Pure Romance Consultants: What happens if I am VERY unhappy with my purchase? -

I purchased an vibrator from a party last night, brought it home, tried it out, and HATED it! I don t necessarily want my money back, I actually wanted a model she said she would have to order, and quite frankly, the party was quite racy and I didn t want to wait! The consultant recommended a similar model--Cowboy Up(I was interested in the New B.O.B.) which appeared to be very similar, but the problem is, the beads are too far down on the shaft, and the clitoral stimulator stimulated nothing for me, even on high, even with a secondary bullet involved!!! Would love to know what the company policy is on a very unsatisfied customer???

You need to speak to the consultant about a refund. If the company cares at all about customer service, they must have a policy. If they don t, contact the Better Business Bureau so future customers won t be blindsided by their refusal to take merchandise back from unhappy customers.

Their company policy is written right at the bottom of your order form. All Sales Are Final. Nutsmeg - do you even know what the product is? NO ONE takes these back, it s unsanitary. Your consultant MAY offer you another item at her discount if she chooses and she may do so if you ask. Report Abuse

Where do I find a distributor or wholeseller for my own branded product? -

I have a new company and have my own brand of products that I want to get into retail stores, mainly independent stores. Where can I find a distributor for my line of products? I can not find anything on google, maybe I m using the wrong search terms. Anybody with experience in this field that can offer any pointers?Thank you!

use the term deal rep or dealer representative and the product you re looking to sell.also look to see if there are trade groups for the type of product you sell. For instance... if you sold x-ray equipment there are tons of dealers who sell multiple lines of x-ray equipment.hope this helps.

These links are a good source of wholesalers - http://www.find-a-wholesaler.co.uk/http://www.gowholesale.com/http://productsearch.tradekey.com/wholsa��http://ezinearticles.com/?How-To-Find-RE��Your local phone directory should provide a list of wholesalers. You could use online Yellow Pages - http://www.google.com/search?q=Yellow+Pa��

this is a tough question....i want to preface this with saying that I have a lot of business experience... with that in mind, i understand that you as the company owner probably don t have much time to do this kind of thing on your own.. but here s the trade off.. pay some company a buttload of your profit? or.... do it yourself for a little while. ask yourself this. How many products can you produce per week or month? How well will they sell? how often will you need to restock the retailers? think about those things and that will tell you approximately how many retailers you can handle at the moment.... then YOU go out and find those retailers locally or regionally... keep up with them... TRACK their progress... be 100% hands on with the first few... they are your lifeline.. don t trust that to another company! once you ve maxed out, take your profits and expand your operations. for what it s worth, there are TONS of people who you can hire on a commission only basis that will literally go from store to store and sell your products to the store owners. they do the research, they do the sales, they make part commission on it.. I ve done this for companies. I was smart enough to be the person who hired a TEAM of people under me and gave them each areas to deal with, and managed them... i gave them a smaller cut of what i made per close and kept the rest ... plus made 100% commission of my own sales... i made damned good money doing it, and there are lots of other people who would gladly do the same for YOU. that s PROBABLY the best bet... you may have missed a key word a little bit ago... i said TRACK ......... track their progress.. track their sales... track the value of your product to the consumers...... if you can show that you re product is flying off the shelves, THEN you can go to a larger distributor and say look........... this product has done X, Y, and X over this many quarters, and i anticipate that with a certain amount of advertising and good distribution it should blah blah blah.... then you work out a deal with them and either sell out or distribute and expand further........ that s -the- best way to do it..

EASY 10 PTS!! i am 12 and i wanted to sell my stuff on the internet? -

im 12 and i wanted to use ebay or craigslist to sell my new but used DS games so i could use the money to buy some the problem is i dont know how to sell on ebay the only ting i no is i have to pay to get on ebay and sell and thats okay with my parents. so i wanted to know the steps on what i have to do like how do i get the money how do i give the person my game do i ship it or meet them someplace plz help and btw im doing this wth my parents supervision so i guess its okay

you can do ebay, its not very hard. you have to sign up for a selling account and it will require that you add one of your parents credit cards to the account. you may want to start the ebay account in one of your parents names, just to make it easier. if you can sign up for yahoo, its just as easy to sign up for ebay. once you start a selling account, it will walk you through how to sell something. the great thing about video games is that they have an automatic listing tool that allows you to just enter the title or UPC code and it pre-fills the information for you. just go to the category of video games and it will guide you the rest of the way. One thing to keep in mind is that you will not get a huge amount of money for used games. Dont expect to get nearly what you paid for them. only the really good titles get good money. you will owe money for every listing you create on ebay, so make sure you know how you are listing them. if you start a video game auction at 99 cents it may cost you 25 cents, or so in listing fees. you will also owe a final value fee which depends on how much your game goes for. you can collect the money through paypal, which requires a paypal account. This will require that your parents attach a credit card and bank account to their paypal account. In both cases, ebay and paypal, they are really secure. You can enter your information without really worrying about it getting stolen, so dont worry about that. when your buyer pays with paypal, it will go into your paypal account. it will just sit there and you can either transfer it to the bank account you have linked to it or use it to buy things online, or with ebay. You will be responsible for shipping the games to your buyers, i wouldnt suggest that you meet anybody in person. It takes too much time and you are only 12, so dont do it. You can have your buyer pay additional fees for shipping, or you can pay yourself with the money you earn from the game. Shipping for one game is typically about $2...you might want to charge about $3 to cover the cost of shipping and supplies. you can state your shipping charge when you list the item. As a last bit of advice, sell the games one-by-one, you will not get more money selling them all together in one auction, you will actually get less. Also, once your games sell, you can buy a new one on ebay and use the money that is in your paypal account. Once you start using ebay, you will get the hang of it. Its not hard at all and you can find things pretty cheap on there, especially used video games. Just make sure you dont buy any games from Hong Kong or china...they re bootleg. If you have any other questions about getting started, please ask. Good luck.

