March 10th, 2010 by richermo
Is the customer forced to accept this notice in the description. Isn’t there a Ebay rule or policy that tells the seller to add this 4% immediatly on the auction price. Now the seller is asking me to make a second payment 4% worth de price of the item to pay for the Paypal seller’s commission he had to pay for.
Thank you very much to Judy H.

Costco Salvage And How It Can Make You Money
March 10th, 2010 by richermo
It’s the modern day quest that captures thousands – how to find an ideal wholesale supplier with great wholesale products to retail. The internet is awash with information about where to go and what to do, but who can you really trust and how do you recognize that you’re getting a good deal?
One of the most favored searches in recent times has been to locate a Costco salvage company. Basically, a Costco salvage company is a liquidator that purchases excess Costco stock in bulk and resells it to retailers at a discount price. We all know the great quality of products that are available in Costco, so if you are able to cash in on that action and acquire them at discount, you can see why it seems like a pretty good idea.
Let’s take an example of a situation – Costco returns what happens to the closeout products? When you return an item to Costco because it doesn’t work, or you just don’t like it; instead of attempting to resell the item – they simply allot these to a returns bin located in their own warehouse. Because they are such a large company, they have set arrangements with wholesale liquidators to purchase all their discount merchandise in bulk. Typically, a liquidator would pay as little as two per cent of the original purchase cost to take these goods from Costco.
When you see advertisements for a Costco salvage company, you should first understand that you will be getting a awfully good deal on the price that you are going to pay. However, generally speaking what happens to the items is that they are resold in bulk and you won’t know exactly what you are buying until it arrives. You may find that as much as 50% of the items are damaged and unsellable, while the others may have minimal faults.
One good point to note however, is that although not all the products may be sellable to your direct customers, there are parties who are interested in purchasing damaged goods. For example, an electrician may be interested in a bulk purchase of faulty electrical goods, as they will be able to make the necessary repairs and sell them on to their own shoppers at profit. So it’s important that you think of where you can make yourself a profit before dismissing items as being junk.
When you realize that the goods that you have purchased may cost you as little as five per cent of the retail price, you can see that even if you did only sell items which were in perfect condition, you would still be able to make a profit.
Your wholesale liquidator will be happy to provide you more advice about purchasing Costco salvage company returns; and many give a brief description of the sorts of items that are contained within the bulk lots. Not only do these wholesalers deal in Costco returns, you might also be able to snag yourself a bargain from overstock supplies, which are in perfect condition to resale. Utilizing these ways of sourcing can make for an extremely profitable way to manage your business.

Tips for Finding Websites That Are For Sale
March 10th, 2010 by Richard Molly
Although you could build a website from scratch, you’ve made the choice to purchase an existing one. Or, you are an investor looking to “flip” a website after enhancing its value. Either way, you now have to find a website to buy.
Your first task is to outline what you are looking for as a website can be used for many different reasons. Some of the purposes include an established database of clients for your product or services, an income from others with links on the website, to hold the domain name for an anticipated future trend, to enhance then resell at a profit, or to sell to a larger competitor down the road. Now that you know what you want it to do you know what to look for.
One way is to search website trading sites. Here is not where you find bargains.Don’t rule it out though if you are looking for something specific.
Search engines can also prove useful.The initial handful that comes up in a search first will be the “crme de la crme” – the best managed sites that would be quite costly to purchase if available at all. It is possible this is what you need, but it is more likely that you will need to scroll down and page forward a bit. As you go deeper you will locate the bargains that may be just what you need.Scanning a few of those best managed sites is still a good idea to provide insight into what you will need to compete with later with your enhancements.
When buying real estate the mantra is “location, location, location” – with a website purchase it is “research, research, research.” You would take more due diligence to buying a house than in renting a vacation rental – so should it be when making the long term investment into a website.
Research each site that you think might fit the bill carefully. Take your time when exploring the site – read the forums, check the links, determine the history.Don’t be afraid to ditch one if something is beyond repairing through your enhancement plan – better to walk away before money is on the table.
There is a fair amount of risk when buying a website but by using your head and taking your time, you can minimize the risk.
