My friend recently opened a online shop, sell toys, I'm not sure when she started, just found out today. On-line shops nowdays are very popular, friends around me buy frequently, cause it's cheaper and conveient. But making the shop a bestselling one is not an easy thing, there's a lot to learn. Do you have an online shop? Do you buy things on line, what do you buy the most if you buy on line?

I personally do not. But I know a couple of people who have their own shop on etsy.com.

Hello Pam, long time no see. Thanks for sharing. I'm considering opening one but still have no idea what to sell and how to source the products.

Well, thru one Business that I have actually incorporated into my Business that is registered here in the State of WA, I do have a Website where people can shop from, and then I also have stuff a lot of the time listed on Etsy.com or Yard-SellR.com as well. Eventually I would love to get everything pretty much grouped into just one type of main site but how I am doing it for now along with my offline Store it all has to work for me this way.

Wow, you got two shops? What did you sell? Managing an online shop is as difficult as an actual shop. Do you have work and open the online shop as part-time job or you stay at home to operate the shops?

I do not have a shop yet, however I do set some of my items upon Etsy. And I plan on putting some things on Ebay. I sell Art on these sites. I really dont buy to much online except for occasionally I buy things from Ebay because the prices are so much better. I think its about word of mouth and luck of the draw.

Hello, ladygator, thanks for sharing. If you buy things on line, will you choose a certain brand? I know some of the shoppers visit shopping malls and choose the clothes, or shoes or others, and then search on the internet to find a cheaper one. And most of the cases, they will find what they want.

Online business is becoming very popular indeed, selling things, providing services, promoting travel business, and so on. To be successful, it is very important to bring it up to the attention of surfers. I have been thinking about it too.

Yes, I couldn't agree more, birng the shop to the attention of surfers are the key items to the sales volume and the profit. But I found it also difficult to find the resources, find a factory or product provider. Do you have any ideas to sell what kind of products?

I have an online shop which sells collectibles like hard to find Sanrio items or the limited ones in Japan only. I like shopping online too! I bought all my swimsuits online since i can buy branded items at a much cheaper price and the size are all the same so i don't have any problems with that.

No, I don't have an online shop but I intend to have one soon. At the place where I am working, we always buy airticket online.

Thanks for sharing. I haven't bought air ticket yet. But I buy clothes and books. A couple of days ago, I bought a humidifier, cause the air-conditioner in the office makes the place very dry.
