We were thinking that maybe it would be a good idea to start a outlet store for our recycling business in another larger town. The purpose would be to sell primarily builder machines and such for re-sellers. The fees and hassles associated with ebay and pay pal make them look less appealing all the time.

We currently have a computer shop here in town. We do repairs and refurbishing and such there the same as any computer shop. Recently we have had a large influx of nice Core 2 Duo laptops and towers that are well above scrap value. There are more of these than we could ever expect to sell in our store we have now. Not to mention that it is very busy with repairs and such also.



I wonder if another store front in another larger town would be a good idea. My partner and I have discussed this at length and it seems like a good idea except for managing a place without direct constant supervision. The town we were thinking of is approximately 200 miles away. Another idea is to put it in a place like Phoenix or South Texas (Mc Allen area).

Does anyone have any experience with this sort of thing? It would be a huge step.

We do have a web page up (I'ma-PC RECON - e-waste recycling), and there is the option of going with a shopping cart there and paying the fees to have it well placed in the search engines. We do own the domain name.

Ok, so what ideas do you good folks have out there. This community has been a huge blessing and has some wonderful ideas and support.

In closing I would like to make a suggestion of my own. If you are not a member please consider a membership. If you support what you believe to be a good thing it will continue to be there for you and maybe more importantly for those who come behind you.
