Hey all,
I have spent the past two/three months developing a PS2/XBOX video game retail site. A lot of time was put into setting up the site and adding item descriptions. I was going to apply for a reseller's license last week, but then my sales on my other site (www.SuperiorTraffic.net) sharply picked up. I'm now obligated to spend the remainder of my free time maintaining that site.
Since I now have much less time to spend with my video game retailing site, I decided that it would be best to just sell it as-is. It's nearly complete, but could use a little work with the shipping prices/tables. The UPS estimates are always correct, but I haven't been able to successfully generate Fedex or USPS prices. I'm sure someone with minimal/moderate knowledge of backend administration would be able to fix this.
Here are all of the details about the site I can think of:
-Company/Site name: Easy Electronix
-Site URL: http://www.EasyElectronix.com
-The site is made up of OSCommerce. It's a free internet utility that allows you to easily run a website with items for sale.
-OSCommerce provides the admin with a backend with more options than one could ask for, making administration extremely easy.
-There are currently 52 PlayStation 2 games and 62 XBox games available.
-The games are provided by an electronics media wholesale dropshipper. When an order is placed on Easy Electronix, the admin will proceed to the wholesaler site to place the order. The actual product will be dropshipped from the wholesaler to the customer- the owner needn't buy any inventory. The wholesaler even puts the retail company's name on the item.
-The prices are set up to make anywhere between $2-$5 per order. The average is a $3.25 markup on prices.
Please note that I haven't actually placed any orders with the dropshipper. However, they have received positive reviews everywhere I looked. I haven't been able to find anything negative about them. Signing up with the dropshipper is free, and there is no per-order cost- you simply pay them for the product and shipping. (Some wholesalers/dropshippers charge an additional $3-$5 per order as a handling fee.)
The site has a nice potential to make a steady income. I imagine Adwords would be very beneficial for the site.
I don't have a price in mind right now, so if you're interested, please make an offer. PM or replies work just fine. I'd be happy to answer any questions as well. Thanks.
Edit:
==========
I forgot to mention the following details:
-I will only share the name/URL of the wholesaler with people who have a very SERIOUS intention to buy the website.
-Most of the prices on Easy Electronix are better than the prices on Amazon.com. The wholesale prices are even better as you could imagine.
-The dropshipper also sells PC software, PC games, GameCube games, and ink cartriges.
