I agree with In2ishun --- Quote from: In2ishun on October 02, 2005, 01:08:17 am --- --- Quote from: Peale on October 01, 2005, 10:43:11 am ---It's an odd thing: there seem to be more and more projects popping up, but my sales on parts have dwindled to nearly nothing. --- End quote --- In terms of internet marketing and "store front", most savvy people will not shop from some sub-directory of a family owned website. When I shop online, I'm looking for the credibility that comes from a domain name owned by a company whose name is on the front page. --- End quote --- That store front does not instill a sense of buyer confidence. Plus there is a difference between saving 50 dollars and 50 cents. I usually will not spend hours searching and comparison shopping, when the best result might only save a few bucks. |

I've always been proud of the prices I've been able to offer. --- Quote from: ascar9 on October 02, 2005, 02:26:29 am ---That store front does not instill a sense of buyer confidence.

And no, it's not a major source of income (barely any, actually). I started it when I couldn't find some of the parts I wanted at a price I wanted to pay, unless I bought them in bulk. I thought to myself, "I bet others feel the same" so I did buy them in bulk, and turned around the savings to help the community. Turnaround has actually been very good - up until recently. I've just been curious about the dropoff. As for product selection, sometimes it's limited by what *I* can get. But I'm always eager to hear what people want. Molex wiring kit? That sounds like an interesting idea. And I'll see what I can do about yellow wire. I mean, I already have red and black, so... |

Why do you think i havent ordered a wire kit? --- End quote --- If it was on *just* CC orders, I'd consider that as well. Paypal takes their cut from ALL orders when you upgrade. |
