Hey guys.
So I live in New York City as the name suggests. One of the benefits of living here is that we have access to A LOT of discounted merchandise that others do not have access to.
As an example. There's a store here called Century 21. They sell designer sunglasses but for MUCH cheaper than you can find anywhere else. I'm just spit balling here, but a pair of Ray Bans that normally cost $160 anywhere else could cost like $70 at this place.
A few years ago a good friend of mine took advantage of this and sold sunglasses exclusively on eBay. He made $80k in a year here (net), and he was not doing it full time whatsoever. I think he eventually went straight to the source for the sunglasses which made them even cheaper (as in he cut out Century 21). He has since moved out of the city because his "regular" career has skyrocketed, but he would be happy to provide me with his old contacts.
I would love to partner with someone and start an e commerce site that we could sell sunglasses on, or other merchandise that I could get by going to these places/take advantage of living in this city. There are also sample sales here happening ALL THE TIME, again something the rest of the world/country typically doesn't have access to, where designer items can be purchased for unbelievably cheap prices. We could resell those as well.
I know nothing about setting this up but I'm willing to learn. I was extremely motivated by Chris' e commerce article and know there are a lot of guys here who want to make cash. So we should do it together.
Let me know if you're interested.
Edit: I want to clarify that you do NOT need to live in NYC. If you do that's great, but the whole point is that we could take advantage of the fact that I live here.
