Online Furniture Shop - Dropshipping

Hi all,

Bit of information about the site:

We used to sell furniture on it using suppliers that were able to send out single items. We used a courier (XDP) to ship items directly from the suppliers to our customers. Why did we stop? Went from online to an offline shop where local people can order items. This worked out better for us and gave us little time to continue the site really.

Margin roughly: 25%

Advertising used: Google adwords, Google Base, other shopping websites where you can upload product feeds on. We also used senukeX.

Most sales came through from shopping sites such as google shopping. So for those interested you'll have to use those and make sure you keep your product feeds updated.

Security badges have expired since we obviously stopped paying for them

Roughly 2500 products on the site. Ranging from small lamp tables to full bedroom sets. Sales were between £800 and £2000 a day. Proof can be provided to those interested by pm or by creating a login to our back office.

Site is in catalogue mode as we won't have time to process orders.

No stock so no warehouse needed. Orders are put through online with the suppliers. Only time you will hold stock is when an item gets returned.

Google analytics stats can be seen (you will be added to our account so you can have a closer look as well)

Started in early 2012 and stopped early this year.

Included in the sale:

Domain
Supplier list
Courier information
Full list of sites we used to have our product feeds on
Facebook page (pretty much unused though!)
Help to get things started so you can have those first order rolling in quickly.

Just send me a message if you need to know more or leave me a number (we are based in the UK) and we'll give you a call.

This is NOT a leave the site alone and the money rolls in... Lots of work involved on a daily basis!
