Hi there,

Could you provide specific questions you have about the business that way it makes it a little easier for me.

Just to note though with this site you basically take orders (your customers pay you) then you go to the dropshipper and order the product they order and the dropshipper sends the product out.

I will teach the new owner how to update the site inventory and products etc...

The site is running on oscommerce.

I am not affiliated with the dropshipper.

Any traffic stats?

Thanks

Nice site! What is the average profit margin per lighter? Your price would be a wholesale price, correct? I mean, if you only make fifty cents per lighter, it would hardly be worth it.

Hi,


The prices are wholesale.
I currently have the site prices marked up 100% (MFSRP) so you can take the prices of the lighter divide it in half and that will be your profit / lighter.

Thanks, you have the highest offer. I will post a BIN this evening or feel free to PM a closing offer.

I just realized I forgot to mention something regarding stats.

The other day I actually moved the site from one server to the other so the stats above are up to April 17 and a bit of the 18th.

The new stats started also on the 17 (iguess some locations had access before others) and there have been 127 visits. (some from here of course)

The new stats also show traffic coming from google, yahoo and dmoz.

Some other keywords used to find the site were:
2006 zippos
scrimshaw wolf lighter
tattoo zippos

I am going to set the BIN @ $835 but it is open to an offer.
Current offer stands at $600.

Final bids will be accepted until 2pm PST tomorow.

I just changed the sites IP address so the site may appear down briefly in some areas.

Other than the margins which you also posted about. What other fees are involved with the dropshipper? Is there a minimum order fee or any handling and shipping fees? What about returns, what is the current policy? Where is the dropshipper located? Lastly, how do you make the orders with the dropshipper, is it online, phone, fax? Thanks.

Other fees by the dropshipper are shipping fees but this is passed on to the buyer. (6.95) There is no minimum order. However, there is a charge for orders below $9.95 The charge is $4.50. Most zippos are above this cost.

Every zippo comes with the zippo manufacture warranty so if there is a problem with the zippo etc... the customers just has to send it to them and zippo will repair or replace the zippo.

Here are the dropshippers return policy:
Prior Authorization is required for all returns. All nondefective returns should be in original, unmarked packaging, include all instructions, packaging etc. and be resalable as new. Returns to dropshiper of nondefective merchandise before 30 days from the invoice date from dropshiper to the purchaser are subject to 15% restocking fee. Refused shipments will be subject to a 15% restocking fee. dropshiper will not accept returns of nodefective merchandise after 30 days. dropshiper is not a warranty repair station. All returns of defective items should be made to the manufacturer after 30 days. Please contact your salesperson for manufacturer return information.

The dropshipper is located in Florida.

All orders are placed via the dropshippers website.

I am extending the offers time fram until 8pm PST due to the IP change.
