    Welcome to the forum from another escapee of the Green Machine(retired GySgt) still living in Jacksonville.

    The only suggestion I have is be very careful in your growth. You can find yourself with a lot of inventory and if prices drop you can get stuck holding the bag.

    When I was commercial fishing I was advised the if i caught all the fish in the ocean and didn't have a market for them all I would have is a lot of dead fish. You need to keep you eye on who you sell to and try not to get caught with too much inventory. Best of luck, Mike.

    "Profit begins when you buy NOT when you sell." {quote passed down to me from a wise man}

    Now go beat the copper out of something, Miked
