I will prolly set up a site for it, just cause I can do it for free LOL, but it will be kind of a supply and demand, for the first few months I won't be able to make much, but once I figure out what kind of qunatity I can move then I can order more and hence make more.



I figure 3 to 5% in the first few months, then 10% when I can move some volume, obviously I would want to come in well below the retail stores.

You can't it's damn hard to find for a reasonable price, that is why I think I can make it happen and I am less gready then all the other people out there so I could have lower prices.

Yea something similar to that, but I won't carry products people don't want, so not such a wide line. the stuff ou guys want I will get, otherwise screw it. But I don't have all the expenses that most websites are faced with, ie hosting, design, SSL, etc, etc...

I dont think you will be able to carry 3M products, they dont let just anyone sell it. If you need a specific 3M product, myself or someone else can send it to you. I love the Perfect-it III system now. They have several Perfect-it III compounds, Perfect-IT III Machine Glaze, Perfect-It III finishing glaze, special foam pad to go on a DA to apply the Finishing Glaze if you dont want to do it by hand, even special wipes. The whole line is THAT much better then the Perfect-It, or the Perfect-It II or the old Finesse-It.

Yea I know I am getting the paperwork from the distributor, the only real requirement they have is case purchases, there is some other ****, but it is doable from what I was told on the phone. You can pretty much buy anything you want from the distributor, you just have to buy in cases, which is what I was talking about. The same distributor sells Meguires and several other lines.

They have no rules regarding reselling the stuff?

I dunno, haven't got all the paperwork. Autoparts stores sell the **** I wouldn't see a big issue, but I will find out when I get the **** here.



He didn't really say anything about that, he said they have minumum orders and case pricing, so I'll see when it gets here.
