i believe semadvance has weeded out most of the out of stock products on the site.

    I will do a quick cash deal for $3000 if it can be completed within 3 days, otherwise id like i am asking $4000 with $1000 down and the balance due by january 1 2007.

    I have attached a screenshot of traffic stats which is all completely organic traffic.

    Since the 14th here are the sales since the cart was turned back on to accept orders.

    2748 10/23/2006 6:49PM $89.87 $0.00 $0.00 Visa, MasterCard, Amex, Discover or Paypal
    2747 10/22/2006 6:04PM $38.57 $0.00 $38.57 Visa, MasterCard, Amex, Discover or Paypal
    2746 10/19/2006 9:01PM $187.28 $0.00 $187.28 Visa, MasterCard, Amex, Discover or Paypal
    10/19/2006 9:05PM
    2745 10/17/2006 3:48PM $127.69 $0.00 $127.69 Visa, MasterCard, Amex, Discover or Paypal
    10/17/2006 3:53PM
    2744 10/16/2006 8:13PM $20.05 $0.00 $20.05 Visa, MasterCard, Amex, Discover or Paypal 10/16/2006 8:15PM
    2743 10/16/2006 6:06PM $34.98 $0.00 $0.00 Visa, MasterCard, Amex, Discover or Paypal
    2741 10/14/2006 8:03PM $42.70 $0.00 $42.70 Visa, MasterCard, Amex, Discover or Paypal

    There was also one other order totaling over $300 which was cancelled due to the item being out of stock.

    Please email me at still plenty of time to update the site and get it ready for some slamming sales this xmas.

    Ideally the new buyer lives in the northeast or souther u.s.a. the shipper is from Georgia.

    Hi blademaster

    Since I own several online retail websites, I have read your whole thread.

    I'd highly suggest you remove your customers' names from your last post. You may even lose your merchant account for putting your customers' names at a public forum.

    Good luck with the sale.

    I wanted to say a few things too about this.

    blademaster is a sincere and concerned owner. His business works well and has wonderful profits to say the least. If you like profit margins of over 30% and more this is the one to buy!!

    The site is set up well, easy to navigate. The Volusion Shopping cart or the back end of this site is has to be the best I have seen and I have worked with quite a few, email admin product admin sale pricing coupons and conversion tracking reports everything is there to run this business easily.

    I updated all of the products manually myself so everything on the site is available at the distributor. I also added 50 products or more to the cart and each of these had search engine optimization done to them to help improve the already nice traffic coming to the site daily.

    The email list on this one is worth the price alone.

    Were I not so busy with other endevors I would keep this,,,,but I am falling behind in other partner work and client work and trying to run and market blademasters is too much for me right now :(


    Thank you blademaster for the opportunity..

    let me chime in some profit margins can be up to 300-400 percent above the wholesale cost on many of the items the distributor carries.