WHAT THE HELL!!!!!!!! My answer was totally easier to understand and I m even in the same situation but nooooooooooooo you had to choose some 50 year old s answer because it s nice and long and completely unorganized!!! : -( Report Abuse

do not do it on your own. GET a high school friend who has done it or preferably an adult.And fyi, fewer than 5% of people who sell on Ebay may any profit........if it is just to get rid of used CDs and stuff, ok.you still have to make sure the buyer pays you.--not at all a sure thing

Carefully label everything AS IS, and NO RETURNS.

Dont go for ebay its filled with hackers try this site its easy to use www.amazon.com

I m around the same age (I won t say what exactly because there might be rapists or pedophiles here) and I m selling my stuff I don t want on eBay with my dad. I asked my dad if he could make an account on eBay and help me sell my stuff I don t want. So he made a debit card so we can use it on eBay and to buy other stuff on the internet. So just ask your parents if they can help you because you need to be at least 18 to use eBay and I don t think you have your own credit or debit card. And it s not that easy because you have to ship what your selling and you need boxes and go to UPS, etc. So you definitely need your parents help with that. Don t forget you have to deal with costumers questions and complaints. And make sure you read the tutorials on eBay so you won t get scammed or anything. Also, when you sell stuff be fair and don t put AS IS or NO RETURNS on everything. You gotta have some costumer service. And if what Your selling is perfectly fine you don t need to put AS IS because usually people think it might be broken or something. And you have to make an estimate of the price of what your going to sell. You don t put a used item for the same price as new ones to sell on eBay, people use eBay to look for things in decent condition and a fair price lower than retail.http://pages.ebay.com/help/account/getti��P.S. You can look at Amazon too since it s safer than eBay and more commercial.

Starting up as a Property Developer, How much do i need to start with? -

Me and 3 of my friends are looking to start up, we have read up on a lot of different forums, but i have not really found the exact answer that i am looking for. i just want to know, when we come to approach a bank/building society or any other investor, how much do we need to have in a joint account already, and how much are we wanting to ask for, we want to start small, like a basic 2up 2down, or maybe a run down bungalow ? any advice please ?thanks

Difficult question to answer. It would really depend on the property you are considering buying. Cost of mortgage, repairs, upgrades, insurance, carrying cost etc. Impossible to say what the cost of any of those would be without having seen the property.

Well that s a bit like asking how long is a piece of string!!! It depends on what type of property you want to start with and how much it will cost in your area. Think about what you need . For example:Property purchase price = ��100,000 with an estimated cost of renovation at ��15,000 - so you need ��115,000. You also need ��5,000 to cover fees, surveys, insurance, planning applications etc and a contingency fund of ��10,000. So that brings it to ��130,000. You then need money to live off until the house is sold or let. You also need to sell the property at a profit, or rent in out at a figure that takes into account loan interest or loss of interest on any capital you have personally laid out.The property market is still not stable, you obviously have no experience and you want the business to provide a profit for 4 people. Having 4 people involved is 3 too many! A venture like this that starts out with just one property is really a venture for one person in order to maximise profit. It is going to be a very small profit when split 4 ways! The only way you will get a property at a low cost is to go to auction - beware, because they aren t always the bargain that they seem. And there are experienced developers out there who are having a tough time of it in today s market. To be honest, I think you are going to struggle to make this venture profitable due to lack of funding and lack of experience.

As a rough guide, you need at least a 25% deposit on the property you re interested in buying. That just covers the mortgage part. On top of that you need funds for renovating and, as Cala says, for planning fees etc. Always include at least a 10% contingency in case of unforeseen problems.If you go to auction, make sure you ve checked the property you re bidding on before the auction. It s too late to discover serious structural problems after you ve bought it. When the hammer comes down, you re in a legally binding contract.Draw up a legally binding agreement between the 4 of you. In any business, there are always disputes between partners and more often than not they re about money. Having an agreement in place can take the heat out of many disputes.The actual amounts that you need will depend on what part of the country you re in and what kind of property you want. A 2 up, 2 down will be a lot cheaper than a bungalow. They re always expensive because of the plot they re on. The experienced developers snap them up quickly.Beware, too, of property investment companies that promise to help get your property business started. Some ask you to pay funds to them and there s a recent case of one where both the partners are facing bankruptcy and investors have lost their money.Draw up a plan for your business so that you all agree on what you re going to do and you think about all aspects of it. Property development is a business, even if you think it s something you ll do in your spare time. Speak to your local Business Link, if you re in the UK. They re very good on helping with plans and also have a lot of knowledge about who to approach for finance and how to do it.Good luck!
