Chad, we should try and do suming like this as a group, I wanted to do this to, for some spare cash.

And p.s, I thought u were on vaca?

gpzjack · 03-18-2007, 08:32 PM

My main business is sunglasses.....i buy from a couple of places...I also do sales for other people. I sell alot of restaurant equipment and other big stuff. What i do is tell people to think about their interests and go from there. I know a guy that i talked to that was into fishing. He found some suppliers for fishing gear and started selling on ebay...he does pretty well. I actually have a ton of crap i want to sell cheap that could be a good ebay money maker. I want to sell it cause i don't have the time.

How did you get into that?

gpzjack · 03-19-2007, 12:04 PM

I went to trade show a while back...we ride and thought sunglasses for bikers would be a great thing to get into. I started on ebay ...then learned to build websites...i built www.shadesandmore.net then we learned how to do credit cards and it went from there. At work i run into alot of people and started sellign big stuff on ebay. I have my own trucking account and get decent rates for large items. Recently i bought a Vinyl cutting machine and now do lettering of trucks and making signs.... I do it all. LOL

If you guys are lookin for any advice i get together with my friends for a little networking group once a month...to share ideas and exchange advice on business stuff...hit me up.

dwl137 · 03-19-2007, 12:15 PM

RayArroyo · 03-19-2007, 03:33 PM

Yeh, really. I need a single bay deep sink with a left side drain board for my garage.

Anywho, I have a home based business, but I work at everyone else's home.
